Cumberland Stove Works MF3700 Manual De Usuario

•  Complete the daily maintenance by checking the seal 

on the doors. Look for pellets that may have been left 

behind during loading. Check that each of the door seals 

are flush with the stove and sealing properly.

•  The fire pot and the area around it are cleaned using the

special tool provided with the stove and the ash cleaning 

vacuum. It is important to remove any unburned pellets 

that may have fallen behind the burn pot. 

•  To clean the fire pot with the cleaning tool, remove the

fire pot by unscrewing the firepot cleaning rod from the

fire pot. Remove the rod and the firepott. Remove the fire

plate by lifting it out of pot holder (Figure 28). Brush all

of the ash from beneath the fireplate into the ash pan.

•  Remove the ash pan and dump the ash into a metal 

container. 

•  Cleaning of the exhaust system will depend upon the

ash and debris content of your fuel. If your fuel has a high 

ash content and/or significant debris in it, the exhaust

system will require weekly cleaning. Cleaner fuels will 

allow for monthly cleaning of the exhaust system. Clean

out tees in the exhaust system make this task much

easier.

•  Remove  the  top  baffle  inside  the  firebox  and  clean

the fly ash and soot on all exposed parts using a steel

brush and ash cleaning vacuum. The use of a shop-vac

is not recommended. Talk to any authorized dealer for 

information about the ash cleaning vacuum.

Once every year you must clean out all of the fuel in the 

hopper, firebox area, ash pan and fire pot area. Corn and

pellets can accumulate moisture over the summer months 

causing the unit to rust and the fuel to mold. 
It is recommended that prior to shutting down the unit in 

the spring it is run on the high setting for about six hours to

help clean out the heat exchanger system, venting system

and fire box area.
