Depending on the type of fuel you are burning will dictate how 

often you have to clean your firepot.  
If the fuel you are burning has a high dirt or ash content or 

you are burning shelled field corn, it may be necessary to 

clean the firepot more than once a day.  
Dirty fuel will cause clinkers to form in the firepot.  A clinker 

is  formed  when  dirt,  ash  or  a  non-burnable  substance  is 

heated to 2000°F (1093°C) and becomes glass-like.  See 

“

D” page 37 in this section for more details on fuels with 

high ash content.
