OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Check and Fill the Fuel Hopper with Pellets: 

This Pellet Stove is available as a freestanding unit or as a 

fi

 replace insert.  There is a different method for 

fi

 lling the hopper for each type 

of heater:

 To check and 

fi

 ll the hopper of the freestanding heater, simply lift the hopper door, visually check the hopper and add pellets  

 

when needed.

 To check and 

fi

 ll the hopper of the insert heater, pull hopper lid forward, visually check the hopper and    

 

 

 

add pellets when needed.

CAUTION: DO NOT OVERFILL THE PELLET FUEL HOPPER.  AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION, AUGER WILL NOT OPERATE AT ANY 
TIME WHEN FUEL HOPPER DOOR IS OPEN. 

Pre-start Check-up:

Make sure that all parts of the pellet stove room heater are cool before proceeding.  Remove the burn pot and clean out any ash debris. 
Be sure to re-install the burn pot in the correct position (see page 8).
The blowers and automatic fuel supply are controlled from a panel located on the right hand side of the stove.

Note:  Your Pellet Stove may omit an odor as oil residue from the manufacturing process burns off and the high temperature 
paint cures. You can minimize this effect by running a smaller 

fi

 re for the 

fi

 rst few hours of operation.  Avoid placing any items 

on the stove top during this period as the stove’s paint could be permanently damaged.

Lighting Instructions:
ATTENTION: Viewing door must be securely latched to ensure proper stove operation.  Push door closed and engage latches 
in locking holes on door.  Press latch handles toward stove body until fully engaged; you will feel the latch engage and hear an 
audible click. If door is loose adjust tension control nuts on latches until both latches hold door secure and tight.

When 

fi

 rst operating your Pellet Stove, depress the MODE button until the LED indicator above MANUAL lights up. This will engage 

MANUAL mode and provide you with full control of the heater’s control board functions and allow you to familiarize yourself with how the 
heater works.  The heat level for T-STAT mode can only be set when the control is in the Manual Mode.

Starting Up The Pellet Stove Room Heater:

Whenever operating the pellet stove for 

fi

 rst time, or if the stove runs out of pellets, it is necessary to prime the auger with pellet fuel.  To 

do this, Press and Hold the AUGER Button for Approximately 3 Seconds until the AUGER LED illuminates.  This procedure will prime the 
auger and then automatically initiate the normal ignition cycle.  

CAUTION: Do not use this procedure for normal startup.  To do so would cause excessive fuel build-up in the burn pot.

For normal startup with pellet fuel in the auger, press and release the On/Off button. The LED indicator light above the On/Off button will 
alternately 

fl

 ash green then red to indicate that the start-up cycle has begun. The light above the Auger button will 

fl

 ash intermittently to 

indicate the activation of the auger feeding the pellets into the burn pot.  The electric igniter will also be activated at this time.  The igniter 
takes a few minutes to come up to temperature in order to ignite the pellets in the burn pot.  It will normally take between 4 minutes and 
8 minutes for pellets to ignite. 

NOTE: If pellets do not ignite within 12 minutes the heater will shut down, requiring you to turn on the heater and repeat the 
start-up process.

When the pellets have ignited and 

fl

 ame has been established, the start-up cycle will end; this procedure takes between 8 and 12 minutes.  

If the control is set to Manual Mode, it will now default to the heat level setting the last shutdown time.  If the control is set to T-STAT Mode, 
the heat output will coincide to the commands from the thermostat.

Auger: 

As explained in the starting up step, this button is only served to start up the pellet stove in lieu of the on/off button when there are no 
pellets in the auger.

Circulation Air Flow:

Your pellet stove room heater features circulation air 

fl

 ow which will change in accordance with the heat setting.  Circulation air 

fl

 ow will be 

at its maximum setting when the heat setting is also at maximum and subsequently will be at its minimum setting when the heat setting is 
at minimum. If you desire to operate the circulation fan at its maximum setting regardless of heat setting, you may do so by pressing the 
FAN button.

Auger Trim:

When operating at Heat Level 1, if the 

fl

 ame goes out or the heat output is too high on the minimum heat level setting, use the AUGER 

TRIM button to make adjustments. See the AUGER TRIM button description on page 8.

Shutting Down Your Pellet Stove Room Heater: 

Turn off the heater by pressing the On/Off button. The stove will enter the shutdown cycle and the pellets will stop feeding into the burn pot 
to allow the fuel in the burn pot to be combusted and consumed. During this period, the exhaust blower and circulation fan will continue to 
operate until the 

fl

 ames are out and the heater has cooled down.  When the heater has cooled down to its pre-set level, it will shut down 

completely.

CAUTION: NEVER TURN OFF THE HEATER BY UNPLUGGING OR DISCONNECTING ITS ELECTRICAL POWER SOURCE. DOING SO 
WILL CAUSE THE HEATER TO SKIP THE PROPER SHUTDOWN CYCLE, CAUSING THE HEATER TO OVERHEAT AND THE POSSIBLE 
RELEASE OF SMOKE INTO THE HOUSE.
