OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (DC Models) 

NOTE:  Each time the stove is started, the firepot should be checked for debris and clear air holes.  Some fuels will 
cause the firepot to build up more frequently making it necessary to stir and clean the firepot more often.  Do not allow 
ash to build up underneath the firepot.  Take the firepot out at least weekly to vacuum out any ash in the bottom. 
PRIMING THE AUGER: 
Place Thermostat switch in manual position or turn up wall thermostat to call for heat.  Never leave the stove 
unattended during priming or start-up.  

Priming the auger is required when the unit is new or when the hopper has 

completely run out of fuel.  

Be sure to vacuum out the hopper every 4-6 bags of fuel.

 

 
TO PRIME THE AUGER: 

A.

 

Load the hopper with Fuel. 

B.

 

Push the “On/Off” switch to the “On” position.  Wait about 1 minute. 

C.

 

Press the “auger” switch button until fuel begins to drop into the firepot. 
When fuel begins to drop regularly, the auger is primed. 

 

STARTING YOUR STOVE: Place Thermostat switch in manual position or 
turn up wall thermostat to call for heat. 
Note:  The viewing door, ash pan door and hopper door must be closed  
and/or latched during operation. 
 

A.

 

Turn the air intake butterfly damper to approximately ¼ open.  (located on back of unit) 

B.

 

If using a DC battery, make sure that all connections are secure. If the unit  
will not start, the battery (not supplied with unit) may need charging. 

C.

 

Clean out the firepot; make sure nothing is plugging the igniter.  

D.

 

Press the “On/Off” switch to the “On” position. 
This stove is equipped with a self igniter (optional) that will start Wood Pellets 
without the use of fire starter.  

NOTE: The igniter will not operate if the unit 

is on DC battery power. You must manually light the unit. 

Fuel will drop into the firepot and ignite in 3-5 minutes.  The igniter will 
continue to run for approximately 10 min until a fire is established.  If a fire is 
not started within the minimum cycle time, the auger will stop feeding and you 
will need to start the cycle over again. 
 
Pushing and holding the auger switch allows you to prime the auger and add  
fuel to the firepot automatically. This can be done app. 1 minute after pushing  
the on/off start button.  The unit starts automatically on the low heat setting. 
When you have started the unit (app. 10 minutes) you can press and hold the 
heat level button and it will advance one heat setting.  Press the button until you 
have reached the desired heat setting.  It is recommended to burn the unit on the 
number 3 heat setting for the first 30-45 minutes.

 

 

The convection blower speed varies directly with the feed rate.  The “High Fan” switch will override the variable fan 
function (# 1 heat setting only). Setting 2-5 is full fan speed. 

 

NOTE:  In case of a power outage or interruption lasting longer than 5 seconds, the “Start” button must be pushed to 
re-engage the auger.  The self-igniter will not operate if the unit is on battery power.  Manually light the unit. 

 

IMPORTANT:  The circuit board will not function properly if the outlet is not a constant 115 volt, 60 cycle power 
source.  The outlet must be grounded properly and have the correct polarity.  A polarity and ground tester can be 
picked up at any hardware store to assure proper operation.  If you are using a power generator, solar power or wind 
generation make sure that you have a constant correct power source. 
 
The unit’s electrical warranty would become void if a constant power source is not available.  Also, make sure that a 
proper surge protector is between the unit and the power source.  The circuit board will not be warranted if there is not 
a surge protector installed to the unit. 
 
It is strongly recommended that you unplug the power source during times when the unit is not being operated to 
protect the unit from power surges, power spikes and drops in power.  It is very common for a circuit board to work 
when the unit is shut off in the spring and then won’t work in the fall.  Unplugging the unit will prevent this from 
happening.
