OPERATION

THEORY OF OPERATION
1. Combustion occurs in the fire pot, supported by
air introduced to and under the fire pot. Note that
some air blows in from the top of the combustion
chamber; this helps keep ash and debris from
accumulating on the door.
2. The exhaust blower draws combustion products
from the stove and directs it out user-installed
venting.
3. The auger transfers pellets from the hopper to the
fire pot to sustain the fire.
4. A convection blower propagates air along the
outside of the fire box, circulating warm and clean
air into the room.

APPROVED FUEL:
Do not use less than PFI premium-grade pellets. Use
100% natural wood pellets, untreated and without
bonding agents added (max bark porportion of 5%)
are the only fuel approved for use with this pellet stove.
For best results see the specifications below:
• Calorific Value of 5.3 kWh/kg
• Density of 700 kg/m 3
• The pellets should be low ash (less than 1 % ash)
• The pellets should be less then 30mm long, with a
diameter between 5 and 6.5 mm.
• Do not use the pellet sediment & debris at the

bottom of the pellet container.
• Store pellets in sacks, made of environmentally
neutral or biologically degradable plastic or from
paper (2-3 layers / similar to cement packaging).
Use of wood pellets that do not meet these
specifications may result in ignition difficulty,
accelerated creosote or flyash build up, incomplete
combustion, low heat yield, and blackening of the glass
in the door.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR
FLUIDS TO START THE FIRE.
CAUTION: DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR
FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE,
NAPHTHA OR ENGINE OIL.

BURNING THESE MATERIALS MAY RESULT IN
RELEASE OF TOXIC FUMES OR RENDER THE
HEATER INEFFECTIVE AND CAUSE SMOKE
Do not store wood pellet fuel or other fire starting
materials on floor protector, underneath stovepipe,
or anywhere within minimum clearances from
