I removed the botton fire bricks and the side fire bricks cleaned plus vacuumed then took a small wire brush to the welds, all the welds are good (sides & bottom) after the first year my question is how do you remove the top bricks?

Do you have to remove the Baffle Support, Front Y plus the Baffle Support, Rear T and if so any certain order.

From the manual:

Baffle Removal & Replacement
1 Lift up on the front portion of the front three firebricks.
2 Lift the front baffle support “Y” and rotate it forward until it can be removed.
3 Slide the center front firebrick forward and out the door opening. Then slide the side front
firebricks towards the middle then out in the same manner.
4 Slide the center baffle support forward and out of the firebox.
5 Slide the rear firebrick forward and out of the firebox. NOTE: When the center rear firebrick are
slid forward the damper plate will come to rest on the rear secondary air tube and rear air
channel.
6 Slide the damper slider all the way forward.
7 Reach into the firebox and push up on the damper yoke until the damper yoke separates from the
damper slider. Remove both the damper slider and damper plate by sliding them between the
front two secondary air tubes.
REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS:
8 Place the damper plate above the secondary air tubes in the rear center of the firebox.
9 Position the damper slider so the damper yoke inserts into the two tubes on the damper slider
(make sure to have correct orientation). Then slide the damper slider over the damper plate until
both are centered in the firebox.
10 Follow the instructions above in reverse order, starting with step number 5.

Thanks BeGreen, I guess turning the page (28-29) would have helped! :red:

No problem. If you run into issues, moderator fossil has this stove and may be able to help.

It's finished BeGreen, all the welds are good and the entire inside has been cleaned. Next on the list is the inside pipe then the outside chimney which was cleaned at the end of Dec. of 09.
