7.6 Ash removal
The ash pan should be emptied when the level of ash reaches the top of the ash pan.
On no account should the ash be allowed to build up to touch the underside of the grate, as
this will greatly reduce the life span of the grate.
To remove the ash pan ALWAYS USE the supplied glove & operating tool -
• Open the door of the stove, pausing briefly when ajar so as to allow the fire to
adjust to the increased air supply.
• Insert the fork end of the operating tool into the ash pan (see Fig. 7.).
• Carefully withdraw the ash pan from the ash pit chamber.
• Empty the ash into a suitable metal container. Replace the ash pan into the stove,
reversing the above procedure and close the fire door.
WARNING : Ash can be very HOT!!. Care must be taken not to burn hands or
household objects with falling embers—ALWAYS USE THE STOVE HOT GLOVE
SUPPLIED.
Empty only into a metal container. Even if the ash appears cold, red hot embers maybe
concealed and could easily start a fire or cause an injury.
