Maintenance - HWAM 3310 Manuel D'utilisation

in the wood burning stove climbs quickly. In this way the gasses and particles released during the
combustion will be consumed by the fire. Otherwise they build up soot in the chimney (constituting
a chimney fire risk) or will be released in a non-combusted state into the environment. The wrong
amount of air supply creates inefficient combustion and a modest effect.
• Don't savour the fire during night time
We advise against adding fire wood to your stove and reducing the air supply at night in an attempt
to still have some embers left in the morning. If you do so, large amounts of hazardous smoke will
be emitted, and your chimney will be exposed to unnecessarily large amounts of soot with the risk
of a chimney fire.
HWAM 3310 and HWAM 3320 are EN 13240 approved only for firing with wood. Do not
use chipboard, lacquered, painted or impregnated wood, plastic, and rubber.

aIntenance
Maintenance should only be carried out on the stove when it is cold. The stove only requires a mini-
mum of daily maintenance.
Emptying the ashpan, drawing E
HWAM 3310 and HWAM 3320 are equipped with a socket for sucking out ash from the ashpot.
Remove the cover plate (if used) over the shaking grate. Open the ash hatch in the lower part of the
stove. Turn the wheel (2) beneath the stove one turn in the direction of the arrow, which shakes the
ash from the combustion chamber down into the ashpot, and at the same time sweep in the direction
of the socket opening (repeat if the ashpot is very full). Remove the socket cap (3), fit the ash bucket
hose on the socket and turn on the motor/vacuum cleaner.
Note: The ash must be completely cold before you remove it from the stove! Please note that there
may be embers in the ashes for up to 24 hours after the fire has gone out!
Cleaning
The easiest is to vacuum clean the stove on the outside using a small nozzle with soft brush-es. You can
also wipe the stove clean using a dry, soft cloth or a soft duster. But remember only to do it when the
stove is cold! Do not use water, spirit or any other kind of cleaner, as this will damage the lacquer.
Thorough maintenance should be performed on the stove each year. Remove all ash and soot from
the combustion chamber.
Service
The stove should have a thorough preventive service check at least every other year. This service
check includes the following:
• Thorough cleaning of the stove
• Checking of the door lift and possibly greasing with copper grease
• Check the spring in the automatic unit and replace if necessary.
• Checking gaskets. Replace gaskets if they are not intact or have softened
• Inspection of springs for chain drive. Inspection to ensure that the chain drive is equal on both sides,
and that the door closes tightly all the way around.
• Checking of heat insulating material and possibly replacement
• Checking of the bottom/shaking grate
