Please note that no unauthorised alterations of the design may be undertaken, and that
any parts that are replaced must be replaced with original Morsø parts.
Gaskets
Over time, the gaskets in the door will wear and should be replaced as needed in order to
prevent wild combustion. Use the original Morsø gasket kit.
Note: Normal wearing parts are not covered by Morsø’s extended warranty.
A selection of maintenance products (spare parts, glass cleaner, paint, gasket kit, etc.) is avail-
able from your Morsø dealer.
3.3 Cleaning the stove
In particular on the topside of the bae plates, layers of ashes and soot will form as a result
of the chimney draft and after a sweep.
The bae plates may be taken out of the stove under normal cleaning. When they are re-
moved, there is access to clean the ue chamber above the bae plates.
The bae plates are cleaned before they are reinserted, and care should be taken that they
are properly put in place.
Nowadays, the chimney sweep must remove the soot in the stove, in addition to sweeping
the chimney and cleaning the ue pipe. The number of annual sweepings/cleanings of the
stove should be determined in consultation with your chimney sweep.
Ash
As noted above, there should be a layer of approx. 1 cm insulating ash in the bottom of the
combustion chamber in order to achieve a high combustion temperature. If the layer of ash
is too thick, it can be brushed down into the ash pan.
Empty the ash pan before it gets completely full so that the ash does not insulate around
the grate, and thereby speed up the burn-through.
In most cases, the ash will need to be taken away by the waste disposal company. Because
embers may be concealed in the ash pan for several days, it may be necessary to store the
ash in a container made of non-ammable material before pouring it into a rubbish bag.
Ash from a wood-burning stove will not be of any benet to your garden as fertiliser. If you
have burned colour brochures, or painted or treated wood, etc., in the stove, the resulting
ash must not be poured onto soil as it may contain heavy metals.
