Maintenance and cleaning

Technical service – MCZ S.p.A. all rights reserved - Reproduction prohibited

Never clean the refractory material with a damp cloth

or anything else, as it may be stained.
Use a dry paintbrush if necessary to remove heavy

soot build-up.

If the Alutec does not whiten, it is not to be

considered as a defect in light of the warnings and

instructions above.

7.1.4. Lubrication and routine maintenance of the
extensible guides

All of the doors of the fireplace stoves are mounted on extensible
ballbearing guides that ensure a robust, sturdy system that provides

silent movement.
Prolonged use and the heat of the fireplace stove gradually depletes the

lubricant in the guides. This will cause them to become less efficient

and noisier.
If necessary, periodically grease both runners as follows:

Pull open the frame liner and extract the door so you can see

the tracks of the guide.

Using the provided grease gun, apply two drops of grease,

about 5 mm in diameter, at the highest visible point of the

runners. Do not exceed the recommended amount!

Perform this operation on both guides. Keep in mind that the

total amount of grease to be used is about 0.5ml (see

graduated scale on grease gun).

After lubrication:

Put the glue gun back and conserve it

Lower and raise the door completely at least 6 or 7 times so

that the grease is spread onto all of the other components of

the guides to complete lubrication. You should notice a

substantial improvement in ease of movement and noise

reduction.

It is advisable to carry out this operation at the end of

the season of use, or whenever the runners become
too noisy.
Do not use other types of grease. If the grease gun

runs out, request an MCZ original replacement.

7.1.5. Maintenance of kit VF (if installed)

The maintenance of all electrical parts (fan, control

unit, etc.) must only be carried out with no electrical

power supplied and with the unit unplugged.

7.1.5.1.

Electric fan

Periodically, and at least at the end of each winter, it is advisable to

clean the fan blades, which may have suctioned up dust or other small

foreign bodies due to the static pressure exercised by the fan along the

air ducts.
Clean the fan blades only with compressed air or with a vacuum

cleaner. Take care not to damage the rotor or the fan blades.
