PRE-START-UP CHECK
Remove burn pot, making sure it is clean and none of the
air holes are plugged. Clean the firebox, and then reinstall
burn pot. Clean door glass if necessary (a dry cloth or
paper towel is usually sufficient). Never use abrasive
cleaners on the glass or door. Check fuel in the hopper,
and refill if necessary.
BUILDING A FIRE
Never use a grate or other means of supporting the fuel.
Use only the burn pot supplied with this heater. Hopper
lid must be closed in order for the unit to feed pellets.
During the start-up period:
• Make sure the burn pot is free of pellets.
• DO NOT open the viewing door.
• DO NOT add pellets to the burn pot by hand.
NOTE: During the first few fires, your stove will emit an
odor as the high-temperature paint cures or becomes
seasoned to the metal. Maintaining smaller fires will
minimize this. Avoid placing items on the stovetop during
this period because the paint could be affected. Attempts
to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design
specifications can result in permanent damage to the
heater.
OPTIMAL OPERATION
This pellet stove has been certified by the US EPA to
meet strict 2020 guidelines. To Insure this unit produces
the optimal minimal emissions, it is critical to follow
the following guidelines. To achieve a “high burn” your
stove should be set on setting 5 with the damper open.
To achieve a “medium burn” your stove should be set
on setting 3 with the damper 50% open. To achieve a
“low burn” your stove should be set on setting 1with the
damper closed. If the door is opened while the stove is
in operation it must be closed within 30 seconds or the
stove will shut down. If the stove shuts down push the
“On/Off” button to re-start your stove. The stove will
have to fully shut down and turn off before you will be
able to restart the stove.

OPENING DOOR
CAUTION:
• DO NOT OPERATE YOUR STOVE WITH THE
VIEWING DOOR OPEN. THE AUGER WILL NOT
FEED PELLETS UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES
AND A SAFETY CONCERN MAY ARISE FROM
SPARKS OR FUMES ENTERING THE ROOM.
• THE DOOR MUST BE CLOSED AND SEALED
DURING OPERATION.
If the door is opened while the stove is in operation it
must be closed within 30 seconds or the stove will shut
down. If the stove shuts down push the “On/Off” button
to re-start your stove. The stove will have to fully shut
down and turn off before you will be able to restart the
stove.
ROOM AIR FAN
When starting your stove the Room Air Fan will not
come on until the stove’s heat exchanger warms up. This
usually takes about 10 minutes from start-up.
IF STOVE RUNS OUT OF PELLETS
The fire goes out and the auger motor and blowers will
run until the stove cools. This will take 30 minutes or
longer depending on the heat remaining in the appliance.
After the stove components stop running all lights on
the display will go out and the two digit display will begin
flashing “E3”
