Operation 4. If starting after an empty hopper, turn Feed Adjuster to "TEST" (for one 60 second cycle). This will purge pellets into the auger tube and also allow you to check the motors for operation. NOTE: The auger motor will not operate with any of the doors open.
Operation Fig. 12 7. Open hopper swing plate as shown in Fig. 13 (See “NOTE” on page 23.) 8. Turn the MIN. TEMP. Dial on the control board to the desired Minimum temperature.

Operation 11. Turn Mode Selector to desired MIN TEMP setting. This will start the combustion blower and allow the ESP to control the fire in relation to the MAX TEMP Dial setting. (The MAX TEMP dial setting must always be set above the MIN TEMP setting) Once the fire is well estab- lished the MAX TEMP dial can remain on any temperature setting desired.
Maintenance Burnpot cleaning: The burnpot should be cleaned no less than once a week. For best operation the burnpot should be cleaned every time the hopper is filled with pellets. The fire does not have to be out to scrape the burnpot although it is recomended the boiler be on minimum burn at the time of cleaning.
