Automatic Start Up
1. Fines are small pieces of broken pellets (sawdust). Fines do
not ow easily and often build up on the hopper funnel bottom
angles. These nes can be pushed into the feeder opening and
then ll the hopper with pellets. As the system works, they will
be burned.
2. The "TEST" cycle will operate the feed motor for exactly one
minute. Turning to "TEST" again and again may load too much
fuel into the burn pot causing excessive smoke on start-up.
3. The rebox low pressure switch will not allow the auger motor
or the igniter element to operate if the view door is open.
4. Adjust Feed Rate. If this is your rst re or you are trying different
pellets, set the feed adjuster to #4, Fig. 1. This is a conservative
number and will probably need to be increased. After you know
a feed rate setting that works well, use that setting. Remember,
if your feed rate is too high you may waste fuel.
5. This is usually a weekly maintenance procedure. Cleaning the
burn pot with the scraper with a small amount of new fuel in the
bottom is not a problem. First, scrape the ashes off the front of
the burn pot into the ash pan. Then scrape the holed surface
downward into the burn pot. When the stove feeds, these
scrapings will be pushed out by the feeder.
6. The ash pan can hold the ashes from approximately 1 ton of
premium fuel. This means the ashes will only need to be emptied
a few times a year.
7. Setting the feed adjuster # for maximum burn: With the unit
burning in "AUTO", turn to "Stove Mode" and put the fan on
"H". Set the Temperature Dial to #7. Allow the unit to burn for
about 30 minutes and check ash on front of burn pot. Fig. 2.
If the ash line is larger than 1", turn the feed adjuster from #4
to #5. Allow another 30 minutes of burn time and check again.
If, at #6 setting, a 1" or less ash bed is not obtainable, it is not
a problem. The 1" ash bed is only at maximum burn rate and
during normal operation, the ash bed will be larger.
