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 Limit to #4, Figure 4.6 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 Limit # 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. Figure
4.7. If the ash line is larger than 1", turn the Feed Limit 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.
NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN
FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID, OR
SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR 'FRESHEN UP' A FIRE
IN THIS HEATER. KEEP ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL
AWAY FROM THE HEATER, WHILE IN USE.
BURNING GARBAGE, USE OF IMPROPER FUELS,
FIRE STARTERS OR ALTERING THE STOVE FOR
HIGHER HEAT OUTPUT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO
THE STOVE AND COULD RESULT IN A HOUSE FIRE.
USE ONLY APPROVED FUELS AND FOLLOW ONLY
THESE OPERATION GUIDELINES.
