a.
The first LED only indicates the Normal #1
setting. (1.5 second on time). This is the
default setting.
b. The first and fourth LED lights indicate the
#1 Low setting. (1.25 second on time) This
will reduce the heat output on the #1 setting.
This setting will also create more buildup on
the glass. (see point 10 on page 22)
c.
The first and fifth LED lights indicate the #1
High setting. (1.75 second on time) This will
produce the most heat available on the #1
setting. This is helpful in keeping the glass a
little cleaner when burning on low.
The adjustments described in points 4 and 5
remain in effect as long as the unit is plugged in. If
the unit gets unplugged or if there is a power
failure the settings are lost and the adjustments
would need to be reset.
6.
Thermostat Slide Switch. Use this switch to
change the Operations mode from a Manual
Mode to Thermostat Mode.

Pre-Lighting Instructions

When lighting your stove for the first time or any
time you have run out of corn you will need to fill
the hopper with corn. Corn is fed from the hopper
to the burn pot by an auger. A high torque motor
that is capable of doing SERIOUS harm to
fingers drives the auger. Keep fingers and other
objects away from the auger.
WARNING: The Auger can start at any time
while the stove is running
CAUTION: The Coal Rake must be pulled out
and the Slide-Bottom pushed in to operate the
stove. (See Figure 1, Stove Layout on page 1)
WARNING: The Fire Door and Ash Pan
Doors must be in the latched position during
normal operation.

Lighting Your Stove.

1.
Make sure there is corn in the hopper.
2.
Add one cup of Pellets to the burn pot (not
more and not less). Do not try to start your stove

with corn; Corn is difficult to start. Add a generous
amount of starter gel to the pellets.
3. This next item is optional, but it will give an
immediate boost to the start up procedure. Crumple
up half of a newspaper page, light the gel and toss
the paper in the burn pot.
4. Close the door and push the On/Off button on
the control board. (Button #2, see figure 2)
At this point all that needs to be done is to monitor
the burn pot to make sure the stove starts up
properly. Once the On/Off button has been pushed
the Start Up program takes over.
The Start up Program works as follows:
a. The Combustion Fan comes on at high
speed and the control board checks to make
sure the Vacuum switch locks in. (See
section on Diagnostic features on page 8.)
b. When the Control Board senses the Vacuum
switch the Exhaust Fan drops to a lower start
up speed until the Proof of Fire Switch locks
in.
c. After 5 minutes the board checks for "Proof
of Fire" and automatically starts feeding
corn on the #1 setting. If the board senses
P.O.F.
then
successfully.
d. If the board fails to sense P.O.F. after 5
minutes it will repeat the last step and
continue feeding corn on the #1 setting for 5
more minutes.
e. The board will check for P.O.F. again. If the
board still fails to sense the Proof of Fire
switch the stove will go into "Safety
shutdown" (See section on Diagnostic
Features on page 8.)
If stove fails to start, repeat steps 2 through 4 from
the section on Lighting Your Stove.
CAUTION: NEVER ADD FIRE STARTER TO
A HOT STOVE.
