RE-STARTING A WARM STOVE

 

 

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.

 

 
 
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 to 45 minutes. 

After the stove components stop running the “On/Off” and the BAR GRAPH lights stay on for 10 minutes. 

After the 10 minutes the “3” light on the bar graph will flash and the “On/Off” light will go off. 

To restart, refill hopper and press “Fuel Feed” button until pellets begin to fall into burnpot. Press “On/Off” button. 

 

REFUELING

 

 

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.  
 

BRECKWELL MAINTENANCE TOOL

 

 

A tool has been provided to help with the following functions: 

 

 

a. 

Stirring pellets in hopper

 – unlike liquids in a tank, pellets do not drain evenly into the auger. Bridging across the opening can occur. 

Pellets can hang up on the sides of the hopper. Occasionally “stirring” the hopper can help. 

 

NOTE: 

To help prevent bridging of pellets, common wax paper can be rubbed on the sidewalls and bottom of the hopper. 

 

b. 

Cleaning heat exchanger tubes – 

see instructions in “

CLEANING

”. 

 

c. 

Scrape ashes from burnpot.

SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE 

 

Turning your Breckwell stove off is a matter of pressing the “On/Off” control panel switch. The green light will go out. The blowers will 

continue to operate until internal firebox temperatures have fallen to a preset level. 

 

SAFETY FEATURES 

 

a.  Your stove is equipped with a high temperature thermodisc. This safety switch has two functions. 

 

1.  To recognize an overheat situation in the stove and shut down the fuel feed or auger system. 

 

2.  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 thermodisk 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. 

 

b.  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. Close the door and press “On/Off” button to continue operation of your stove.
