Pre-Lighting Instructions.

The Control Board has 4 separate programs. Each program is specific to a certain fuel.
Before lighting the furnace for the first time, be sure the correct program is chosen.
To change the program on the board, the furnace must be off and plugged in. The
programs are identical in operation, except for the Cycle Time. The Cycle time is the
total of the ON Time & OFF Time added together. The ON Times are constant, so this
means that the OFF Time is increased or decreased, depending on the program chosen.
The programs break down as follows:
1 - Program 1. The Cycle Time is 8.5 seconds. This program will be the default program
when the furnace is first plugged in. This program is for use with Pellets, Corn,
Wheat, Rye, Cherry Pits & Distillers Grain Pellets. (See figure 20 on page 32)
2 - Program 2. The Cycle Time is 7.5 seconds. This program is for use with Pellets,
Corn, Cherry Pits & Distillers Grain Pellets only. (See figure 20 on page 32)
3 - Program 3. The Cycle Time is 6.5 seconds. This program is for use with Pellets &
Cherry Pits. (See figure 20 on page 32)
4 - Program 4. The Cycle Time is 5.5 seconds. This program is for use with Pellets &
Cherry Pits. (See figure 20 on page 32)
As the Cycle Time increases, the BTU rate decreases. If the incorrect program is chosen
for a specific fuel, the burnpot will overload and the furnace will loose its fire and go out.
Another way to look at it is this: Burning pellet using program 1 will have a Lower BTU
rating than pellets burning on programs 2 through 4. The same is true for burning Corn
using program 1 will have a Lower BTU rating than corn burning on program 2. Looking
at the list above you see which fuels are approved for any specific program. Using any of
the other programs will cause the burnpot to overload.
The damper must be adjusted for each specific fuel as well and should be set before the
first fire as well.
Figure 18
To adjust the damper for other types of fuel,
use the following procedures:
First turn the setscrew clockwise until it
stops against the tube. See figure 18.
