OPENING DOOR
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.
ROOM AIR FAN
When starting your stove the Room Air Fan will not come on until the stove’s heat exchanger warms up. This
usually takes about 10 minutes from start-up.
IF STOVE RUNS OUT OF PELLETS
The fire goes out and the auger motor and blowers will run until the stove cools. This will take 30 minutes or longer
depending on the heat remaining in the appliance. After the stove components stop running all lights on the
display will go out and the two digit display will begin flashing “E3”
REFUELING
•
The hopper and stove top will be hot during operation; therefore, you should always use some type of hand
protection when refueling your stove.
• Never place your hand near the auger while the stove is in operation.
We recommend that you not let the hopper drop below ¼ full.
KEEP HOPPER LID CLOSED AT ALL TIMES EXCEPT WHEN REFILLING. DO NOT OVERFILL HOPPER.
SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE
Turning your stove off is a matter of pressing the “POWER” button on the display board. The green light will turn
back to red when the “POWER” button is pushed. The auger motor will stop, and the blowers will continue to
operate until the internal firebox temperatures have fallen to a preset level.
1.
Your stove is equipped with a high temperature thermodisc. This unit has a manual reset thermodisc. This
safety switch has two functions.
A.
To recognize an overheat situation in the stove and shut down the fuel feed or auger system.
B.
In case of a malfunctioning convection blower, the high-temperature thermodisc will automatically
shut down the auger, preventing the stove from overheating.
NOTE:
On some units, once tripped, like a circuit breaker, the reset button will have to be pushed before restarting
your stove. On other units the thermodisc has no reset button and will reset itself once the stove has cooled. The
manufacturer recommends that you call your dealer if this occurs as this may indicate a more serious problem.
A service call may be required.
2. If the combustion blower fails, an air pressure switch will automatically shut down the auger.
NOTE: Opening the stove door for more than 30 seconds during operation will cause enough pressure change to
activate the air switch, shutting the fuel feed off. The stove will shut down and show “E2” on the two digit display.
The stove has to fully shut down before restarting.
TAMPER WARNING
This wood heater has a manufacturer-set minimum low burn rate that must not be altered. It is against federal
regulations to alter this setting or otherwise operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with operating
instructions in this manual.
VISIBLE SMOKE
The amount of visible smoke being produced can be an effective method of determining how efficiently the
combustion process is taking place at the given settings. Visible smoke consist of unburned fuel and moisture
leaving your stove. Learn to adjust the air settings of your specific unit to produce the smallest amount of visible
smoke. Wood that has not been seasoned properly and has a high wood moisture content will produce excess
visible smoke and burn poorly.
WARNING: Never shut down this unit by unplugging it from the power source.
