CAUTION
!
Never use your household or shop vacuum cleaner to
remove ash from the stove; always remove and dispose
of the ash properly.
Empty the ash pan regularly, typically every one to three
days. The frequency will vary depending on how you
operate your Dauntless FlexBurn®: ash will accumulate
faster at higher heat outputs.
Removed ash should be placed outdoors in a metal
containerwithatight-ttinglid.Keeptheclosedcontainerof
ashonanoncombustibleoororontheground,wellaway

the ash is disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally
dispersed, it should be kept in the closed container until all
cinders have thoroughly cooled.
F. Opacity (Visible Smoke)
This is the measure of how cleanly your appliance is burning.
Opacity is measured in percent; 100% opacity is when
an object is totally obscured by the smoke column from a
chimney, and 0% opacity means that no smoke column can
be seen. As you become familiar with your appliance, you
should periodically check the opacity. This will allow you to
knowhowtoburnasnearlysmoke-freeaspossible(goalof
0%opacity).
Whenburningyourrstre,youwillexperiencesmoke
and odor from the appliance resulting from the curing
of paint and burning off of any oils remaining from
manufacturing.
