MAINTENANCE
Cleaning and maintenance should always be carried out when the stove is completely cold.
To remove the ashes, rotate the handle of the tipping grate smartly to tip them into the ash box. Lift
the ash door off using the multi-purpose handle and remove the ash box. When disposing of the ashes,
remember they may still contain hot embers, so do NOT wrap them in paper. Place the removed ashes
in a non-combustible container with a tightly fitting lid, and move the container outdoors immediately
to a place clear of combustible materials.
Some models have a fibreglass cord gasket on the ash door. If this is damaged and may leak, replace it
with a genuine Masport spare part. Your tipping grate will eventually need replacing. The new one
can be inserted into the grate handle from inside the stove. No dismantling of the stove is necessary.
Wiping the outside of the stove with a damp cloth can result in smearing. We recommend using only a
dry cloth for dusting the stove. Eventually it may be necessary to touch up the exterior finish. Use
only a special Very High Temperature black Stove Paint (available from your Masport Dealer). We
do not recommend the use of stove polishes.
The outside of the flue may be cleaned, if desired, with a household metal polish. Do not use steel
wool or harsh abrasives. If the stove burns sluggishly or has a low heat output, first check that the fuel
is properly dry. (See above). If the problem persists, it is probable that the flue needs sweeping. In
any case, we recommend having the flue swept once a season.
