Make sure hopper and feed system are clear of all pellets.
Vacuum the interior of the hopper and spray with a silicone

Vacuum stove interior and the ash pan. Thoroughly clean
the burn pot and lightly coat with a rust inhibitor such as
silicone or oil to prevent rusting. Remove exhaust motor
and clean the fly ash out of the exhaust duct. Clean the
radial blades of the exhaust fan.
Take the venting apart and clean out the fly ash, rinse

ash vacuum makes cleaning easier and faster.
