1. Fines are small pieces of broken pellets (sawdust). Fines do
not flow easily and often build up on the hopper funnel bottom
angles. These fines can be pushed into the feeder opening and
then fill the hopper with pellets. As the system works, they will
be burned.
2. The "TEST" cycle will operate the feeder motor for exactly one
minute. Turning to "TEST" again and again may purge too much
fuel into the burn pot causing excessive smoke on start-up.
3. The firebox low pressure switch will not allow the auger motor
or the igniter element to operate if the view door or the ash pan
door are open.
4. Adjust Feed Rate. If this is your first fire or you are trying different
pellets, set the feed adjuster to #4, Fig. 3. This is a conservative
number and will probably need to be increased. After you know
a feed rate setting that works well, use that setting. Remember,
if your feed rate is too high you may waste fuel.
5. This is usually a weekly maintenance procedure. Cleaning the
burn pot with the scraper with a small amount of new fuel in the
bottom is not a problem. First, scrape the ashes on the front of
the burn pot into the ash pan. Then scrape the holed surface
downward into the burn pot. When the stove is ignited these
scrapings will be pushed out by the feeder.
6. The ash pan can hold the ashes from approximately 1 ton of
premium fuel. This means the ashes will only need to be emptied
a few times a year.
7. Setting the feed adjuster # for maximum burn: With the unit
burning in "AUTO", turn to "Stove Mode" and put the fan on
"H". Set the Temperature Dial to #7. Allow the unit to burn for
about 30 minutes and check ash on front of burn pot. Fig. 5. If
the ash line is larger than 1", turn the feed adjuster from #4 to
#5. Allow another 30 minutes of burn time and check again. If
, at #6 setting, a 1" or less ash bed is not obtainable, it is not a
problem. The 1" ash bed is only a maximum burn rate and at
most normal settings the ash bed will be larger.

Starting First Fire
Igniter Switch to "mANuAl"
Make sure the unit is plugged into a 120 VAC, 60 HZ electrical
source. The power light should be the only light lit.
To avoid unwanted smoke, be sure there is no fuel or
combustibles in the ash pan prior to lighting.
1. Turn FEEd AdjuSTEr to desired feed rate. No. 4 is
good for most pellets.
2. Turn the mOdE SElECTOr to "OFF" and then to
the desired mode. This will reset control and start the
combustion motor.
3. Turn the TEmPErATurE dIAl to the desired setting.
4. Clean burn pot with scraper if necessary.
5. Fill burn pot with pellets, only level with front edge.
(Do Not Over Fill).
6. Apply starting gel on top of the pellets. Stir gel into
pellets for fast lighting.
SEE CAuTION bElOw. The use of a starting gel that is
commercially marketed for use with pellet stoves is permitted
ONLY when performing a cold start. Also be sure to perform
the above steps in sequence to ensure combustion blower
operation before applying the starting gel. Follow the starter
manufacturer's instructions for proper application.
7. light with a match, and close the door. Operation will
begin when the fire reaches the proper temperature.
8. Fill hopper with pellets and remove ashes as required.
