Page 11: Operation
Chapter 3 – Maintenance Page 7 OPERATION ROPER The LINCOLN Multi‐Fuel Stove is capable of burning whole shelled corn and wood pellets. The quality of the fuel you use will have a dramatic effect in the performance of the stove. Higher quality fuels will provide a cleaner and more efficient burn, while producing less ash, and generally reducing the amount of creosote developed in the stove and exhaust flue. For these reasons we strongly recommend that you use the highest quality of fuels available in your area, and that you experiment with a couple of different brands before settling on a particular brand. Once you find a quality fuel, keep using that brand or source to achieve consistent burns. HE USE OF OTHER THAN WOOD PELLETS CONFORMING TO THE ELLET UELS NSTITUTE STANDARDS OR WHOLE SHELLED CORN IS NOT . APPROVED AND MAY RESULT IN THE UNSAFE OPERATION OF THE STOVE AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY . Although it does not happen frequently, there has been more than one bag of LWAYS CHECK YOUR FUEL SUPPLY FOR FOREIGN OBJECTS corn or pellets that had foreign objects such as screws, bolts, nuts, etc., accidentally packaged along with the corn or wood pellet. For that reason we strongly recommend that you check your fuel for foreign objects. The stove warranty does not cover damages caused by foreign objects in the fuel supply. Shelled Corn Corn must be clean and free of any debris. Never burn corn directly from the field. You should use only clean and filtered bagged corn. C . Ideally, the corn will be as low of a moisture content as possible for best ORN MUST HAVE LESS THAN MOISTURE performance. 12% moisture is the highest that should ever be used. Wet corn will not burn as reliably and can lead to the deterioration of stove components, reduced efficiency, and void all warranties. Store the corn in a dry place and keep the bags or containers sealed. This will help to prevent the corn from absorbing excess moisture. ... -
Page 12: First Time Use Pre -Start Check
Chapter 3 – Maintenance Page 8 ‐S IRST IME SE TART HECK Prior to using your stove for the first time, make sure that it is properly installed in accordance with all recommendations in the owner’s manual and your local building codes. Ensure that all foreign objects are out of the hopper, ash pan, and firebox area. During the first few fires, your stove will emit an odor as the high temperature paint cures or becomes seasoned to the metal. Maintaining smaller fires will minimize this. Avoid placing items on stovetop during this period because the paint finish could be affected. IGHTING IRECTIONS Remove the burn pot, making sure it is clean and none of the air holes are plugged. Clean the firebox, and then reinstall burn pot. It is important to have the fuel spreader located toward the rear of the stove. Clean door glass if necessary (a dry cloth or paper towel is usually sufficient). If a dry cloth is not sufficient, feel free to use a small amount of Windex or 409. Spray the cloth lightly prior to wiping the glass. Wait for the glass to dry if you used a cleaner before you light the stove. Check fuel in the hopper, and refill if necessary. NEVER USE CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID, GASOLINE, OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS AS A FIRE STARTER. Keep all such liquids away from the stove while in use, and never store these liquids in close proximity to the stove. Use only approved fire starters. Your local dealer can provide you with approved fire starters. Follow the directions below in order to start a fire when using corn or wood. When starting a fire DO NOT WALK AWAY FROM THE UNIT ‐ and the stove is burning well. This will take 10 to 15 minutes. UNTIL ALL START UP PROCEDURES HAVE BEEN COMPLETED Make sure the stove is in the “Off” mode (All lights on the control panel are off). Make sure the stir rod is in place and securely attached. Although unnecessary for wood pellets, the stir rod is required for burning corn. ... -
Page 13: Control Panel
Chapter 3 – Maintenance Page 9 ONTROL ANEL The control panel is located on the left hand side of the LINCOLN Multi‐Fuel Stove. It will allow you to control the operation of your stove and achieve the desired level of warmth. Turning the unit On or Off, as well as adjusting the heat level setting, and setting the appropriate fuel type is all accomplished with the control panel. The unit has two modes of operation. The mode of operation switch can be adjusted to change between each mode of operation. One is for use with a thermostat (Thermostat), and the other is for use without a thermostat (Manual). The ON/OFF button will turn your unit on or off depending on which mode it is in currently. When you first start your stove by pressing the ON/OFF button, the stove will go into its start‐ up cycle. The combustion fan will come on (low setting) and the unit will conduct a self‐ diagnostics. Four minutes later, the auger will begin to feed fuel into the burn pot. The FUEL TYPE button allows you to select either Pellets or Corn depending upon the fuel type you are using. This unit is only approved for use with wood pellets or whole shelled corn. If burning a mixture of corn and pellets you