CLEARANCES The HYBRID-35 has been tested and listed for installation in regular and mobile homes.(refer figure 1 & 2) FLOOR PROTECTION: minimum 6” in the front and 6” on each side. The stove must be placed on a continuous (grouted joints) non-combustible material such as ceramic tile, cement board, brick, 3/8”...
COMBUSTION AIR SUPPLY For a mobile home installation the stove must be connected to an outside source of combustion air. A 3” inside diameter metallic pipe, either flexible or rigid, may be attached to the inlet at the stove’s rear (refer to figures 4, 5 EXHAUST &...
FILTERS INSTALLATION AND CLEANING The two filters for your convection blowers are supplied with the owner’s manual. Although the filters are not mandatory, they are useful to prevent dust from being dispersed into the room where the stove is located. If you install the filters, please make sure that they are cleaned on a regular basis as per our recommended maintenance schedule.
EQUIVALENT VENT LENGHT (EVL) The longer the run of pipe in your installation, the more restriction there is in the system. Therefore, larger diameter pipe should be used for longer runs. • Use 4” pipe if you have more than 15 feet of Equivalent Vent Length (EVL).
B. VERTICALLY WITH NEW CHIMNEY SYSTEM (Refer to Figure 17 – Venting through roof) NOTE: Follow Vent chimney manufacturer’s instructions. OPTION: To achieve a centered vertical installation, a 45º elbow and a clean-out tee can be used to offset the pipe from the exhaust outlet to the rear center of the stove.

OPERATION DISPLAY BOARD PROPER FUEL THIS STOVE IS APPROVED FOR BURNING PELLETIZED WOOD FUEL ONLY! Factory-approved pellets are those 1/4” or 5/16” in diameter and approximately 1” long. Longer or thicker pellets sometimes bridge the auger flights, which prevents proper pellet feed. Burning wood in forms other than pellets is not permitted.
UNIT CONTROLS The blowers and automatic fuel supply are controlled from the panel on the HYBRID-35. The control panel functions are as follows: Note: To display the available functions, just touch the control board at any place Select the desired function *The display will turn itself off after 2 minutes.
COMBEX Your stove uses a unique patented technology called COMBEX. As opposed to most other pellet stoves, which use only an exhaust blower, your HYBRID-35 uses a motor on which are mounted two housings with impeller blades. One housing serves for combustion, and the other for exhaust.
SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE Turning your OSBURN stove off is a matter of pressing on the control panel. The blowers will continue to operate until internal firebox temperatures have fallen to a preset level. The stove cannot restart before it has completely shut down. SAFETY FEATURES Your stove is equipped with a manual reset high temperature switch (also called heat sensor or heat switch).
OPERATING THE STOVE USING A THERMOSTAT A thermostat will help you maintain a constant house temperature automatically. A millivolt or 24 Volt thermostat is required. A fixed wall mount or remote model can be used. THERMOSTAT INSTALLATION • Unplug the stove from the power outlet. •...
MODES THERMOSTATIC MODE • To engage this mode, the thermostat icon must be pushed upon starting the stove. The heat setting is then selected using the “Heat Level” selector. When set in thermostatic mode, the stove will automatically run at the heat level selected until the set room temperature is reached.
OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS PLEASE READ THIS! a. If you notice a smoldering fire (burnpot full but no visible flame) AND a heavy smoke buildup in firebox, immediately TURN OFF the stove, but DO NOT unplug it. Do not open the door, change the damper setting or tamper with any controls on the stove.
