Igniter Switch to "AUTO" (up position)
Makesuretheunitispluggedintoaproperlygrounded,120
VAC,60Hzelectricalsource.Thepowerlightshouldbethe
onlylightlit.
Note: Be sure there is no fuel or other combustibles in
the ash pan prior to lighting.
1. TurnModeSelectorto"OFF".
2. Fillhopperwithpellets.
3. Cleanburnpotwithscraper,ifnecessary.
4. Ifstartingafteranemptyhopper,turnFeedLimitto"TEST"
(forone60secondcycle).Thiswillowpelletsintothe
augertubeandalsoallowyoutocheckthemotorsfor
operation.
NOTE: The auger motor will not operate with the view
door open.
5. TurnFeedLimitto#4.
6. FliptheIgniterSwitchupintothe"AUTO"position.
7. TurntheTemperatureDialtothedesiredroomtemperature.
8. TurnModeSelectortoRoomTemperatureorConstant
Burnmode.
9. Fillhopperwithpelletsandremoveashesasrequired.
Keep the hopper lid and rebox doors closed while in
operation.Maintaindoorsealsingoodcondition.Failure
todosowillaffectoperationoftheapplianceandmay
permitescapeof smoke orgasesinto the living space
causingsmokedetectorstosound.
1. Fines are small pieces of broken pellets (sawdust). Fines do
notoweasilyandoftenbuilduponthehopperfunnelbottom
angles.Thesenescanbepushedintothefeederopeningand
thenllthehopperwithpellets.Asthesystemworks,theywill
be burned.
2. The "TEST" cycle will operate the feed motor for exactly one
minute. Turning to "TEST" again and again may load too much
fuel into the burn pot causing excessive smoke on start-up.
3. Thereboxlowpressureswitchwillnotallowtheaugermotor
or the igniter element to operate if the view door is open.
4. AdjustFeedRate.Ifthisisyourrstreoryouaretryingdifferent
pellets, set the feed limit to #4, Figure 4.6 This is a conservative
number and will probably need to be increased. After you know
a feed rate setting that works well, use that setting. Remember,
if your feed rate is too high you may waste fuel.
5. This is usually a weekly maintenance procedure. Cleaning the
burn pot with the scraper with a small amount of new fuel in the
bottom is not a problem. First, scrape the ashes off the front of
the burn pot into the ash pan. Then scrape the holed surface
downward into the burn pot. When the stove feeds, these
scrapings will be pushed out by the feeder.
6. The ash pan can hold the ashes from approximately 1 ton of
premium fuel. This means the ashes will only need to be emptied
a few times a year.
7. Setting the feed limit # for maximum burn: With the unit burning
in"AUTO",turn to"StoveMode"andput thefanon"H".Set
theTemperatureDialto#7.Allowtheunittoburnforabout30
minutes and check ash on front of burn pot. Figure 4.7. If the
ash line is larger than 1", turn the feed limit from #4 to #5. Allow
another 30 minutes of burn time and check again. If, at #6 setting,
a 1" or less ash bed is not obtainable, it is not a problem. The
1" ash bed is only at maximum burn rate and during normal
operation, the ash bed will be larger.
