Removing the Ash from the Firebox
CAUTION: Do not remove the ash when the insert or ash is hot.
To remove the ash, swing open the left and right side doors and
open the front door. Vacuum or scoop out the ash on the bottom
and side of the firebox.
CAUTION: Disposal of ashes should be placed in a metal con-
tainer with a tight fitting lid. The closed container should be
placed on a non-combustible floor or the ground, well away from
all combustibles materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes
are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed,
they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders
have been thoroughly cooled.
Cleaning the Convection Blower
To clean the convection blower, remove the left side door (see the following
page). Disconnect the insert power cord from the electrical outlet. Loosen
the two screws (A in Figure 39) securing the blower to the blower duct.
Slide the blower toward the outside of the insert - disengaging it from the
blower duct. A vacuum can be used to remove any dust accumulation on
the blower’s blades or inside the blower duct. Caution should be used not
to damage the blower’s blades during cleaning. Before reinstalling, vacuum
out the blower housing and flue passageway leading to the combustion
blower To reinstall the blower, slide the blower back into the retaining
lip B and retighten screws A.

Proof of Fire Switch
This switch needs to be removed and cleaned after every 100 bags of
fuel burned.
Cleaning Procedure:
1. UNPLUG STOVE!
2. Locate the switch on the combustion blower (see Figure 43).
3. Using a flat-head screwdriver, remove the 2 screws which secures
the switch to the blower housing.
4. Using a dry cloth, wipe off any flyash build-up on the sensor portion
of the switch.
5. Reinstall switch. Ensure wires are properly connected to the switch
and the connectors are not making contact with the blower housing.
Close side panel.
Note: Failure to clean the proof of fire switch when needed may
result in nuisance shut-downs because the fly-ash build-up insulates
heat from reaching the switch.
(Recommended Frequency of 1 year or after every 100 bags of fuel
used)
Adjustable Hopper
The Winslow™ PI40 insert is shipped with the 55 pound hopper. With
the larger hopper installed, that part of the insert that slides into the
fireplace is 22-1/2” (572 mm) high. For installations in smaller fireboxes,
the hopper is adjustable down to a height of 19” (483 mm). To adjust the
hopper to its lowest height of 19” (483 mm), remove screws C around
the hopper lid and lift the lid off. Next, remove the screws D around the
hopper extension and remove the extension. Place the lid back over the
hopper and reinstall the screws securing the lid.
To adjust the hopper height between the maximum and the minimum,
remove screws D and slide the hopper extension (with lid attached) down
around the hopper bottom to the height desired. The extension can be
lowered at most 2-1/2” (64 mm). Reinstall the self-tapping screws through
the holes in the extension (creating new holes in the hopper bottom).
