WARNING
Cast iron is a very heavy material. The baffl e is
made of cast iron and therefore is heavy and awk-
ward at times to maneuver. Clear and prepare
your work area before you begin.
a. The appliance must be in complete shutdown, com-
pletely cool and the exhaust blower off.
b. Open door.
c. The baffl e is located at the top inside of fi rebox.
d. Remove baffl e by placing a fl at head screw driver into
the slot of the latches located in the upper corners and
push down. The bottom of the latch will fall forward off
of the post. Lift the baffl e up and then out toward you.

the bottom edge and tilt the baffl e up and into place
f. The baffl e must be centered in the fi rebox before latch-
ing it in place. If it is not centered the latch is trapped
between the baffl e and side of the fi rebox instead of
latching properly.
g. The bottom of the latches will fi t over the posts. Push
the top of the latch forward to lock latch into place.
D. High Ash Fuel Content Maintenance
• Frequency: When the ash build-up exceeds the half
way point in the fi repot
• By: Homeowner
If the ash build-up exceeds the half way point in the fi repot
before it automatically cleans, then the fi repot is not being
cleaned often enough.
Another symptom is if clinkers are adhering to the sides of
the fi repot.
Double check the wall control to ensure the proper setting
has been selected for the fuel you are burning. If that is cor-
rect, change the setting to “Utility Pellet”.
NOTE: You will need to empty the ash pan more fre-
quently if using the “Utility Pellet” setting.

• High ash fuels or lack of maintenance can cause fi repot to
overfi ll. Follow proper shutdown procedure if ash buildup
exceeds half way point in fi repot.

sible hopper fi res.
