Normal - To turn the stove off, turn the heat selector knob to
off. The fans will continue to operate until the control board
completes the shut down cycle.
Power outage - If the stove loses electrical power for less
than 10 seconds it will continue to operate. If the power
loss is greater than 10 seconds, the stove will go into the
ignition sequence and normal operation when the power
is restored. If the stove is connected to a thermostat, the
stove will not start the ignition sequence until the thermostat
calls for heat.

This stove has been painted with StoveBright high tempera-
ture metallic paint. It leaves the factory dry to the touch,
but completes the curing process as the stove is used. The
paint will cure during the first few times the stove is burned.
Also some parts of the appliance may be lightly coated with
machining oil. Ventilate the house during these first firings
as the paint and oil give off carbon dioxide and unpleas-
ant odors. It is recommended that persons sensitive to an
imbalance in the indoor air quality avoid the stove during
the curing process.

onvection Lower
Your Winslow™ PS40 stove comes equipped with a tem-
perature activated convection blower that extracts heat from
the stove. After the stove warms up, a heat activated switch
will turn the fan on. The speed of the fan varies with the burn
rate of the stove. The fan will continue to extract heat after
the stove shuts off and until it is cooled down.

As the Winslow PS40 stove is burning, a number of normal
operational sounds may be heard. Pellets can be heard sliding
down the auger tube and into the burn pot. Also, the motor
powering the auger can be heard as the control board calls
for pellets. Occasionally a loud noise can be heard as the
auger cuts a pellet in half. When the blowers come on, the
sound of rushing air may be heard. The lower the burn rate
the slower the fan operates. Hourly, the combustion fan will
blow at a high speed to clean ash from the burn pot.

Pellet fuel is made from sawdust and scrap wood from many
different species of wood. Pellets are either 1/4" or 5/16"
in diameter and vary in length (see Fuel Specifications on
page 3). The Winslow PS40 stove will burn either diameter
pellets. Pellets made from hardwoods contain more ash than
those made from softwoods. Minerals from ash and sand in
the pellets form clinkers under the extreme temperatures in
the burn pot. Try burning various brands of pellets until you
find one that burns with minimum ash and clinkers.

Once you find a pellet brand that burns well, continue using
this brand. High ash fuel increases the frequency of stove
cleaning. Fuel with an excessive moisture content may jam
the auger assembly.

Shelled corn can be burned in the Winslow PS40 stove when
it is mixed with wood pellet fuel (see Fuel Specifications on
page 3). The mixture can contain a maximum of 50 percent
corn. Burning corn may create more ash than wood pellets
and may necessitate the need to clean the burn pot and
glass more frequently.
