NOTE:
Open the (N) Damper below the door for the first ten minutes of a burn. Standard burn
time for the heater on two full hoppers (20lb) is about 2.5 hours. You can extend this burn
time by adding pellets to the hoppers during the burn.

PAINT CURING

Curing Paint on this heater is easy. Simply fire both hoppers and open the damper. Keep lids open
only until paint has cured on lids. About 10 minutes after stove has been on for at least 20 minutes or
until temperature of stove is hot. Allow to burn at least one half of each full hopper before shutting off.
Continue use if desired.

MAINTENANCE

AFTER USE:
When you are finished using the Heater you should make sure that the fire is completely out.
Allow at least 45 minutes for the heater to cool down before transporting.
This stove is supplied with a slanted fire grate to help burn hotter longer reducing the ash
content while burning. Clean grate and slots either by removing from stove or using a hard
pointy object to shuffle ash down slot holes.
Store the heater upright in a sheltered area away from inclement weather such as rain, snow and
dust. This unit is manufactured as an "Outdoor Unit" from steel. If you leave it in the weather it will
accumulate rust. This is normal and can be treated by using touch up paint in spray cans available
from Wood Pellet Products.
Caution:
Never burn stick wood or plastic or other combustibles in this heater. Burn only ¼"
diameter wood pellets. Never spray any cleaning product on or into any of the doors,
air intakes, or dampers.
To obtain the best performance from your heater make sure you perform the following
maintenance activities on a regular basis:
After a burn and once the heater is completely cooled, clean out any remaining ashes from on
top of the fire grate and in the ash pan. Do not dump an ash pan with hot embers or pellets in
it into a garbage can or any other combustible area. It will start a fire.
Keep exterior surfaces clean. Use warm soapy water for cleaning. NEVER use flammable or
corrosive cleaning agents on or near this Heater. Airflow through dampers and out of the spark
arrester must be unobstructed, clean regularly.
