How to maintain consistent heat with your USSC 6041 Multi-Fuel Stove

Objective:

During this instruction, you will learn how to maintain consistent heat with a USSC

6041 Multi-Fuel Stove. You will accomplish this by learning how to apply correct adjustments to

the pellet feed rate, the agitator speed setting, the draft fan speed, and the damper position.

Motivation:

During this past winter (2013-2014) record amounts of snow and low

temperatures were set throughout the area. Heating costs soared across all of America. In some

areas, sources of fuel, such as propane, were rationed to ensure shortages will not affect mass

populations. Individuals using traditional woodstoves encountered issues if they had not stocked

up enough wood. Many are now turning towards pellet stoves as an alternate source of heat to

save money.

Class Set Up:

This is a self-paced class with the benefit of hands-on practical exercise

under the supervision of a subject matter expert. The class consists of three lessons, which

include (1) cleaning your pellet stove, (2) loading pellets and turning on stove, and (3)

maintaining consistent heat. Each lesson is followed by a two-part check on learning. The first

part is a written assessment to confirm learning prior to the second, which will be a hands-on

practical exercise using a USSC 6041 Multi-Fuel Stove.

Notes to Student:

Training is in three lessons and should be accomplished within 1 to 2 hours. A subject matter

expert will be available throughout the training to provide answers and guidance, as needed or

requested. This class is not designed as a pass or fail class. It exists to provide you with all the

necessary tools, information, and confidence to use a USSC 6041 Multi-Fuel Stove. If you own

a stove, it'll give you skills and knowledge to improve the efficiency of what you already do. If

you do not own a stove it will give you the confidence to use a stove if you should choose to buy

and put one in your home.

reference throughout the class.

To begin Lesson One, read pages 6 to 11 to study the proper procedures for cleaning the USSC

6041 Multi-Fuel Stove. You will learn to identify key areas of the stove where airflow can be

constricted, effecting efficiency, and to clean all ash and fly ash from the stove. Lesson One will

be followed by a two part Check on Learning starting on page 12. The Lesson One Check on

Learning answer key can be found on page 26.
