ASH REMOVAL
The Cape Cod is equipped with an ash removal system. We recommend emptying the ash pan at least
once a week when the stove is in constant operation. The amount of ash is dependent on the type of wood
being burned. DO NOT ALLOW ASHES TO BUILD UP IN THE ASHPAN UNTIL THEY REACH THE
GRATE. THIS WILL LEAD TO PREMATURE DETERIORATION OF THE GRATE AND MAKE IT
DIFFICULT TO EMPTY THE ASH PAN.
To empty the ash pan and dispose of ashes:
1. Allow the stove to cool completely.
2. CAUTION ! Ash coals can remain extremely hot for several days. Protect your hands with
gloves when removing the ash pan.
3. DO NOT OPERATE WITH ASH PAN DOOR OPEN OR WITH ASH PAN REMOVED. Open
ash drawer beneath the stove. The hinged door will swing open. Pull ash pan out carefully.
4. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight tting lid. The closed container of ashes
should be placed on a noncombustible oor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials,
pending nal disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they
should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
5. Replace ash pan and close ash door.
