How to drop the Clinker from the pot
1.
The coal Rake. The first step is to push the coal rake in and separate the burning
coals and corn from the clinker. Once this is done open the door and add a ¼ cup
of pellets on top of the coals
(See figure 6 below). To push in the Coal rake, use
the Rod Handle tool shown in figure 8 on page 15.

2.
The ash pan. The Lancaster has a small ashpan. It is recommended to remove
the clinker from the ashpan on a daily basis before dropping the next clinker.
This allows the previous clinker to cool down and it is easy to handle (see point 1
at the top of page 15).
3.
The slide out bottom. (See figure 7 on page 14) Now you are ready to drop the
clinker from the burn pot. Pull the bottom out in one quick motion and let the
clinker drop into the ash pan. Quickly push the bottom in again. To pull out the
slide bottom use the Rod Handle tool shown in figure 8 on page 15 (see point 2
at the top of page 15).
