Rashi
ודשנו את המזבח AND THEY SHALL TAKE AWAY THE ASHES FROM THE ALTAR — from the brazen altar.
Siftei Chakhamim
They shall take the ashes. Not that they should place the ashes there (as the word ודשנו might imply).
Rashi
ודשנו means, they shall remove the ashes from off it (cf. Rashi on Exodus 27:3).

ופרשו עליו בגד ארגמן AND THEY SHALL SPREAD A GARMENT OF RED PURPLE THEREON — But the fire that descended from heaven on the altar (cf. Rashi on Leviticus 1:7) lay beneath the garment in the form of a lion during the journeyings; it did not, however, burn it because they inverted a large vessel of copper over it (cf. Yoma 21b).
