G. Hopper Lid Latch and Hopper Switch
1. Lift up the hopper lid and lock into open position. Now
you can fill the hopper with fuel.
2. The hopper switch is designed to shut down the feed
motor when the hopper lid is open. Leaving the lid open
too long can cause the fire to go out.

.
3. To close the hopper lid, while holding lid open with one
hand, push the bottom of the latch inwards to release
from locked position and then slowly close the hopper
lid.

Note
: The CAB50 has no hopper lid latch. The hopper switch
is located in a similar location and is activated by a magnet
attached to the Hopper Lid.

H. Starting Your First Fire
1. A thermostat is required for proper operation of this
appliance. If you have to adjust the feed rate after you
have started the fire, most of the pellets in the hopper will
need to be removed so start out with filling the hopper
approximately 1/4 full at this time. Set the thermostat to
its lowest setting and plug the power cord into nearby
outlet.
2.
The exhaust blower will stay on for approximately 18
minutes ev
en though the thermostat is not calling for heat.
This is normal.
3. Locate the heat output control switch mounted on the back
of the appliance in the upper left corner.
Figure 8.1 on
page 8.
Turn it to the “high” setting by pushing the top of the
control switch in and then adjust the thermostat to its
highest setting.
4. Look through the hole in the left lower side panel and you
will see the red call light on the control box will be on.
Figure 9.3
. This indicates the thermostat is calling for
heat. On the CAB50 the light can be viewed from behind
through the hole near the bottom left side of the rear panel.
5. The fuel feed system and the igniter should now be on.
6. For your first fire it will be necessary to
press the reset
button once approximately 2 minutes after start up and
again in 5 minutes.
Reset as needed or every 60 seconds
until pellets begin to drop into firepot. This will fill the feed
system and allow the appliance to begin dropping pellets.
O
r you can put a handful of pellets in the firepot to speed
up the process.
The appliance will continue to run as long
as the thermostat is calling for heat.
7. Once the appliance has ignited, let it burn for approximately
15 minutes, then set the thermostat to the desired room
temperature. Adjust the heat output control switch to the
desired setting.
