Hi I am trying to clean off the ash residue behind the flywheel but I cannot figure out how to take it off. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
 
When you say flywheel are you talking about the combustion blower fan blade? What brand of stove?
 
Hi , thanks for replying. I am talking about the combustion fan blade as ash builds up in the cavity under the fan.I think their is an allan key screw on the shaft of the fan. I have a Dell Point Europa 75.
 
I use compressed air with the shop vac controlling the mess.
 
Mine has an Allen set screw. Don't bend the blades!
