Automatic Ignition - Harman XXV Owner's Manual

E. Automatic Ignition

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 feed motor for exactly
one minute. Turning to "TEST" again and again may load
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 is
open.
4. Adjust Feed Rate. If this is your first fire or you are trying
different pellets, set the feed adjuster to #4, Figure 4.6
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
off the front of the burn pot into the ash pan. Then scrape
the holed surface downward into the burn pot. When the
stove feeds, 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. Figure 4.7. 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 at maximum burn rate and during normal
operation, the ash bed will be larger.

into the auger tube and also allow you to check the motors
for operation.
NOTE: The auger motor will not operate with the view

9. Fill hopper with pellets and remove ashes as required.
Keep the hopper lid and firebox doors closed while in
operation. Maintain door seals in good condition. Failure
to do so will affect operation of the appliance and may
permit escape of smoke or gases into the living space.
