E. Fire Characteristics
A properly adjusted fi re with the heat output control switch
set on “high” has a short active fl ame pattern that extends
out of the fi repot approximately 4 inches (102mm). If the fi re
has tall fl ames with black tails and seems somewhat lazy,
the feed rate will need to be reduced. This is done by sliding
the fuel adjustment control rod down, which will reduce the
feed. If the fi re is not 4 inches (102mm) tall, slide the fuel
adjustment control rod up to increase the feed. A medium
and low setting will give a shorter fl ame. The fl ame will rise
and fall somewhat. This is normal.
Red Call Light is
located on top of
Junction Box behind
the Control Box.

F. Iginition Cycles
1. During each ignition cycle, it is normal to see some
smoke in the fi rebox. The smoke will stop once the
fi re starts.
2. The convection blower will automatically turn on after
your appliance has reached the set temperature on
the “high” setting. This blower transfers heat from your
appliance into the room, and will continue to run after
the thermostat has stopped calling for heat until the
appliance has cooled down.
3. Occasionally the appliance may run out of fuel and shut
itself down. When this happens, the red call light will
be on.
Figure 24.1
. To restart it, fi ll the hopper and
press the reset button.
(See Figure 23.1, page 23)
.
When you press the reset button the red call light will
go out. Release the button and the light will come back
on. You should see a fi re shortly. If not, follow the
instructions on
page 23
, of “Starting Your First Fire”.
Figure 24.2
The feed adjustment control rod is factory set, and should
be adequate for most fuels. However, if the flame height is
too high or too low, you will need to adjust the feed rate. Wait
until the appliance has been burning for 15 minutes before
making your adjustments and allow 15 minutes for feed
adjustment to take effect.
G. Feed Rate Adjustment Instructions
1. Loosen the set screw 1/4 to 1/2 turn during set-up
of appliance. This will allow movement of the feed
adjustment control rod. Do not re-tighten set screw.
Figure 24.2.
2. Loosen the thumb screw.
3. Adjust the feed adjustment control rod upward towards
the "+" symbol to increase the feed rate and fl ame height
or down towards the "-" symbol, to decrease the feed rate
and fl ame height.
4. Re-tighten the thumb screw.
