Operation
Starting A Fire Automatically
1. Turn Mode Selector to "OFF".
This resets the control in addition to turning it off.
2. Clean burnpot with scraper, if necessary.
This is usually a weekly maintenance procedure.
Cleaning the burn pot with the scraper with a small
amount of new fuel in the bottom is not a problem. First,
scrape the ashes on the front of the burn pot into the ash
pan. Then scrape the hole grid surface downward into
the burn pot. When the stove is ignited these scrapings
will be pushed out by the feeder.
NOTE: To minimize the amount of stress placed
on the hopper swing plate hinges, opening of the
hopper swing plate should be done when the hop-
per fuel level is low whenever possible.
3. Fill hopper with pellets.
When filling the hopper check for excessive fines in
the bottom of the hopper. Fines are small pieces of broken
pellets (sawdust). Fines do not flow easily and often
build up on the hopper funnel bottom angles. These fines
can be pushed into the feeder opening and then fill the
hopper with pellets. As the system works, they will be
burned.
