P43 Pellet Stove
Stove temperature Mode
In the Stove Temperature Mode and with the igniter
toggle switch in the Auto position, the stove will light
automatically and can be adjusted to the desired setting
using the same temperature control dial as is used in
the Room Temperature Mode. The heat output and fuel
consumption will remain constant regardless of room
temperature. The settings from 1 to 7 on the inner ring
of the temperature dial provide for relative heat output
settings with 1 being low and 7 being the maximum.
In Stove Temperature Mode, the stove will not
automatically shut off unless the stove runs out of fuel
or is turned off.
Never pull the plug to shut down the stove. This will stop
the combustion blower and smoke will escape through
window and door gaskets.
When the igniter
toggle switch is set to manual in this
mode, the distribution blower will not turn on with a
temperature dial setting from 1 to 5. The advantage of
this mode is to allow the operator to have a large viewing
fire without blowing extra heat into the room.
During
manual
operation, with the temperature dial set
at #5 or less, the distribution fan will not operate. A #5
on the temperature dial and a #5 on the feed adjuster is
approximately 80% output. It is not necessary to operate
the distribution blower below this point. Therefore, the
control allows a higher burn rate ( a larger viewing fire)
without an excess of hot air blowing into the room.
An example of when to use the Manual Stove Tempera-
ture Mode is if you want to watch a large fire and the
room is already up to temperature. The Stove Tempera-
ture Mode allows you to have a larger fire and a lower
sound level, without the distribution blower.
nOte: during the use of this mode, if you keep
increasing the temperature dial setting to increase
the fire size, the distribution blower will automati
-
cally come on when the eSP temperature reaches
350
o
F, or 81% output.
Feed adjuster Knob
For most premium grade pellet fuels the Feed Adjuster
Knob should be set at 4. If higher ash fuels are used
the setting should be increased to 5 or 6. Also higher
settings are required if you would like to get the
maximum heat output from the stove. At the maximum
burn rate (with the temperature dial on 7/90° and the
feed adjuster at 6) there should be 1" or more of ash on
the front of the burn pot. If there is less than 1" of ash,
turn the feed adjuster knob down to a lower setting.
P43 AUTOMATIC IGNITION/OPERATION
Shut down Procedure
The best way to shut down the stove is to simply let it
run out of pellets. The stove will shut down automatically.
Alternatively, you can turn the Mode Selector to “off”.
This will cause the fire to gradually die down and go out.
The fire will not go out immediately and may take more
than an hour to fully shut down.
If the stove is left to run out of fuel, you may get a 6
blink status light. If this happens simply reset the control
board by turning the mode selector to OFF and back
ON.
The setting above will produce continuous maximum heat
output with the distribution blower at full speed.
Stove temperature Mode
The setting above will produce continuous medium heat
output with the distribution blower at low speed.
