D. 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 fi re protection, venting and
thermostat installation instructions.
2. Double check that the ash drawer and fi rebox are empty!
3. Close the front door.
IMPORTANT DETAIL: The tip of the thermocouple must be
in contact with the inside end of the thermocouple cover
or missed ignitions can occur.
E. Starting Your First Fire
1. A thermostat is required for proper operation of this
appliance, except for corn. At this time, fi ll the hopper with
pellets, set the thermostat to its lowest setting. 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. Locate the heat output control switch mounted on the back
of the appliance in the upper right corner.
Figure 24.1.
Turn it to the “high” setting by pushing the top of the control
switch in and then adjust the thermostat to its highest setting.
Remove the right side panel and the red call light located
to the left of the control box will be on.
Figure 24.2
. This
indicates the thermostat is calling for heat.
4. The fuel feed system and the igniter should now be on.
5. For your fi rst fi re it will be necessary to press the reset
button once approximately 2 minutes after start up and
again in 5 minutes. This will fi ll the feed system and allow
the appliance to begin dropping pellets. The appliance will
continue to run as long as the thermostat is calling for heat.
6. 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.
NOTE:
We recommend the use of a 50-50 blend of corn and
wood pellets. The only change in operation is that the feed rate
may require a slight adjustment. If the appliance is running all
of the time, 100% corn will work after the fi re has been started
using wood pellets.

C. 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 satisfi ed, the red call light will go
off and the appliance will shut down.
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. The appliance will turn on and off as the
thermostat demands. When the thermostat calls for heat,
the appliance will start up at the burn rate for which it is
set. If the appliance is set at one of the lower settings,
it will run quieter but take 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.