should select corn. Having the wrong fuel type selected could result in damage to your stove and increase safety hazards. T IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU SELECT THE PROPER FUEL TYPE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE . FUEL YOU ARE BURNING The HEAT LEVEL button will increase or decrease the heat level setting of your stove from Low (1) to High (5). DO NOT USE THE HIGH SETTING OF #5 FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME. The #5 heat level setting should only be used for short durations (two hours max) at a time with several hours between each use of the #5 setting. Using the #5 heat level setting for long periods will greatly shorten the life expectancy of your stove, its components, and may even lead to damage or warping of the unit. The HIGH FAN button will over‐ride the pre‐programmed convection fan speed and increase the convection fan to high speed the first time you press it. Press again, and you will return the fan to its programmed speed. It is best to allow the convection fan to run at the pre‐programmed speed for optimal efficiency. If you lower the heat level by three or more settings it is good to run the high fan for about 15 minutes. The AUGER FEED button will cause the auger to feed additional fuel into the burn pot. Pressing and holding the Auger Feed button ... - Page 14 Chapter 3 – Maintenance Page 10 Changing Heat Levels When adjusting the heat level setting, keep in mind that you will experience an approximate 3 minute delay between successive heat level increases. This delay is there in order to allow the fire to stabilize between each heat level setting. This delay affects not only the auger feed rate, but also the blower speeds. When the Heat Level setting is increased or decreased, the fuel feed rate, convection fan speed and combustion fan speed are all affected after the 3 minute built‐in delay. HENEVER YOU CHANGE THE HEAT LEVEL SETTING IT IS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA TO OBSERVE THE FIRE FOR OR MINUTES AND TO ADJUST . THE DAMPER IF NEEDED Damper Control The damper is located just beneath the main door. You will initially adjust your damper for the best performance of your stove depending on your operating heat level, altitude, exhaust configuration, and type and quality of fuel. After that, you should not need to adjust the damper on a regular basis unless you change the heat level. The combustion blower will change speeds when you change your heat level setting. This substantially reduces the need for damper adjustments so keep in mind that minor adjustments to the damper can have a big effect. When changing fuel brands or type, closely observe the operation of the stove and make adjustments to the damper as needed. Also monitor the stove until you become familiar with how it operates Be sure to use the maintenance tool provided or a pair of insulated fireplace gloves if and when you do adjust the damper. HE DAMPER CAN BECOME HOT DURING NORMAL OPERATION O AVOID BURNING ...
- Page 15 Chapter 3 – Maintenance Page 11 AVOID OVERFIRING YOUR STOVE! If at any time you observe a portion of the stove glowing red (other than the stir rod in the burn pot), you are overfiring the unit or some other malfunction has occurred. Immediately initiate shut down procedures by pressing the On/Off button one time. Allow the unit to go through the pre‐programmed shut down cycle and contact your dealer. Observe the unit to ensure it does indeed shut down properly. Do not unplug the stove as this will prevent the blowers from running and cooling your unit and could result in admitting smoke into the house. Restarting a warm stove On occasion, the stove may have to be restarted when, for example, it has been shut off for ash cleaning. If there is no fire or glowing embers in the burn pot and no smoke present in the firebox, the viewing door can be opened. If the door is open for 30 seconds or more while the fans are running, the air pressure safety switch will deactivate and prevent the auger feed from operating, as indicated by the Heat Level 2 (red) light blinking. The fans will continue to run. You may then remove the Stir Rod Cotter Pin and remove the Stir Rod and Burn Pot to remove the ashes and unburned fuel. CAUTION: THE BURN POT AND STIR ROD WILL BE HOT AND CAN CAUSE BURNS TO UNPROTECTED SKIN. USE THERMALLY INSULATED GLOVES TO REMOVE THE STIR ROD COTTER PIN, STIR ROD AND BURN POT. Following the Lighting Instructions, place wood pellets in the burn pot, apply starter gel and light. Allow one to two minutes for the wood pellets to catch fire. Then shut the door, and press the On/Off button on the Control Panel. After approximately four minutes, you should observe the stove resume feeding fuel to the burn pot. Opening the Fuel Hopper Lid The stove is equipped with an auger interlock switch which interrupts power to the fuel feed auger when the lid is open. This is a safety feature required by the safety codes which will avoid injury should fingers or clothing become entangled with the fuel feed auger. Depending on the heat level the stove at which the stove is operating, the fire in the burn pot may extinguish within a few minutes if the hopper lid is left open. ...

