P68 Pellet Stove
autoMatic ignition/oPeration
The setting above will produce continuous maximum heat output
with the distribution blower at full speed.
Stove temperature Mode
The setting above will produce continuous medium heat output
with the distribution blower at low speed.
Shut down Procedure
The best way to shut down the stove is simply
let it run out of pellets. The stove will shut down
automatically. Alternatively, you can turn the Mode
Selector to “off”. This will cause the fire to gradually
die down and go out. The fire will not go out
immediately and may take more than an hour to fully
shut down.
If the stove is left to run out of fuel, you may get a
6 blink status light. If this happens simply reset the
control board by turning the mode selector to OFF
and back ON.
Stove temperature Mode
In the Stove Temperature Mode and with the igniter
toggle switch in the Auto position, the stove will light
automatically and can be adjusted to the desired setting
using the same temperature control dial as is used in
the Room Temperature Mode. The heat output and fuel
consumption will remain constant regardless of room
temperature. The settings from 1 to 7 on the inner ring
of the dial provide for relative heat output settings with
1 being low and 7 being the maximum.
In Stove Temperature Mode, the stove will not
automatically shut off unless the stove runs out of fuel
or is turned off.
never
pull the plug to shut down the stove. This will
stop the combustion blower and smoke will escape
through window and door gaskets.
When the igniter toggle switch is set to manual in
this mode, the distribution blower will not turn on with
a temperature dial setting from 1 to 5. The advantage
of this mode is to allow the operator to have a large
viewing fire without blowing extra heat into the room.
During manual operation, with the temperature dial set
at #4 or less, the distribution fan will not operate. A #4
on the temperature dial and a #5 on the feed adjuster is
approximately 80% output. It is not necessary to operate
the distribution blower below this point. Therefore, the
control allows a higher burn rate ( a larger viewing fire)
without an excess of hot air blowing into the room.
An example of when to use the Manual Stove
Temperature Mode is if you want to watch a large fire
and the room is already up to temperature. The Stove
Temperature Mode allows you to have a larger fire and
a lower sound level, without the distribution blower.
note: during the use of this mode, if you
keep increasing the temperature dial setting to
increase the fire size, the distribution blower will
automatically come on when the eSP temperature
reaches 350o F, or 81% output.
Feed adjuster Knob
For most premium grade pellet fuels the Feed
Adjuster Knob should be set at 4. If higher ash fuels
are used the setting should be increased to 5 or 6. Also
higher settings are required if you would like to get the
maximum heat output from the stove. At the maximum
burn rate (with the temperature dial on 7/90° and the
feed adjuster at 6) there should be 1" or more of ash
on the front of the burn pot. If there is less than 1" of
ash, turn the feed adjuster knob down to a lower setting.
