MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING
5.1 To maintain efficient combustion the stove is fitted with a
steel baffle in the top of the firebox.
5.2 Allow the stove to cool fully before removing the baffle.
5.3 To remove the baffle, first remove the Log Guard from the
stove to give access to the firebox.
5.4 Remove the Baffle by lifting the front edge to clear the
support bars, then pull the baffle forward to disengage the
rear edge from the location above air inlet holes. Rotate the
baffle to remove from the firebox through the door
opening.
5.5 The replacement of the system is the reverse of the previous
operations, ensuring it is replaced the correct way around.
5.6 It is important to remove the clean Baffle System to ensure
the flue ways are clear of soot and debris and to ensure the
safe and efficient operation of the stove. The frequency of
cleaning will depend on the stove operating conditions.
5.7 The baffle system is designed to give safe and efficient
operation of the stove. Replace any damaged baffles
immediately.
5.8 Do not modify the baffle system.
6.1 As part of the routine maintenance of the stove you may
have to remove the firebricks from the stove. This can be
carried-out without the use of tools, but the bricks must be
removed and replaced, after removing the baffle system.
6.2 Allow the stove to cool fully before removing firebricks.
6.3 Replace the bricks in the reverse order from removal.
6.4 Care should be taken when handling bricks, as they can
become fragile after a period of use. This is normal and the
life will depend on the type of fuels burn and the level of
use. Damaged bricks should be replaced as soon as
possible, and can be purchased from your Stovax dealer.
