Burn Pot Cleaning and Maintenance
1. Scrape the top holed surface and sides of the burn
pot.(Fig 33) It is not necessary to completely remove all
material from the burn pot. The excess will be pushed
out during the next use.
2. Loosen the (2) wing thumb screws on the lower front
angle of the burn pot. (Fig. 34)
3. Lift off the clean-out cover (Fig.35) to open the bottom
clean-out chamber. (Fig.36)
4. Clean ash buildup from inside the chamber while
cover is off. Use the scraper to tap on the top front
edge of the burn pot. This will help knock pieces of
ash, loosened by the scraping process, down through
the holes. It also helps knock scale off of the igniter
element.

The igniter is made to be removable for service
by insulated male/female wire connectors. These
connections between the hot leads (the wires inside
the burn pot) and the cold leads (the wires from the
control board) are always pulled to the inside rear of
the feeder body. (Not coiled inside the burn pot.)
It is very important that these connections are
to the inside rear of the feeder body. Also, the extra
wire of the igniter wire service loop must be pulled out
through the rear of the feeder and tied up so that it will
not be damaged by any moving parts.
WARNING
Use caution when cleaning burn pot clean-out
chamber. Do not damage the high temperature
igniter wires.