Page 16: Heat Level Light Indicators
Chapter 3 – Maintenance Page 12 EAT EVEL IGHT NDICATORS The LINCOLN Multi‐Fuel Stove has five heat level settings that range from Low to High. This display serves multiple purposes and you need to be familiar with these purposes. These five settings show you not only what heat level setting the stove is operating on, but they will also show you error diagnostic codes if your stove is not operating properly. During normal operation one of the heat level lights will be lit up. As you press this HEAT LEVEL button you can increase or decrease the heat level setting from Low to High. Whichever light is lit is the heat level setting you have the stove set to. Keep in mind that when you change the heat level (either up or down), there is a three minute delay between each change to allow the stove to adjust to the new fuel rate. For example, let’s assume that you are running the stove on the Low heat level. You want to increase the stove to the third heat level setting to get more heat. Press the HEAT LEVEL advance button and the second light will come on. Press it again, and the third light will come on. After approximately three minutes the auger feed rate and convection fan speed will increase to the second heat level setting. The stove will continue to function on the second heat level setting for three minutes. After three minutes the auger feed rate and convection fan speed will then increase to the third heat level setting. The highest heat level (#5) should only be used for short periods of time in order to rapidly bring up the temperature of your home. Do not use this setting for more than 2 hours at a time, and be sure to allow several hours between each use. Prolonged use of this setting could damage your stove, shorten the life of the stove components, and even void your warranty. If you feel the need to use the #5 setting for long periods of time, you should consider using your home furnace to supplement your heat. Error Codes The Heat Level lights will also give you an error message if the stove is not functioning properly, or if the stove shuts down during normal operation for some reason. This error message will be a flashing light on either the second, third, or fourth heat level. It is very important to take notice of which light is flashing if you are having trouble operating your stove. This is a critical piece of information to supply to your dealer or the technical support department. If the second light is flashing, this is an indication that the problem is related to airflow in the unit. Most of the time this is related to a dirty stove or exhaust pipe. Cleaning your stove and/or exhaust pipe well will generally resolve this problem. Also keep in mind that if you leave the viewing door open for more than 30 seconds the stove will shut down and the second light will flash. If the third light is flashing, this is an indication that either one of the POF thermodisc has tripped or is not functioning correctly, or you may have an auger jam, or you may have left the hopper lid open. ... -
Page 17: Optional Thermostat
Chapter 3 – Maintenance Page 13 PTIONAL HERMOSTAT Installation Installing an optional thermostat may help you maintain a constant house temperature automatically. A millivolt thermostat is required for proper operation. A fixed wall mount or Breckwell’s hand held remote could be used. (Contact your dealer or Breckwell to purchase a remote control or for more information.) A millivolt thermostat is required. Unplug the stove from the power outlet. The two thermostat wires connect to the thermostat terminal block on the lower left side of the back of the control panel. Insert the two wires in the terminal side and tighten the two screws to secure the wires. Either wire can be inserted into either terminal. Thermostat Operation After properly installing the thermostat, move the mode of operation switch on the front of the control panel into the Thermostat mode. Plug the stove back into the power outlet. You are now ready to use the thermostat with your stove. The thermostat will operate the stove in a “High/Low” mode. You will start your stove following the standard lighting directions previously discussed. You will then set your stove to the desired “high” heat level setting. Adjust the damper for the best operation; a good starting point for the damper is even with the ash lip, which is about halfway out. The “high” level can be anything above the Low setting up to the third heat level. . OU SHOULD NOT USE THE FOURTH OR FIFTH HEAT LEVEL WITH A THERMOSTAT When the thermostat is calling for heat, the unit will run on the heat level that you have the stove set at. When the thermostat is no longer calling for heat, the stove will automatically cycle down to the low heat level setting. The unit will remain on the low heat level setting until the thermostat again calls for heat. At ... -
Page 18: Control Panel Reset
Chapter 3 – Maintenance Page 14 ONTROL ANEL ESET It may become necessary to reset the control panel to the original factory specifications and settings. This could be due to erratic operation from the control panel, power fluctuations, or other reasons. It is easy to accomplish and will often correct any frustrating issues that you may be having. In order to reset the control panel, simply change the fuel type. For instance, if you have been burning the stove on the PELLETS settings, press the FUEL TYPE button to change the fuel type to CORN. Press it again to change back to PELLETS and you have reset the control panel to the original factory settings. The same is true if you go from CORN to PELLETS and back again to CORN. ‐ HE UNIT MUST BE IN THE START UP CYCLE IN ORDER TO CHANGE THE FUEL TYPE OU CANNOT CHANGE THE FUEL TYPE WHILE THE UNIT IS .

