I. Fire Characteristics
A properly adjusted fire with the heat output control switch set
on “high” has a short active flame pattern that extends out of
the firepot approximately 4 to 8 inches (102 to 203mm).
If the fire has tall flames with black tails and seems somewhat
lazy, the feed rate will need to be reduced. This is done by
sliding the fuel adjustment control rod down, which will reduce
the feed.
Figure 10.3
.
If the fire is not 4 to 8 inches (102 to 203mm) tall, slide the
fuel adjustment control rod up to increase the feed. A medium
and low setting will give a shorter flame. The flame will rise
and fall somewhat. This is normal.
Figure 10.2
T
he feed adjustment control rod is factory set, and should
be adequate for most fuels. However, if the flame height is
too high or too low, you will need to adjust the feed rate. Wait
until the appliance has been burning for 15 minutes before
making your adju
stments and a
llow 15 minutes for feed
adjustment to take effect.
J. Feed Rate Adjustment Instructions
1. Loosen the thumb screw.
2. Pull the feed adjustment control rod up to increase the
feed rate and flame height or push down to decrease the
feed rate and flame height.
3. Re-tighten the thumb screw.

H. Starting Your First Fire
1. A thermostat is required for proper operation of this
appliance. If you have to adjust the feed rate after
you have started the fire, the pellets in the hopper will
need to be removed so start out with filling the hopper
approximately 1/4 full at this time. Set the thermostat to
its lowest setting and plug the power cord into nearby
outlet.
2. The exhaust blower will stay on for approximately 18
minutes even though the thermostat is not calling for
heat. This is normal.
3. L
ocate the heat output control switch mounted on the back
of the appliance in the upper left corner.
Figure 9.1 on
page 9.
Turn it to the “high” setting by pushing the top of the
control switch in and then adjust the thermostat to its
highest setting.
4. Look through the hole in the left lower side panel and
you will see the red call light on the control box will be
on.
Figure 10.1
. This indicates the thermostat is calling
for heat.
5.
The fuel feed system and the igniter should now be on.
6. For your first fire it will be necessary to
press the reset
button once approximately 2 minutes after start up and
again in 5 minutes. This will fill the feed system and
allow the appliance to begin dropping pellets. O
r you
can put a handful of pellets in the firepot to speed up the
process. The appliance will continue to run as long as
the thermostat is calling for heat.
7. Once the appliance has ignited, let it burn for approximately
15 minutes, then set the thermostat to the desired room
temperature. Adjust the heat output control switch to the
desired setting.
