OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
10. Salt water driftwood or other previously salt water
saturated materials;
11. Unseasoned wood; or
12. Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or particleboard.
The prohibition against burning these materials does
not prohibit the use of fire starters made from paper,
cardboard, saw dust, wax and similar substances
for the purpose of starting a fire in an affected wood
heater. Burning these materials may result in release
of toxic fumes or render the heater ineffective and
cause smoke.
UNIT PREPARATION
CAUTION:
• KEEP FOREIGN OBJECTS OUT OF THE HOPPER.
• THE MOVING PARTS OF THIS HEATER ARE PROPELLED
BY HIGH TORQUE ELECTRIC MOTORS. KEEP ALL
BODY PARTS AWAY FROM THE AUGER WHILE THE
HEATER IS PLUGGED INTO AN ELECTRICAL OUTLET.
THESE MOVING PARTS MAY BEGIN TO MOVE AT ANY
TIME WHILE THE HEATER IS PLUGGED IN.
After properly installing your heater, you will need to
attach the electrical cord to the right side blower housing
first; then plug it into a 110 Volt outlet (an outlet surge
protector is highly recommended).
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. To achieve a "medium
burn", your stove should be set on setting 1. To achieve a
"low burn", your stove should be set on setting 1. Setting
3 and 4 will give you a higher heat output above the
medium setting. If the door is opened while the stove is
in operation, it must be closed within 30 seconds or the
stove will shut down.
PERFORMING AN INITIAL BURN
You must perform an initial burn in this appliance before
installing it in your home or garage. This process is to
ensure that the appliances is functioning correctly, to
cure the high temperature paint and burn off any oil
that is present in the sheet metal components of the
combustion chamber. For the initial burn, only add a
small amount of fuel, approximately 4-5 lbs or about the
amount to fill a 2 lb coffee can. Operate the appliance on
the 3 or 4 heat setting for approximately 30 minutes to an
hour. There will probably be a small amount of smoke or
fumes irradiating from the appliance during this process.
Follow the Start-Up procedure below to begin your burn.
START-UP PROCEDURE
• DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START THE
FIRE; DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS
SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA OR ENGINE OIL.
• HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN CLOTHING
AND FURNITURE AWAY. CONTACT MAY CAUSE SKIN
BURNS. DO NOT TOUCH THE HOT SURFACES OF THE
HEATER. EDUCATE ALL CHILDREN ON THE DANGERS
OF A HIGH-TEMPERATURE HEATER. YOUNG CHILDREN
SHOULD BE SUPERVISED WHEN THEY ARE IN THE
SAME ROOM AS THE HEATER.
• NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN
FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID, OR
SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR "FRESHEN UP" A FIRE
IN THIS HEATER. KEEP ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL AWAY
FROM THE HEATER WHILE IT IS IN USE.
1.
Verify that the hopper is clean and free of foreign
matter.
2. Fill the hopper with wood pellets; do not allow any
part of the bag or any other foreign material into the
hopper, as this may jam the auger.
3. Ensure that all pellet matter is cleared from the
hopper seating surface.
4. Close the hopper lid. The unit WILL NOT feed fuel
with the hopper lid open.
5. Verify that there is no pellet fuel, ash, or foreign
matter in the burn-pot before starting the appliance.
6. Make sure that the viewing door and combustion
door is securely closed (the safety switch will not
allow the heater to feed fuel if they are left open.
7. Press the "ON" button on the control pad and set the
"heat RANGE" to your desired setting. The ON light
will be flashing and the light corresponding with the
heat setting will be light.
The heater will begin to feed fuel and the exhaust (draft)
blower is running. Note that the exhaust blower is pulsing.
The auto-start ignitor will ignite the fuel in approximately
5-10 minutes. In the start-up mode, the "ON" LED will
flash until it reaches a factory preset temperature. At that
point, the "ON" LED will come on solid and the heater will
begin to ramp up to your selected heat range. The Room
Air Blower will not function until the heater reaches a
factory preset temperature. Attempts to achieve heat
output rates that exceed heater design specifications can
result in permanent damage to the heater.
