o er. e chimney should be cleaned at least
o ce a year. Chimney cleaning following coal
usage should be done with plastic or brass brushes
to avoid possible soot explosions.
If your blower motor is equipped with oil holes, it
should be lubricated every six months only with
SAE 20 NON DETERGENT OIL. When reinstalling
blower, it is essential that all wires be kept as far
away from the stove as possible.
At least once every year, preferably at the end of
the heating season, the inside of the stove should
be thoroughly cleaned. A wire brush should be
used to remove soot and creosote. This will mini-
mize rust, maximize the heat output and extend the
life of the stove. You may choose to re-paint part or
all of the stove. Use only high quality high tempera-
ture paint. Check all gaskets for proper adhesion
and wear. Gasket replacement kits are available
from your Russo dealer.
The glass should be cleaned periodically with a
fireplace and glass cleaner. Exceptionally heavy
tar deposits can be removed with oven cleaner. Do
not use steel wool, abrasives, or scrapers as the
glass may become scratched. Allow the stove to
cool before attempting to clean the glass. All resi-
due of cleaning agents must be removed before
refiring your stove.
If your stove is equipped with a blower, it should be
removed and cleaned at least every six months.