Page 20: Cleaning
Chapter 3 – Maintenance Page 16 LEANING Interior Chambers The two ash cleanout doors in the firebox can be removed for periodic cleaning. These doors allow access to the chamber behind the firebox. You must periodically vacuum ashes from this chamber. Depending on the amount of fuel you burn and the ash content of the fuel, you may need to clean these chambers as often as every other week. For most people, once a month is sufficient. Closely observe the amount of ash removed during the first several cleanings to get a good idea of how often you need to clean. When cleaning behind these doors, be very thorough. Do not just vacuum what you can see. You need to get high up inside of these chambers and to the left and right with your vacuum. If your vacuum nozzle is not small enough to get high up inside of these chambers, you should purchase an attachment that can. The ash dump slider plates can be opened allowing the ash and debris that has accumulated in the combustion chamber to be brushed and scrapped down into the ash pan. This can be accomplished as needed, until the ash pan begins to fill. Once the ash pan starts to fill, remove the ash pan and dispose of the ashes in a safe and environmentally friendly manner. See “Ash Disposal”. If you burn a lot of wood pellets, you may need to remove creosote, which can accumulate rapidly under certain conditions. A small wire brush can be used. It is important to remove this creosote because it is highly combustible. INSPECT BEHIND THESE CLEANING PLATES AT LEAST BI‐WEEKLY UNTIL YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH HOW ASHES AND CREOSOTE ACCUMULATE WITH YOUR OPERATING PRACTICES. The cleaner these chambers are, the more efficiently the stove will burn. Use a small wire brush to also clean the inside of the chamber walls, above the access doors. Blowers DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE SERVICING UNIT. Cleaning ‐ Over a period of time, ashes or dust may collect on the blades of both the combustion blower and convection blower. Periodically the blowers should be vacuumed clean as these ashes can impede performance. Creosote may also accumulate in the combustion blower. ... - Page 21 Chapter 3 – Maintenance Page 17 Chimney & Vent Cleaning Creosote Formation – When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors, which combine with moisture in the air and flue gases to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney and accumulates on the flue lining. If ignited, this creosote burns very hot, and may damage the chimney or lead to a catastrophic house fire. Despite their high efficiency, all wood‐burning stoves in time, accumulate creosote which must be removed. Fly Ash – This accumulates in the horizontal portion of an exhaust run. Though noncombustible, it may impede the normal exhaust flow. It should therefore be periodically removed. Inspection and Removal – The chimney connector and chimney or pellet vent should be inspected regularly to determine if a creosote or fly ash build‐up has occurred. At a minimum, it should be checked after every ton of fuel burned. If burning less than a ton per year the exhaust flue should still be inspected at least twice a burning season; once at the beginning of the season, and then again halfway through the season. If creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire. Inspect the system at the stove connection and at the chimney top. Cooler surfaces tend to build creosote deposits quicker, so it is important to check the chimney from the top as well as from the bottom. The creosote should be removed with a brush specifically designed for the type of chimney or pellet vent in use. A qualified chimney sweep can perform this service. It is also recommended that before each heating season the entire system be professionally inspected, cleaned and, if necessary, repaired. To clean the chimney, detach the vent at the combustion blower transition where it is attached to the blower. ECOMMENDED AINTENANCE CHEDULE Use this as a guide under average‐use conditions.

Page 22: Troubleshooting Guide
Chapter 4 – Troubleshooting Page 18 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE When your stove acts out of the ordinary, the first reaction is to call for help. This guide may save time and money by enabling you to solve simple problems yourself. Problems encountered are often the result of only five factors: 1) poor fuel; 2) poor operation or maintenance; 3) poor installation; 4) component failure; 5) factory defect. You can usually solve those problems related to 1 and 2. Your dealer can solve problems relating to 3, 4 and 5. Refer to diagrams on page 22 to help locate indicated parts. For the sake of troubleshooting and using this guide to assist you, you should look at your heat level setting to see which light is flashing. The Low Heat Level is considered the #1 Light; the one just above the #2 light, the third light is the #3 light, etc., with the High Heat Level being considered the #5 light. ** CAUTION – UNPLUG THE STOVE FROM ALL POWER PRIOR TO ATTEMPTING TO SERVICE THE UNIT! ** TOVE HUTS FF AND THE ECOND IGHT LASHES Possible Causes: Possible Remedies: (Unplug stove first when possible) Airflow switch hose or stove attachment pipes for hose are blocked.
