7.5 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, as this will greatly reduce the life
span of the ash pan itself.
To remove the ash pan ALWAYS USE the supplied gauntlets & 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. 6.).
• Carefully withdraw the ash pan from the fire box 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 GAUNTLETS 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.
WARNING : ALWAYS USE THE STOVE GAUNTLETS SUPPLIED.
Extreme care must be taken if the appliance is under fire, risk of injury or burn.
