standards. Ask your dealer for a recommended pellet type.
2. Please keep the door closed and sealed at all times during burning. This is for good effect
and prevents hot ash flying out. As soon as the door is opened the auger stops feeding
pellets and the appliance will go into shut-down mode.
3. The good burning features are a-bright yellow flame of the pellets burning with a little
jumping in the gratebar (combustion retort). Pellets should not pile up and there should be
no smoke. If the combustion pattern changes to a little dark glow with a lazy flame and smoke
appearing from the venting terminal, the convection blower to increase the air input needs
speeding up. This should only be carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.
4. For reducing the heat output, it is better to reduce the pellet feed. At the same time the
speeds of convection blower and exhaust blower should be turned down until the best effect is
attained. This should only be carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.
2.
Venting pipe and air input pipe should keep unblocked.
