SLIDER/DAMPER SETTING:
THE SLIDER / DAMPER MUST BE SET AT TIME OF INSTALLATION, IT IS USED TO REGULATE
THE AIRFLOW THROUGH THE PELLET STOVE.
A Qualified Service Technician or Installer must set the Slider Damper.
If the unit has been placed in the HI / LOW mode,
the unit will be taken to a low or idle setting when
the thermostat is not calling for heat. When the
thermostat calls for heat, the unit will go to the
setting that is displayed on the control board Heat
Indicator. If the heating load is not great enough
when the stove is on low, the high limit switch
will turn the stove off and the switch will have to
be manually reset. To reset the high limit switch,
remove the right cabinet side. The switch is found
behind the control panel. Avoid setting off the
high limit switch.

The slider damper should
be set only on a hot stove
(operating for thirty (30)
minutes or more) by placing
a Magnahelic Pressure Gauge
in the firebox (test port is
located in the center of the
stove just below the door
opening). Set the slider
damper so that the pressure
reads 0.18” to 0.20” W.C.
(44.8 to 49.8 Pa). Some
fuels may require higher
or lower settings. The
pressure readings are taken
through a hole in the front
of the firebox under the door,
using a Magnehelic Gauge.
The slider damper is located
behind the left cab side. Undo
the two (2) T-20 torx screws
that hold the inspection cover
on the left side and remove.
