9. The heater must be turned off and allowed to cool before cleaning. Make sure there are no hot ashes or embers present. Use a brush and scoop to clean. Only use vacuum cleaners specifically designed for use with hot ashes.
1.1 Installation Clearances Please refer to the following figures for all clearances to combustibles. Please note that these clearances are for your KOZI heater only. Each venting manufacturer/supplier has their individual clearances which must also be respected. 26.5" (675 mm) Minimum 28"...
Page 8
INSTALLATION COMMENT: We recommend sufficient space be provided (minimum 20 inches/500 mm) on each side of the heater to service the equipment area. If this is not possible, a provision must be made to pull the heater out for service. A ll dimensions are minimum dimensions unless marked.
1.2 Other Clearances and Recommendations 1. This heater must be mounted on a noncombustible material, placed underneath the heater and extending a minimum of 6 inches (150 mm) in front of the heater. 2. Clearances can ONLY be reduced by means approved by local building or fire officials in your area.
2. Electrical Requirements 1. This heater is an electrical appliance. The North American versions of this appliance require 120 Volts, 60 cycle and 3 Amps of electrical power. The European versions of this appliance require 230 Volts, 50 cycles and 2 Amps of electrical power.
4. Location of the Heater Before proceeding with the installation, the following sections should be reviewed: Section 4: Location of the Heater Section 5: Typical Installation Configurations Section 6: Venting System When selecting a location for your new heater consider the following: a.
PL or L venting should be used to provide the least resistance for movement of the combustion air. Your KOZI pellet heater is certified for 3 and 4 inch exhaust venting. 3 inch venting is normally sufficient for most direct vent installations. Installations with several elbows, long horizontal and/or vertical runs may add too much resistance to air flow and may create burn problems.
YOU MUST USE APPROPRIATE 4” VENTING IF: The EVL is 7 or more AND you are at or above an altitude of 3000 ft. The EVL is 15 or more If in doubt, use 4” venting. This will reduce the possibility of future burn problems. DO NOT USE MAKESHIFT MATERIALS OR MAKE COMPROMISES IN THE INSTALLATION.
intakes, etc. 4. The exhaust vent opening must be a minimum of: * 12 inches (0.3m) from the ground * 24 inches (0.61m) from any combustible surface i.e. fence, plant, etc. * 7 feet (2.1 m) from any public walkway 5.
INSTALL ALL VENTING AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE VENT MANUFACTURER 3. The elevation of the combustion air intake must be below the exhaust vent. An elbow may be used to lower the air intake point below that of the exhaust vent. 4.

Please refer to the “Typical Mobile Home Installation Configuration” section for typical venting configurations the “Venting System”...
III. OPERATION 1. General overview The first step in understanding your new KOZI heater is to familiarize yourself with its operation. Your heater has 3 main systems: Feed, Combustion and Circulation. These 3 systems work together to produce enough heat for your room. The feed system uses an auger to “feed”...
3. Electric Igniter The KOZI Previa Cast Iron pellet stove is factory equipped with an electric igniter. The electric igniter is a convenient way of lighting the fire in your heater without the use of lighter gels or starter fuels. Ask your dealer if an electric igniter is right for you.
a. “AUTO” Mode: With the switch in this position, your heater will turn itself on and off based on an externally wired switch. The most common use of this mode is with a wall thermostat. When wired to a wall thermostat, the heater will automatically light itself when the room temperature falls below the thermostat setting and will automatically turn itself off when the temperature reaches the thermostat setting.
Any millivolt rated switching device can be used with this control. The switch/thermostat must be wired to the terminals as shown in Figure 18. MX Control KOZI Wall Thermostat Thermostat Wires Board Connect Thermostat Wires Here Figure 18.
TO PREVENT INJURY OR DAMAGE TO THE HEATER, ALWAYS UN- PLUG THE HEATER FROM THE POWER OUTLET BEFORE SERVICING. 4.9 Damper Control The damper control rod is located on the left side of the heater. This rod controls the amount of air passing through the burn pot. By pushing the control rod in, you reduce the amount of air passing through the burn pot.
b. The circulation fan will remain off. c. The feed system begins to feed. The “AUGER” and ON/OFF” lights will begin to blink. e. The flame should appear within 5 to 10 minutes. 4. Adjust the HEAT SELECT setting to the desired level 5.
flame is fluctuating between feed drops, this indicates the amount of combustion air is too much for the amount of feed. In this case, close the air damper slightly and once again, allow the flame to stabilize. If the air damper is open too far, there is a chance of extinguishing the fire.
