How to build an inexpensive track system for Accentra insert?

Hello pellet people,
I need to build an inexpensive track system so that I can pull my Harman Accentra insert out and give it a good cleaning. I've done some searching here and saw some pictures and got some hints but am still not sure how to go about it. I really like the metal ones that people have built but they are out of my price range. I'll also be the first to admit I'm not a very good carpenter, but I can saw some 2x4s and hammer them together. With that said, my only criteria is that it's cheap (really just 2x4s and nails), simple to build, will safely hold it (it's heavy!), and will allow me to access the bottom of the stove so I can clean the distribution motor. The stove is 20'' above the floor, and is 22 1/2'' wide at the bottom. Not sure how long I need to make it so I can pull it entirely out. Can anyone give me some good detailed plans on how to do this? I've seen some sketches but don't completely understand them. I would really appreciate any help, thanks!

Thanks Rock Crusher for the info and pictures. Unfortunately I think I have an older model of the Accentra that uses a different track system. Mine just slides along a flat metal rail that has fabric attached to it to make it slide easier. Too bad because I really like the simplicity and cost of your homemade supports. See the pic above and hopefully I can still get some help on how to get this sucker safely out. One other thing that someone mentioned is using a motorcycle lift. It would be more expensive and I'm not sure if it would even reach the 20'' I need to remove it, but it would come in handy for working on my bike. Can someone else help me out with this older style track system? Thanks!

Alright, thanks everyone for the information. Building this frame was a lot easier than I thought and it works great. Other posts said the stove wouldn't slide that good on the wood but it slides really easy. Being able to pull the stove out by ourselves is great and we can really give it a good cleaning. It is also very sturdy and have no worries working underneath it cleaning out the distribution blower. And man did that need a cleaning! The stove really kicks out the heat now and all I needed were a few 2x4's, some nails, miter saw, and tape measure for the measurements. Thanks again!

Hi Sante fe,
The frame sits about 1/8'' below the stove, so pulling it out was easy since it just dropped that tiny bit. Putting it back in we had to lift it that 1/8'' but it wasn't difficult at all. I think my pics might be misleading since I didn't remove the bottom trim plate, but if that was off you'd see that it lines up as good as it can get.

I think mine was easier since I have the older model Accentra that has a flat base so I had more leeway on my measurements. My two top rails are 40'' long, the two bottom rails are 30'' long. For the width I used four supports at 24 1/2 '' wide. I know your height will be different but my four legs are 17''. For my stove this width worked great since the stove was centered nicely on the 2x4's and we didn't have to worry about it sliding off either side as long as we kept an eye on it.

I only used four 8 foot 2x4s but made sure to make my cuts in the best order so that I didn't waste any. Good luck if you end up doing it, it was a lot easier than I thought, just double check your measurements and you should be good.

Wow that is pretty cool. Sante fe, since I believe you have the new 'roller' type track, you might want to either splurge on something like this or build one like Rock Crusher did since you're measurements will have to be exact and it will need to be perfectly square.
