SEASONAL MAINTENANCE
(implemented by the TSC - Technical Support Centre)
It consists of:
• Cleaning the stove internally and externally
• Thorough cleaning of the horizontal exchange piping inside
the hot air outlet grill located in the upper part of the front of the
stove
• Carefully cleaning and removing dirt from the combustion
chamber and the relative compartment
• Emptying the pellet tank and vacuuming the bottom.
• Cleaning the smoke extractor and mechanically checking the
ranges and fastenings
• Cleaning the smoke channel (replace seals on smoke vent pipe)
• Cleaning the smoke pipe and vertical exchange piping behind
the walls inside the fi rebox
• Cleaning the smoke extractor fan chamber, cleaning the
pressure switch, • Checking the thermocouple.
• Cleaning, inspecting and de-scaling the ignition resistance
chamber, replace if necessary
• Cleaning/checking the synoptic panel
• Visual inspection of the electrical cables, the connections and
power supply cable
• Cleaning the pellet tank and checking the auger-gearmotor
assembly ranges
• Checking and replacing, if necessary, the small pressure switch
tube
• Replacing the door seal
• Functional testing: auger loading, switch on, operation for 10
minutes and switch off
In the event of very frequent stove use, you are advised to
clean the smoke passage pipe and channel every 3 months.
ATTENTION !!!
After normal cleaning, INCORRECT coupling of the upper
crucible (A) (Fig. 1) with the lower crucible (B) (Fig. 1) can
compromise stove operation.
Then before switching on the stove, ensure the crucibles are
correctly coupled as indicated in (Fig. 2) without the presence
of ash or fuel on the contact perimeter.
Remember that using the stove, without cleaning the
crucible, could cause sudden ignition of the gases inside the
combustion chamber and result in breakage of the glass on
the door.
N.B.:
The chimney stacks and smoke piping to which solid fuel using
appliances are connected must be cleaned once a year (check if
legislation exists in your country in relation to this).
Lack of regular controls and cleaning will increase the
probability of a fi re in the chimney stack.
IMPORTANT !!!
If a fi re starts in the stove, in the
smoke channel or in the chimney, proceed as follows:
- Disconnect electrical power
- Use a carbon dioxide CO
