I followed a great link to learn how to clean my Accentra Insert. I skipped cleaning the blades of the distribution blower. Given that it's on the bottom of the stove, how do you Accentra Insert burners get to it?

if you have a raised hearth, you can slide the stove out onto two 2x4s. Support the 2x4s with some blocks. when the stove is slid out you can access the blower a little easier. If you have a flush hearth then you can still slide it out on 2x4s and then tilt the stove body on a 45deg angle and have someone you can trust balance it for you while you reach under and clean the blower
 
THanks. My hearth is raised only a VERY small amount, so I will try the tipping method.
