1. 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.
2. The "TEST" cycle will operate the feeder motor for exactly one
minute. Turning to "TEST" again and again may purge too much
fuel into the burn pot causing excessive smoke on start-up.
3. The firebox low pressure switch will not allow the auger motor
or the igniter element to operate if the view door or the ash pan
door are open.
4. Adjust Feed Rate. If this is your first fire or you are trying different
pellets, set the feed adjuster to #4, Fig. 7. This is a conservative
number and will probably need to be increased. After you know a
feed rate setting that works well, use that setting. Remember, if
your feed rate is too high you may waste fuel.
5. This is usually a weekly maintence 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 holed surface downward
into the burn pot. When the stove is ignited these scrapings will be
pushed out by the feeder.
6. The ash pan can hold the ashes from approximately 1 ton of
premium fuel. This means the ashes will only need to be emptied a
few times a year.
7. Setting the feed adjuster # for maximum burn: With the unit
burning in "AUTO", turn to "Stove Mode" and put the fan on "H".
Set the Temperature Dial to #7. Allow the unit to burn for about
30 minutes and check ash on front of burn pot. Fig. 9. If the ash
line is larger than 1", turn the feed adjuster from #4 to #5. Allow
another 30 minutes of burn time and check again. If , at #6 setting,
a 1" or less ash bed is not obtainable, it is not a problem. The 1"
ash bed is only a maximum burn rate and at most normal settings
the ash bed will be larger.

Starting First Fire
Ignitor Switch to"MANUAL"
(up position)
Make sure the unit is plugged into a
120 VAC, 60 HZ electrical source. The
power light should be the only light lit.
1. Turn FEED ADJUSTER to desired feed
rate. No. 4 is good for most pellets.
2. Turn the MODE SELECTOR to "OFF"
and then to the desired mode. This will
reset control and start the combustion mo-
tor.
3. Turn the TEMPERATURE DIAL to the
desired setting.
4. Clean burn pot with scraper if necessary.
5. Fill burn pot with pellets, only level with
front edge. (Do Not Over Fill).
6. Add starting gel on top of the pellets. Stir
gel into pellets for fast lighting.
7. Light starting gel with a match, and close
the door. Operation will begin when the fire
reaches the proper temperature.
8. Fill hopper with pellets and remove ashes
1, 6
as required.
