Page 6: General Information
Different brands of pellets will feed at varying rates due to their size and density (length and diameter). PLEASE NOTE: MASPORT HEATING HAS NO CONTROL OVER THE MANUFACTURING OF PELLET FUEL AND WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR POOR HEATER PERFORMANCE OR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED BY INFERIOR PELLET FUELS. -
Page 7: General Operating Considerations
GENERAL OPERATING CONSIDERATIONS Proper Burn Characteristics: The flame in your Storm pellet heater should be bright yellow under normal operation. If the flame becomes 'lazy' with a reddish/orange colour, lower the feed rate on the Control Panel - this will allow unburnt fuels to clear away from the Fire Pot and induce better combustion. -

Page 9: Storm Operating Functions
STORM 2 OPERATING FUNCTIONS 1. CONVECTION FAN (ROOM AIR FAN) This fan draws room air from the back of the heater and passes the air through the heat exchanger into the room. The units sealed system keeps the room air separate from the the combustion air. The speed of the convection fan is linked to the heat controller. - Page 10 This is a safety device. In the event that the Convection Fan fails, this sensor will overheat and shut off the power to the Auger Motor turning the unit off. If this should happen, all voltages inside the heater will be shut down as a safety precaution. Please contact your Masport Heating Dealer for further assistance. 13. SHUT DOWN TEMPERATURE SENSOR This sensor has two functions: 1 - Should the fire go out, this sensor will shut the heater off when the Exhaust Temperature drops below set temperature.

10 minutes, then you can increase the heat setting to the desired level..If the unit does not start up the first time, push the Start Switch once more. Please contact your nearest Masport Heating Dealer if the unit will still not start. - Page 12 OPERATING PROCEDURES - Continued Running Procedure: 1) Ensure that your heater has sufficient pellets in the Hopper at all times while it is running. 2) Never put pellets that are wet, damp or affected by moisture into the Hopper. The moisture content of the pellets is specific to ensure that they burn accurately and do not block the Hopper and Pellet Feeder.

Page 13: Routine Cleaning
ROUTINE CLEANING The following areas need to be inspected: Note: Your Storm Pellet Heater will need to be shut off and cooled completely before routine cleaning is performed. ALWAYS disconnect power before doing any routine cleaning. FIRE POT: The Fire Pot should be cleaned every 8 hours of burn time to assure that the air holes have not become clogged with ash or clinkers. -
Page 14: Ongoing Care & Maintenance
Make sure the door glass is clear. If you have a gold door, ensure all residue has been cleaned off. 3) This is probably the ideal time to undergo all other periodical maintenance recommended.

Page 17: Adjusting Of Flue Damper Setting
ADJUSTING OF FLUE DAMPER SETTING: 1. After completion of flue installation the flue damper slide needs to be adjusted to achieve the best combustion conditions. Taking a reading of the vacuum inside the firebox with a vacuum gauge is the best way to measure the combustion conditions. - Page 18 GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR INSTALLING THE FLUE SYSTEM - Continued 100mm Outer Galvanised Flue Vent Cap Flashing 75mm Inner Stainless Flue Thimble Ceiling Plate Note: 1) Cut correct hole in plaster. 2) Put ceiling plate in position. 3) Insert bottom outer galvanised flue crimped end up in position on joists using angles. 4) Now proceed to join the outer flues in their positions, ensuring all gaps are complied with.

The Ignition light will flash when the heater is on. If the light is not flashing, press the Ignition switch again. If the light still does not flash and the pellets are not feeding, contact your Masport Heating Dealer. 6) I can see/smell smoke from my heater. -
Page 28: Curing The Paint
CURING THE PAINT Most high temperature paints operate in the same way. They use a resin, which dries at room temperature giving the paint the initial properties seen on an unused fire. Then when the fire is burned, this air dry resin burns away. At the same time, the silicone resin (silicone gives the paint its high heat resistance) in the paint will not cure until it is heated to high temperatures.
