OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
will void all warranties. The design incorporates
automatic feed of the pellet fuel into the fire at
a carefully prescribed rate. Any additional fuel
introduced by hand will not increase heat output
but may seriously impair the stoves performance
by generating considerable smoke. Do not burn
wet pellets. The stove's performance depends
heavily on the quality of your pellet fuel. Avoid pellet
brands that display these characteristics:
• Excess Fines – "Fines" is a term describing crushed
pellets or loose material that looks like sawdust or
sand. Pellets can be screened before being placed
in hopper to remove most fines.
• Binders – Some pellets are produced with
materials to hold the together, or "bind" them.
• High ash content – Poor quality pellets will often
create smoke and dirty glass. They will create a
need for more frequent maintenance. You will
have to empty the burn pot plus vacuum the
entire system more often. Poor quality pellets
could damage the auger. We cannot accept
responsibility for damage due to poor quality
pellet.
CAUTION:
• KEEP FOREIGN OBJECTS OUT OF THE
HOPPER.
• THE MOVING PARTS OF THIS STOVE ARE
PROPELLED BY HIGH TORQUE ELECTRIC
MOTORS. KEEP ALL BODY PARTS AWAY
FROM THE AUGER WHILE THE STOVE IS
PLUGGED INTO AN ELECTRICAL OUTLET.
THESE MOVING PARTS MAY BEGIN TO
MOVE AT ANY TIME WHILE THE STOVE IS
PLUGGED IN.
PRE-START-UP CHECK
Remove burn pot, making sure it is clean and none
of the air holes are plugged. Clean the firebox, and
then reinstall burn pot. Clean door glass if necessary
(a dry cloth or paper towel is usually sufficient).
Never use abrasive cleaners on the glass or door.
Check fuel in the hopper, and refill if necessary.
BUILDING A FIRE
Never use a grate or other means of supporting
the fuel. Use only the burn pot supplied with this
heater. Hopper lid must be closed in order for the
unit to feed pellets. During the start-up period:
• Make sure the burn pot is free of pellets.
• DO NOT open the viewing door.
• DO NOT add pellets to the burn pot by hand.
NOTE: During the first few fires, your stove will
emit an odor as the high-temperature paint cures
or becomes seasoned to the metal. Maintaining
smaller fires will minimize this. Avoid placing items
on the stovetop during this period because the paint
could be affected. Attempts to achieve heat output
rates that exceed heater design specifications can
result in permanent damage to the heater.
OPTIMAL OPERATION
This pellet stove has been certified by the US EPA
to meet strict 2020 guidelines. To Insure this unit
produces the optimal minimal emissions, it is
critical to follow the following guidelines. To achieve
a "high burn" your stove should be set on setting 5
with the damper fully open. To achieve a "medium
burn" your stove should be set on setting 1 with the
damper fully closed. To achieve a "low burn" your
stove should be set on setting 1 with the damper
closed. Settings 2, 3 & 4 will give you a higher heat
output above medium and the damper should be
open for these settings. 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.
