CLEANING THE EXCHANGER AND PIPE UNIT
(SUITE/MUSA and CLUB):
CLEANING THE UPPER COMPARTMENT
When the stove is cold, remove the top, remove the ceramics/ sides as
described in section.3.3., loosening the relative fastening screws before
removing the drivers “B” and then remove the boiler cover “C”. At this
point, remove the turbulators “D” and using a rigid rod or a bottle
brush, clean the internal pipe unit and the turbulators, removing all of
the accumulated ash.
Check the cover gasket and replace it if necessary
ATTENTION: It is advisable to carry out the cleaning of the
upper exchanger at the end of the season and possibly by an
authorised MCZ technician in order to replace the gasket that
is below plug “C”. (fig.16a).
CLEANING THE LOWER COMPARTMENT
Remove the ash drawer “G”, empty it and using the nozzle of a vacuum
cleaner remove any ash and soot that may have built up under the
drawer “G”. Also remove the grate “F” and clean it every 2/3 days as
explained in chap. 5.1.
Remove the drawer “E”, empty it and using the nozzle of a vacuum
cleaner remove any ash that may have built up in the housing of the
drawer “E”.
ATTENTION: It is advisable to carry out the cleaning of the
lower compartment “E” once a week and in any case
according to the fuel consumption.
Check the seal of the ceramic fibre gaskets on the plug and replace it if
necessary.
Check the seal of the door gasket and replace it if necessary.
At the end of the season it is necessary to clean the compartment
under the grate and the heat exchanger inside it.
This general cleaning should be carried out at the end of the season in
order to facilitate the general removal of all residues of combustion,
without waiting too long, because with time and humidity these
residues can become compacted.
