F. Before Your First Fire
1. First, make sure your appliance has been properly
installed and that all safety requirements have been
met. Pay particular attention to the fire protection,
venting and thermostat installation instructions.
2. Double check that the ash drawer and firebox
are empty!
3. Check that cleaning rod is in the fully closed position.
4. Close and latch the door.
Moisture
Always burn dry fuel. Burning fuel with high moisture
content takes heat from the fuel and tends to cool the
appliance, robbing heat from your home. Damp pellet fuel
can clog the feed system.
Size
• Pellets are either 1/4 inch or 5/16 inch (6-8mm)
in diameter
• Length should be no more that 1-1/2 inches (38mm)
• Pellet lengths can vary from lot to lot from the
same manufacturer
• Due to length variations, the flame height (feed
rate) may need adjusting occasionally. See page 10
for instructions.
Performance
• Higher ash content requires the ash drawer to be
emptied more frequently
• Hardwoods require more air to burn properly
• Set wall control to “Utility Pellet” if the fire pot and ash
pan are filling quickly. This will cause the auto-clean
system to empty the fire pot more often.
• Premium wood pellets produce the highest heat output.
• Burning pellets longer than 1-1/2 inches (38mm)
can cause an inconsistent fuel feed rate and/or
missed ignitions.
We recommend that you buy fuel in multi-ton lots
whenever possible. However, we do recommend trying
various brands before purchasing multi-ton lots to ensure
your satisfaction.
Changing to Different Fuel Type
• Empty the hopper of the previous fuel
• Thoroughly vacuum hopper before filling with the
new fuel
• Select the appropriate setting on the FUEL
SELECTION screen on the thermostat wall control
The burn rate, BTU content and heat output will all vary
depending on the fuel selected.
Storage
• Wood pellets should be left in their original sealed bag
until using to prevent moisture absorption.
• This will also prevent rodents from becoming
a problem.
• Do not store any pellet fuel within the clearance
requirements or in an area that would hinder routine
cleaning and maintenance.
Tested and approved for wood pellets. Burning of any
other type of fuel voids your warranty.
CAUTION
E. General Operating Information
1. Thermostat Calls For Heat
The appliance is like most modern furnaces; when
the thermostat calls for heat, your appliance will
automatically light and deliver heat. When the room
is up to temperature and the thermostat is satisfied,
the red call light will shut off and the appliance will
shut down. The red call light is located behind the left
access panel.
2. Heat Output Controls
This appliance is equipped with a heat output control
switch that has three settings or burn rates; low,
medium and high (Figure 10.1) . The appliance will
turn on and off as the thermostat demands. When the
thermostat calls for heat, the appliance will always start
up on High. After burning approximately 4 minutes,
the appliance will then burn at the rate at which it was
originally set. If the appliance is set at one of the lower
settings, it will run quieter but takes longer to heat
up an area than if it were set at a higher burn rate.
Regardless of the burn rate, when the area is warm
enough to satisfy the thermostat, the appliance will
shut off.
HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN,
CLOTHING AND FURNITURE AWAY. CONTACT MAY
CAUSE SKIN BURNS.
CAUTION
CAUTION
Tip of thermocouple must be in contact with the inside
end of the thermocouple cover. Missed ignitions
can occur.
