Anyone seen this pellet stove ash away cleaning tool?

Sure do. The stirrer (or agitator) rod is a requirement for burning corn, either that or a clinker pot which has to be custom fabricated from 304 stainless sheet and TIG welded together. I run stirrers in both of mine, all the time even when on straight pellets (like I'm running presently).

Both of my units (one in the house and one in the shop) are USSC 6039-41 Hearth Focus stoves. The one in the house I purchased new about 20 years ago and the one in the shop I purchased from Facebook Marketplace and rebuilt as it was another neglected unit which is pretty common today. Many people don't maintain them correctly, they think they are 'plug and play' and that is the farthest thing from the truth. The fastest way to destroy any stove is not take care of it,. especially that spring cleaning and fogging the burn chamber with fogging oil. The one I bought from Facebook Marketplace wasn't run all the much but was still a mess inside. Accumulates ash was like concrete inside. Had to pressure wash it after I removed all the electrical and electronic components to rid it of the concrete as build up.

Least it wasn't rusted out but it was on the way. Has a new home now and will be properly maintained.

Both are on remote t'stats too. One in the house, the t'stat is in the kitchen and the shop stove has it's t'stat on a far wall.
