BURNER LIGHTING
NOTE: If the burner has been used, all leftover ash and clinkers must be
thoroughly removed from the burner pot before following the lighting instructions.
**IMPORTANT**
On the initial lighting of the furnace, add approximately 2-3 cups of fuel to the hopper. As the fuel
feeds into the auger, add only small amounts until the fire is established and the feeding system is
working properly. This procedure should be followed at the beginning of each heating season. This
procedure should also be followed if the hopper is allowed to empty and the resulting sticky smoke film
coats the hopper feed auger. Powdered graphite may also be added to lubricate the auger, but is not
recommended with the clear acrylic feed tube.
CAUTION
Biomass stalks, excess cob, fines, dirt, etc. may cause the augers to plug resulting in excessive wear
and possible auger motor failure. Burning treated seed corn is not recommended because of excessive
clinker build up and problems with fire extinguishing, caused by the treatment used on the corn.
Never add fuel to the burn pot directly while a fire is establish. This can cause the generation of
excessive smoke and a potentially hazardous condition.
1. Add wood pellets, dry (15% or below moisture), clean USDA #3 or better corn, or other
approved biomass fuel to the holding bin (see FUEL REQUIREMENTS on page 26). (See
IMPORTANT and CAUTION above)
2. Turn on the electric power to the furnace.
3. Turn thermostat to highest setting.
4. Fill burner pot with biomass fuel.
5. Do Not Use Chemicals or Fluids to Start The Fire. Apply gelled fire starter approved for use in
biomass appliances to the top of the fuel and close the door.
NOTE: Kindling wood and paper may be used as a substitute.
6. Once the fire is established, depress toggle switch to start position. This will activate the
combustion blower and furnace auger motor. The bin auger motor should be activated after
approximately three to five minutes. (Fuel will not begin to auger until the furnace has reached
operating temperature and the bin auger motor is activated.)
7. Turn switch to “ON” position.
8. Set wall thermostat to temperature desired.
9. It may be necessary to add kindling wood a couple of times before the fuel is completely
ignited.
