COMBEX
Your stove uses a unique patented technology called COMBEX. As opposed to most other pellet stoves, which use only an
exhaust blower, your ECO-35 uses a motor on which are mounted two housings with impeller blades. One housing serves for
combustion, and the other for exhaust. This is why we refer to the combustion/exhaust blower throughout this manual. The
COMBEX system balances combustion air and uptake to provide clean, worry-free combustion which is less dependent on the
leak-tightness of the device and the quality of the combustible.

IF THE STOVE RUNS OUT OF PELLETS

The fire goes out and the auger motor and blowers will run until the stove cools down. This will take a few minutes.
After the stove's components stop running, a warning message will appear
To restart, press , refill the hopper , and press
DAMPER CONTROL
The damper control on the stove's in the right hand side panel. This control is necessary due to the varied burn characteristics of individual installations
and different pellet brands. It allows you to improve the efficiency of your stove. Providing correct combustion air will reduce the frequency of cleaning
your glass door and prevent the rapid build-up of creosote inside your stove and chimney.
You should adjust the damper based on the fire's appearance. A low, reddish, dirty fire can be improved by increasing the air supply using the damper
control. A "blow torch" fire can be improved by reducing the air supply Figure 14.
Through trial and error, you will find the best setting. Consult your dealer if you need help.

REFUELING

We recommend that you not let the hopper drop below 1/4 full. If the reload lid stays for open more than 3 minutes, a warning
restart, press button, and then press
KEEP HOPPER LID CLOSED AT ALL TIMES EXCEPT WHEN REFILLING. THE HOPPER MAY BE FILLED WHILE THE STOVE IS OPERATING.
DO NOT OVERFILL HOPPER. DO NOT TOUCH THE UNIT WITH THE PELLET BAG. HOT SURFACE MAY MELT THE BAG.

SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE

Turning your stove off is a matter of pressing
fallen to a preset level. The stove cannot restart until it has shut down completely.

SAFETY FEATURES

a. Your stove is equipped with a re-settable high temperature switch (also called heat sensor or heat switch). The switch has a reset button on its
backside. Like a circuit breaker, once tripped, the reset button will have to be pushed before you can restart the stove. The high temperature
switch is there to protect the stove from overheating in case of an evacuation problem, a control board problem, a blower problem, or any other
problem causing the unit to overheat. The manufacturer recommends that you call your dealer if this occurs as it may indicate a more serious
problem. A service call may be required.
NOTE: If an overheating situation occurs, the high temperature switch (called the L-250 manual reset) will automatically shut down the auger
(fuel feed system) and a warning code
b. If the combustion blower fails, an air pressure switch will automatically shut down the auger and a warning message
safety feature is to prevent the unit from burning fuel when the combustion/exhaust blower has failed, therefore preventing combustion fumes
from spilling into the room.
