Osburn Stoves by SB I HYBRID-45 MF - Manual (Page 16)

FAILURE TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN THIS UNIT AS
INDICATED CAN RESULT IN POOR PERFORMANCE AND
SAFETY HAZARDS. NEVER CLEAN WHEN HOT.
NOTE: Inspect burn pot periodically to see that holes have not
become plugged. If so, clean thoroughly.
ASH REMOVAL
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid.
The closed container or ashes should be placed on a
noncombustible surface or on the ground, well away from all
combustible materials pending final disposal. If ashes are
disposed of by soil burial or otherwise locally dispersed, they
should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have
thoroughly cooled.
ASH DISPOSAL
The Osburn Hybrid-45 MF has an ash bin located below the
firebox. To remove ashes:
a.
Make sure fire is out and the firebox is cool.
b.
Open the door and remove the baffle from the firebox. Close
the door.
c. With the door closed, clean heat exchanger tubes by
activating the cleaning rod back and forth from front to back.
(see Cleaning section and Figure 18 & 19) .
d. Open the door and remove the burn pot by grasping it and
pulling straight out. Scrape the burn pot with a scraper if
necessary. Make sure that the burn pot holes are not
plugged. Empty ashes from the burn pot into the pedestal
ash bin through the opening at the bottom of the firebox. Put
the burn pot back in place. Make sure it is level and pushed
all the way in.
e. Scrape the ashes in the firebox into the pedestal ash bin
through the opening or the bottom of the firebox or vacuum
to remove ashes.
WARNING: Make sure ashes are cool to the touch
before using a vacuum. See “VACUUM USE”.
f. Periodically remove and empty the ash bin (see Figure 20)
by opening the front lid of the pedestal below the ash lip.
Dispose of ashes properly.
(See “ASH REMOVAL” above)
g. Put the ash bin back into place, making sure that you
tighten the knob and maintain a good seal. Inspect gasket
at the same time to make sure it is in good condition.
