Daily Maintenance
Example of Schedule for dropping Clinkers from the burn pot:
This may be
required more than once a day, depending on the burn rate of the stove and the quality of
Corn used.
Check the stove frequently at first to establish a Maintenance Schedule
for cleaning the burnpot. If Clinker is not removed, the burnpot will overload and
fuel will spill into the Ashpan.
1 - Continuous burning of the stove on the Low burn setting (Pilot) – Approximately
every 48 hours. This may vary depending on the quality of Corn used.
2 - Continuous burning of the stove at the High burn setting (#5) –
Approximately
every 18 hours
. This may vary depending on the quality of Corn used.
The Daily Maintenance will focus on 4 areas in the stove: removing the Clinkers from
the Ash Pan (if needed), dropping the Clinker from the Burnpot, cleaning the Heat
Exchange Tubes and cleaning the Glass. A break down of this process consists of these
steps:
Note the position of the Coal Rake Rod and the Slide-out Pot Bottom Rod during
