14 OPERATIONS
PANEL CONTROLS
(See Figure 19)
The blowers and automatic fuel supply are controlled from a panel on the left-hand side of the AP2000.
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 to 7 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 19)
The Heat Level Advance is inoperable during the ignition start period. When the green light
continuously stays on the Heat Level Advance can be adjusted to achieve the desired heat output.
NOTE:
When not connected to a thermostat 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 green light (in the “Fuel Feed” box) will be
illuminated. (See figure 19)
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
Heat Level Advance setting.
If the “HIGH FAN” setting is used for extended periods of time it can shorten the life expectancy of
the room air fan. Avoid use at this setting for more than one hour at a time.
d. RESET
TRIM
Different size and quality pellet fuel, and installation altitude, may require adjustment of the “1” feed
setting on the Heat Level 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” & “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. (Approx. 1.1 to 1.2 pounds per hour)
NOTE:
When the stove is set on “1” the “reset trim” values will be shown on the Heat Level 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 “4” 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 “5”.
NOTE:
When dropping 3 or more heat level settings (4 to 1, or 5 to 2 or 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 thermodisc. If the high temp thermodisc does trip see “
SAFETY FEATURES”
on the next
page.
CAUTION:
THE “5” SETTING IS DESIGNED FOR TEMPORARY USE ONLY. IF USED FOR
EXTENDED PERIODS, IT CAN SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE THE LIFE EXPECTANCY OF THE
ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS. AVOID USE AT THIS SETTING FOR MORE THAN ONE OR TWO
HOURS AT A TIME.
