Installing this bypass will alleviate the problem of creosote building within the feeder but will not remove any existing creosote that has developed prior to installation. If you are going to install this tube and have creosote in the feeder already, that creosote needs to be removed. Burning the creosote out with a torch can be done while the unit is running by keeping the stove attached to the venting and;
removing the feed system components, emptying the hopper of pellets, jumping the pressure switch to (NC) position and powering the combustion blower with direct 120v power
with the torch on, let the combustion air draw the flame of the torch down from the hopper into the drop section of the feeder, if there is any fines and creosote in this area they will burn and the gases will be expeller out the flue. Do this until there is not more smoke.
move down to the rear of the stove and burn out any left-over creosote from where the auger is mounted as well as from inside the fines collection box
the auger and the feed plate can also be cleaned of with the torch but I've found that it's sometimes best to replace the plate, auger, motor and pusher arm
