Operating Instructions

A. Fire Safety

To provide reasonable fi re safety, the following should be 
given serious consideration:

•  Install at least one smoke detector on each fl oor of your 

home.

•  Install at least one carbon monoxide detector on each fl oor 

of your home.

•  Locate smoke detector away from the heating appliance 

and close to the sleeping areas.  

•  Follow the smoke detector manufacturer’s placement and 

installation instructions and maintain regularly.  

•  Follow the carbon monoxide manufacturer’s placement and 

installation instructions and maintain regularly.  

•  Conveniently locate a Class A fi re extinguisher to contend 

with small fi res.

•  In the event of a hopper fi re:

 

•  Evacuate the house immediately.
• Notify 

fi re department.

B.  Non-Combustible Materials

Material which will not ignite and burn, composed of any 
combination of the following: 
     - Steel 

     - Plaster 

- Glass            - Tile

     - Brick 

     - Iron 

- Slate            - Concrete

Materials reported as passing 

ASTM E 136, Standard 

Test Method for Behavior of Metals, in a Vertical Tube 
Furnace of 750° C. 

C. Combustible Materials

Material made of/or surfaced with any of the following 
materials: 
     - Compressed Paper          - Wood           - Plywood/OSB
     - Sheet Rock (drywall)       - Plastic          - Plant Fibers
Any material that can ignite and burn: fl ame proofed or not, 
plastered or un-plastered. 

D.  Fuel Material and Fuel Storage

Pellet fuel quality can greatly fl uctuate.  We recommend that 
you buy fuel in multi-ton lots whenever possible.  However, 
we do recommend trying various brands before purchasing 
multi-ton lots to ensure your satisfaction. 

Fuel Material

•  Made from sawdust or wood by-products
•  Depending on the source material it may have a high or 
low ash content.

Higher Ash Content Material 
•  Hardwoods with a high mineral content
•  Fuel that contains bark
•  Standard grade pellets or high ash pellets

Lower Ash Content Material

• Most 

softwoods

•  Fuels with low mineral content
•    Most premium grade pellets 

Corn

• 

A 2:1 mix of pellets to corn is approved, but may re-
quire the fi repot to be cleaned more frequently.

• 

When using a pellet/corn fuel mixture, it is recommend-
ed that the trim adjustment is set to -4 (see pg. 12)

• 

Corn must be free of debris. Never burn corn straight 
from the fi eld. It will clog the auger mechanism.

• 

Corn with excessive grain dust must be screened by 
sifting with 3/16 (4.76mm) inch mesh screening

• 

Do not use corn that contains additives such as oils or 
means or has been chemically treated with pesticides. 
It will void your warranty and destroy the exhaust sys-
tem. 

Clinkers

Minerals and other non-combustible materials such as sand 
will turn into a hard, glass-like substance called a clinker when 
heated in the fi repot. 

Trees from different areas will vary in mineral content.  That 
is why some fuels produce more clinkers than others. 

Moisture

Always burn dry fuel.  Burning fuel with high moisture content 
takes heat from the fuel and tends to cool the appliance, 
robbing heat from your home.  Damp pellet fuel can clog the 
feed system.

Size

•  Pellets are either 1/4 inch or 5/16 inch (6-8mm) in diameter
•  Length should be no more that 1-1/2 inches (38mm)
•  Pellet lengths can vary from lot to lot from the same 

manufacturer

•  Due to length variations, the feed rate may need adjusting 

occasionally

Performance

•  Higher ash content requires the fi repot and the ash drawer 

to be emptied more frequently

•  Hardwoods require more air to burn properly
•  Premium wood pellets produce the highest heat output

Fire Risk.

•  Do not operate appliance before reading and 

understanding operating instructions.

•  Failure to operate appliance properly may cause 

a house fi re.
