Part I - Safety Warnings
CAREFULLY READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS ENTIRE MANUAL
PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING THIS PELLET BURNING HEATER. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY OR EVEN DEATH.
DO NOT USE ANY MAKESHIFT COMPROMISES DURING INSTALLATION. ALWAYS KEEP A FIRE
EXTINGUISHER NEARBY.
1. This appliance must be installed according to current national and local building codes.
2. Contact your local building or fire official to determine if a permit i s n e e d e d and f o r any information on
installation restrictions and inspection requirements for your area.
3. To prevent the possibility of a fire, ensure that the appliance is properly installed by adhering to the installation
instructions. Ask your dealer to assist you in obtaining information with regards to your local building codes and
installation restrictions.
4. The stove
’s exhaust system works with negative combustion chamber pressure and a slightly positive chimney
pressure. It is very important to ensure that the exhaust system be sealed and airtight.
5. Do not operate unit with hopper open. Lit must be shut and tightly secured.
6. Do not burn with insufficient combustion air. A periodic check is recommended to ensure proper combustion air is
getting to the combustion chamber. Setting the proper combustion air is achieved by adjusting the slider damper
located on the lower left side of the stove. The adjustment range of the damper must not be altered for any
reason.
See also “Adjusting Airflow” later in this manual.
7. The ash pan and viewing door must be locked securely for proper and safe operation of the pellet stove. Do not
operate with front cover open. This will prevent smoke, fire, and fly ash from escaping. Maintain gaskets and
seals in good condition.
8. This appliance will not operate using natural draft or without power for the blowers.
9. Do not abuse the glass by striking or slamming the door. Do not attempt to operate the unit with broken glass. Do
not attempt to clean the glass while unit is hot. To clean the glass, follow the instructions in the maintenance
section.
10. Do not operate your stove if you smell smoke coming from it. Shut off the stove per the operation instructions
found later in this manual, monitor the stove, call your dealer and standby with a fire extinguisher. DO NOT
UNPLUG THE UNIT.
11. Do not keep any combustible or explosive items around the stove when it is operating.
12. Repair and servicing of your stove may only be done by a qualified technician. Disconnect the power cord before
performing any maintenance or repair only after properly shutting down stove and allowing to cool.
13. Turning the stove to "off" does not disconnect all power from the unit.
14. The stove will not operate during a power outage. If this occurs, check for smoke spillage and open a house
window if necessary. When power returns, turn the stove back on.
15. Notify your insurance company of your new stove.
16. Do not touch the surface of the unit while the stove is operating. The high temperature of the stove glass door
and venting pipe will cause burns.
17. The use of smoke and carbon monoxide detectors is highly recommended with any hearth product, including this
unit. If possible, install the smoke detector in a hallway adjacent to the room (to reduce the possibility of
occasional false activation from the heat produced by the stove). If your local codes require the smoke detectors
to be in the same room, you must follow those requirements. Check with your local building department for
requirements in your area.
18. The exhaust venting must be cleaned bi-annually or after every two tons of pellets. Venting pipe and air input
pipe must remain unblocked. Perform regular maintenance checks. (See maintenance section.)
If you have any questions with regard to your stove or any information in this manual, contact your dealer.
