Stove Controls altered by approximately 30% from its highest to its lowest setting giving the consumer tremendous control over their Omega. Burning alternate fuels in the pellet setting. It is not recommended to burn alternate fuels, or pellets with small particle sizes, on the pellet setting. Doing this may cause the Omega to run dirty.
Stove Controls • The auger trim button only affects the feed rate and not the combustion airflow. Therefore this will increase or decrease the air to fuel ratio. • You can increase or decrease all feed rates by two increments or steps. Each feed rate change will increase or decrease the feed rate by approximately 5% for all settings 1 through 5.

OFF. Green Light: For EF 3 & 4 this light will flash in conjunction with the pulses of the auger. For the EF2 the light signals you to put the stove into the auto position.
Glossary Burn Pot And Burn Pot Liner: This is were the pellets are dropped from the hopper and then burned. Blower Mechanism: Device used either to remove exhaust gases from the stove or move air over the heat exchanger and into the room Clearance To Combustibles: The distance required to maintain a safe operating distance to a combustible material.
