FUEL SELECTION
Proper fuel selection is critical. Your stove requires 1/4"
diameter wood pellets. The pellets must be specifically
manufactured for use pellet heaters. Use of fuel non-
conforming fuel will cause the stove to operate erratically.
Additionally, a low ash content of below 1% is will reduce
your cleaning and maintenance time. Store pellets in a
clean dry area. Do not use pellets that have been damp or
have a moisture level above 5%.
The quality of pellet fuel varies from brand to brand. This
will affect the efficiency of your heater. We suggest that
you try several brands until you find one that gives you a
clean efficient burn. Poor quality pellets will burn rich with
black soot and ash will accumulate quickly. Quality pellets
will burn clean and ash build up will be minimal.
AUTOLITE OPERATION
Your EASYFIRE Pellet Stove is equipped with the
Autolite Automatic ignition and operating system.
The AutoLite system is integrated into the stove to allow
for automatic start up using a heating element located in
the burn pot. This element starts the initial fire required to
burn the wood pellets. The system operates on 120VAC
power supplied through a separate fuse and runs for five
minutes during the initial stove start up. After the five minute
period the AutoLite system is deactivated and the stove
operates based on the EasyFire digital control system
requirements. If the house AC power should quit, the
AutoLite system will not be available however, with the
optional battery attached the stove can be manually lit and
operate on battery power for several days (depending on
battery size).
