5 Cleaning and Maintenance
The cleaning and maintenance intervals depend on the number of operating hours and the connection situation.
Cleaning the glass panel
Visual inspection of the riddling grate, remove any adhering
deposits
Emptying the ash box and cleaning the combustion
chamber
Cleaning the flue gas outlets
Cleaning the worm conveyor tube, pellet hopper
Replacing the battery
Inspect all seals (door, heat exchanger cover, ash box, hop-
per lid,); replace if necessary.
The stove and its components must be cleaned according to the above table.
Arrange for your pellet stove to be inspected and serviced annually by an Austroflamm technician before the
start of the heating season.
5.1 Stove models with burner pot
The burner pot of your pellet stove must be emptied before each use. Only
a cleaned fuel pot guarantees safe ignition at start-up and clean combus-
tion during operation. By using the lifting tool supplied (see illustration), the
fuel pot can be removed easily and safely, and carried to the emptying
point.
5.2 Stove models with automatic riddling grate
On stove models with an automatic riddling grate, the ashes on the riddling
grate are tipped into the ash pan each time the stove stops. The ash pan can
be emptied as required.
The accumulation of flue ash in the combustion chamber is normal and
should be removed once a week, if the stove is in operation.
The burner pot and the riddling grate should be inspected every 2-3 days of
operation to ensure that there are no adhering deposits, and cleaned with a
wire brush.
