ASHES - REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL
1. Be sure heater has cooled before beginning.
2. Remove 12, 8-32 x ¼ screws and glass re-
tainers with screw driver.
3. Remove damaged glass (2).
4. To reinstall glass, follow steps 1-2 in reverse
order. Be sure to replace the gasket on the
glass.
5. Caution: Do not operate with broken glass.
6. When removing broken glass, wear thick
gloves, and safety glasses. Keep children
away. Discard broken glass.
Ashes should not be allowed to accumulate inside
the heater to the point that they obstruct airflow
through the burning wood. If ashes obstruct the
airflow, poor burning of the wood is likely.
When removing ashes from the heater, wear non-
combustible gloves to protect your hands from hot
surfaces. Remove the ash dump cover exposing the
hole in the bottom of the firebox. Rake ashes through
the hole into the ash pan in the pedestal using an
ash shovel. Put the ash dump cover back in place
before removing the ash pan. Remove ash pan and
dump ashes into a safe, noncombustible container.
Replace the ash pan after dumping the ashes.
