Maintenance and cleaning

Before completing any maintenance operation, adopt the following precautions:
- Make sure that the main line switch is disengaged.
- Make sure that all stove parts are cold.
- Make sure that the ashes are completely cold.
- Always operate with equipment that is appropriate for maintenance.
Once maintenance has been completed, re-install all safety guards before restarting operation. The stove requires very little
maintenance id quality pellet is used. It is not therefore easy to establish what cleaning frequency is required. Pellet quality and
combustion adjustment are decisive. That is why it is important to perform the first switch-on with an authorised technician.

Tank and feed screw cleaning at the end of the season

Prior to the authorised Technical Support Centre's intervention for mandatory seasonal cleaning as required by regulations, it is
advisable to let pellets burn out in the tank so that any remaining pellets and sawdust can be vacuumed from the tank bottom and
the feed screw. Run one or two empty loading cycles on the screw to remove the pellets, DISCONNECT the power supply by turning
the I/O switch on the back and pull the plug out from the electrical socket. The protective grille inside the tank can now be removed,
if required. Start collecting the pellets and the sawdust remains from the bottom of the tank and from the pellet drop hole, and also
from the firebox, with an ash vacuum cleaner. This prevents the pellets left in the tank and in the feed screw from dampening and
creating plugs which are then difficult to remove even for the Technical Support Centre, forcing them to disassemble the part and
incur subsequent additional costs. Put the protective grille back in place after cleaning and before reconnecting the power supply.

Combustion chamber cleaning

The stove requires a simple yet frequent cleaning in order to guarantee suitable yield and regular operation. Suck up the ashes in
the combustion chamber and ash compartment with an appropriate ash vacuum cleaner, making sure that the ashes are completely
cold. Daily cleaning is recommended; however, cleaning frequency depends on the appliance used and the quality of the fuel used.
