dHC 2000 sTarT-uP sequenCe (15 minuTes) - manual mode, FaCTory seTTing:
NOTE: No Thermostat or Wall Switch
1. Push the ON/OFF button to start. The stove may take up to 30 seconds to establish rebox vacuum.
2. The ON/OFF light turns on solid.
3. The ON/OFF light starts to flash after the vacuum sensor has closed (approximately 15 seconds).
• The Auger Light will flash with each pulse of the auger (the auger feed rate is pre-programmed during
start-up). The auger light flashes:
- 3 seconds ON
- 8 seconds OFF
5. The combustion blower comes on at full speed.
6 a. The ignitor comes on.
b. The convection blower stays off.
c. The heat level indicator will show the heat level that the stove will run at after start-up.
d. The operator has no control over the start-up sequence. The operator can press and hold the
manual feed button to run the auger continuously for 60 seconds and then will have to press again for
another 60 seconds. The operator can also pre-set the heat output setting for operation. When the
unit reaches operating temperature the heat output will go to that setting.
7 a. The unit should light after 5 to 12 minutes.
b. Once the 120°F (49°C) exhaust temperature sensor closes, the convection blower will come on.
8. Fifteen minutes after pushing the start button, the ON/OFF light will change to solid. This signals that
the unit is at operating temperature.
dHC 2000 normal oPeraTion - manual mode, FaCTory seTTing:
The operator can now set the heat output, low feed trim, and whether the convection blower is ON or
OFF (depending on model).
The convection blower can be turned OFF by depressing the convection blower control button.( MERIDIAN
ONLY: When the air jacket reaches 160°F (71°C) the convection blower will come on high, cooling the
unit). For the best efficiency, the convection blower should be left on at all times.
When operating on LOW HEAT LEVEL, the feed rate can be adjusted, using the auger trim, for different
quality fuels.
Please note: When the heat output is changed, the combustion blower and convection blower speed
change as well.
dHC 2000 sHuT down - manual mode, FaCTory seTTing:
1. Push ON/OFF button to turn stove off.
2. All the lights will turn off
3. The auger will stop feeding
4. The combustion blower goes to full speed until the exhaust temperature sensor opens, stopping all
motors.
