Clean the blower fanblade andthe blower plate sealing
overlap.SeeFig.24.
NOTE: Be careful not to bend the fan blade, this will
throw the fan blade out of balance or it may rub the inner
chamber, which may affect the performance of the boiler.
Any horizontal and vertical ue pipe directly above the
unit should be cleaned at this time
NOTE: The horizontal ue pipe directly above the boiler
is the rst place y ash will settle, due to the slowing
of ue gas velocity through horizontal pipe. Cleaning
of horizontal venting pipes is very important to the
efciency of this boiler.
NOTE: The exhaust probe sensing tip extends into this
same area. CARE MUST BE TAKEN NOT TO DAMAGE
THE ESP DURING CLEANING. Bending of the ESP will
make it difcult to remove if it should become necessary.
