PANEL CONTROLS (SEE FIGURE 12)
The blowers and automatic fuel supply are controlled from a panel on the left-
hand side of the furnace. The control panel functions are as follows.
a.
ON/OFF SWITCH
• When pushed the stove will automatically ignite. No other firestarter is
necessary. The igniter will stay on for at least 10 and up to 15 minutes,
depending on when Proof of Fire is reached. The fire should start in
about 5 minutes.
•
The green light located above the On/Off button (in the On/Off box)
will flash during the ignition start-up period. (See figure 12)
•
The Feed Rate Advance is inoperable during the ignition start period.
When the red light continuously stays on the Feed Rate Advance can
be adjusted to achieve the desired heat output.
NOTE: If the stove has been shut off, and you want to re-start it while it is still
warm, the “on/off” button must be held down for 2 seconds.
b.
FUEL FEED SWITCH
• When the “Fuel Feed” button is pushed and held down the stove will
feed pellets continuously into the burnpot.
• While the stove’s auger system is feeding pellets the amber light (in the
“Fuel Feed” box) will be on. (See figure 12)
CAUTION: DO NOT USE THIS CONTROL DURING NORMAL OPERATION BECAUSE
IT COULD SMOTHER THE FIRE AND LEAD TO A DANGEROUS SITUATION.
c.
HIGH FAN SWITCH
• The room air fan speed varies directly with the feed rate. The “HIGH
FAN” switch overrides this variable speed function. It will set the room
air blower speed to high at any feed rate setting.
• When the “HIGH FAN” button is pushed the room air fan will switch to
its highest setting.
• When this button is pushed again the room air fan will return to its
original setting based on the Feed Rate Advance setting.
d.
RESET TRIM
Different size and quality pellet fuel may require adjustment of the “1” feed
setting on the Feed Rate Advance bar graph. This is usually a one-time adjustment based on the fuel you are
using. The “RESET TRIM” button when adjusted will allow for 3 different feed rate settings for the #1 feed setting
only. To adjust simply push the “RESET TRIM” button while the stove is operating at setting “1” and watch the bar
graph.
• When the “1” and “3” lights are illuminated on the bar graph the low feed rate is at its “lowest” setting.
(approx. 0.9 pounds per hour)
• When the “1” light is illuminated on the bar graph the low feed rate is at its “normal” setting.
• When the “1” & “4” lights are illuminated on the bar graph the low feed rate is at its “highest” setting.
NOTE: When the stove is set on “1” the “reset trim” values will be shown on the Feed Rate Advance bar graph.
For example if the Reset Trim is set to its lowest setting every time the stove is set to low the “1” and “3” lights will
be illuminated on the bar graph.
e.
HEAT LEVEL ADVANCE
• This button when pushed will set the pellet feed rate, hence the heat output of your stove. The levels of heat
output will incrementally change on the bar graph starting from level “1” to “4”.
NOTE: When dropping more than 2 heat level settings (i.e. 4 to 1) push the ‘High Fan’ button and allow the room
air fan to run at that setting for at least 5 minutes to prevent the stove from tripping the high temp thermodisk. If
the high temp thermodisk does trip see “SAFETY FEATURES”.
CAUTION: THE “4” SETTING IS DESIGNED FOR TEMPORARY USE ONLY. IF USED FOR EXTENDED PERIODS, IT CAN
SHORTEN THE LIFE EXPECTANCY OF THE UNITS COMPONENTS. AVOID USE AT THIS SETTING FOR MORE THAN ONE
HOUR AT A TIME.
