Harman P43.....doing a complete breakdown cleaning today and I noticed a spot I never cleaned, its the space under the platform that the ashpan sits on, I do the leafblower, does that pretty much get it? Any ideas?
 
I use my shop vac with the wide mouth attachment.
I set it into the channel on one side & insert a bent
piece of wire clotheshanger in the other & move the
hanger around to loosen the ashes up. Doesn't get
ALL of it outta there, but it'll get MOST of it...

Hey that's a great way to do it, I've been trying to figure the best way to get at this area too. Thanks!
