Pre-Ignition Checklist

1. Check Hopper - Make sure the hopper is clean and free of foreign
matter. (Including pellet fines and dust).
2. Fill Hopper - Fill the hopper with wood pellets. (Make sure that NO
parts of the bag or any foreign objects enter the hopper, as this may
cause harm to the auger feed system).
3. Close Hopper Lid - Take care to ensure there is no pellet material
on the hopper lid seating surfaces. (This stove has a safety switch
that will not allow pellets to feed with the hopper door open or ajar).
4. Check Igniter - Ensure that the igniter rod is in a good position, and
did not shift during transit. (Centered in the tube and 1/4" - 1/2" back
from flush)
5. Check Burn Pot - Seat the burn pot flush on the air intake/igniter
cradle. Ensure that the igniter port hole is toward the back, and that
the lip of the burn pot is not resting atop the front square catch.
6. Close Front Door - Ensure the main glass door is closed. (This
stove has a safety switch that will not allow pellets to feed unless
there is a negative pressure detected inside the stove).
7. Check Ash Pan Latches - Check the adjustable side latches for
the ash pan. Both should be snug and have close to even pressure.
8. Adjust Heat Tube Scraper - Push the heat tube scraper all the way
in and out of the way. (Knob and rod may get extremely hot during
operation)

and into the main power switch assembly block at the back of the
stove. Then flip the power switch to the On position. (- is on, 0 is
off)

the current program being used. It should read: HP21_U01 115V
60Hz quickly before displaying the home screen.

Combination Function button
on). Then the Enter button
display on the screen, and the auger will engage to slowly draw
pellets into the drop chute. After about a minute, pellets should start
dropping into the burn pot. Once pellets start to feed, press the Exit
button to stop the feeding. A "Feeding Off" message will
display. Now press the Combination Function button

12. Ready to start - The stove is now ready to start. (Empty any extra
pellets from the burn pot before igniting)
