Anybody with a coal gun with Schneider timers for ashing know how to set it that it won’t ash on a non combustion cycle? Also love control

I doubt that this is a "setting" that you can change. This would require some re-wiring. AHS has changed how they wire their controls several times over the years so we would need to know how yours is currently wired.

The general idea is to have the boiler control interrupt the ashing motor directly so that the timer can only run the ashing motor when the fan is running.
