manual Start up
Igniter Switch to "mANuAl" (down position)
Make sure the unit is plugged into a 120 VAC, 60 HZ
electrical source. The power light should be the only
light lit.
NOTE: be sure there is no fuel or other combustibles
in the ash pan prior to lighting.
1. Turn FEED ADJUSTER to desired feed rate. No. 4
is good for most pellets.

2. Turn the MODE SELECTOR to “OFF” and then to
the desired mode. This will reset control and start
the combustion motor.
3. Turn the TEMPERATURE DIAL to the desired setting.
4. Clean burn pot with scraper if necessary.
5
5. Fill burn pot with pellets, only level with front edge.
(Do Not Over Fill).
6. Add starting gel on top of the pellets. Stir gel into
pellets for fast lighting.
7. Light starting gel with a match, and close the door.
Operation will begin when the fire reaches the proper
temperature.

8. Fill hopper with pellets and remove ashes as
required.
1, 6
Store fuel in a dry area, away from all ignition
sources and outside all limits of the stove's clearance
requirements to combustibles. Do not store the fuel were
it interferes with the refueling of the stove or emptying of
ashes. Do not store any ashes removed from the stove
near the fuel or other combustible materials.

Starting First Fire

1. Fines are small pieces of broken pellets (sawdust). Fines do
not flow easily and often build up on the hopper funnel bottom
angles. These fines can be pushed into the feeder opening and
then fill the hopper with pellets. As the system works, they will
be burned.
2. The "TEST" cycle will operate the feeder motor for exactly
one minute. Turning to "TEST" again and again may load too
much fuel into the burn pot causing excessive smoke on start-up.
3. The firebox low pressure switch will not allow the auger motor
or the igniter element to operate if the view door or the hopper
lid are open.
4. Adjust Feed Rate. If this is your first fire or you are trying
different pellets, set the feed adjuster to #4, Fig. 5. This is a
conservative number and will probably need to be increased.
After you know a feed rate setting that works well, use that
setting. Remember, if your feed rate is too high you may waste
fuel.
5. This is usually a weekly maintenance procedure. Cleaning
the burn pot with the scraper with a small amount of new fuel
in the bottom is not a problem. First, scrape the ashes off the
front of the burn pot into the ash pan. Then scrape the holed
surface downward into the burn pot. When the stove is ignited
these scrapings will be pushed out by the feeder.
6. The ash pan can hold the ashes from approximately 1 ton of
premium fuel. This means the ashes will only need to be emptied
a few times a year.
7. Setting the feed adjuster # for maximum burn: With the unit
burning in "AUTO", turn to "Stove Mode" and put the fan on
"H". Set the Temperature Dial to #7. Allow the unit to burn for
about 30 minutes and check ash on front of burn pot. Fig. 9. If
the ash line is larger than 1", turn the feed adjuster from #4 to
#5. Allow another 30 minutes of burn time and check again. If
, at #6 setting, a 1" or less ash bed is not obtainable, it is not
a problem. The 1" ash bed is only at maximum burn rate and
during normal operation, the ash bed will be larger.
