NOTE: The baffle in this stove is heavy. Moving
the baffle around inside the stove takes strength
and patience. Removing hardware exposed to
combustion processes can be frustrating. If your
reason for removing the baffle is simply to clean
the chimney, you have alternatives which will save
time and effort. Call a qualified chimney sweep or
an authorized Heat-N-Glo dealer for details.
1. Remove all ash from the firebox, and
extinguish all hot embers before disposal into
a metal container.
2. Remove the kaowool blanket from above the
baffle.
3. Remove the firebrick from the sides of the
stove.
4. With a 3/16” allen wrench, remove the
secondary combustion tube retainer bolts on
the secondary air channel under the end of
each tube. NOTE: Soak the bolts with
penetrating oil for at least 15 minutes before
trying to remove them.
5. To remove the secondary combustion tubes,
slide the tube to one side until one end is out
of its hole. Then, while lifting that end of the
baffle plate, pull the tube up over the secondary
air channel and out of the hole at the other end.
NOTE: When replacing the secondary tubes,
be sure the tube with the larger holes is placed
in the front for the WS-250.
6. To remove the baffle plate, use both hands to
lift it from the alignment pin at the center rear.
Then tilt the baffle as you slide it to one side,
until the other side clears the shelf.
7. Keep the baffle tilted as you lift it out the door.
8. To install the baffle, repeat steps 2 through 7
in reverse. Be sure that the hole in the baffle
is on its alignment pin on the rear shelf.
