Operation
THE AUTOMATIC FIRESTARTER
1. Fill hopper and clean burn pot.
2. Press “On/Off” button. Make sure the green light comes on.
3. The damper should be completely closed or open no more than ¼ of the way during start-up. This will vary
depending on your installation and elevation. Once re is established adjust for desired ame increasing the
amount the damper is open as the heat setting is increased. (See “DAMPER CONTROL”)
4. Adjust feed rate to desired setting by pressing “Heat Level Advance” button. If re doesn’t start in 12 minutes,
press “On/Off”, wait a few minutes, clear the burn pot, and start procedure again.
DAMPER CONTROL
The damper control lever is located on the back of the stove on the lower left side. The damper adjusts the
combustion air. This control is necessary due to the varied burn characteristics of individual installations, different
pellet brands, and pellet feed rates. It allows you to improve the efciency of your stove. Providing correct
combustion air will reduce the frequency of cleaning your glass door and prevent the rapid buildup of creosote
inside your stove and chimney.
You should adjust the damper based on the re’s appearance. A low, reddish, dirty re can be improved by
turning the damper slightly to the right. A “blow torch” re can be improved by turning the damper to the left a
little bit.
As a general rule, on lower feed rate settings, the damper should be farther to the left closing it off. On higher
feed rates, the damper should be open more by having it set more towards the right. Through trial and error, you
will nd the best setting. Consult your dealer if you need help.
NOTE: On heat range “1”, damper should be either completely closed or open no more than a ¼ of the way. If
damper is open to far, it can cause the re to go out.
OPENING DOOR
If the door is opened while the stove is in operation, it must be closed within 30 seconds or the stove will shut
down. If the stove shuts down, push the “On/Off” button to re-start your stove. The stove will have to fully shut
down and turn off before you will be able to restart the stove.
ROOM AIR FAN
When starting your stove, the Room Air Fan will not come on until the stove’s heat exchanger warms up. This
usually takes about 10 minutes from start-up.
IF STOVE RUNS OUT OF PELLETS
The re goes out and the auger motor and blowers will run until the stove cools. This will take 30 minutes or longer
depending on the heat remaining in the appliance. After the stove components stop running all lights on the
display will go out and the two digit display will begin ashing “E3”.
REFUELING
• The hopper and stove top will be hot during operation; therefore, you should always use some type of hand
protection when refueling your stove.
• Never place your hand near the auger while the stove is in operation.
We recommend that you not let the hopper drop below ¼ full.
