Testing Operation:

Turn the Feed Adjuster to "Test" mode, (fig. 13.) This will cause all motors to run 100% for 2 minutes. The lights on the control panel will be lit for each motor. If you leave it on "test" the blowers will cycle as an audible reminder.

Starting Fire:

1.Fill the hopper with dry coal. NOTE: Remove all coal from hopper ledge. (fig 17)

2.Fill burn-grate area from firebrick to front of grate with about one inch of (DRY) coal.

3.Plug into 120 volt AC outlet and turn control to "OFF". Turning to "OFF" and then back to the

desired mode resets the control.

4.Turn Feed Adjuster to the # 3 position, fig. 14.

5.Make a valley in the coal at the top of the burn grate. Fill valley with fire starting material (coal

starter, crushed charcoal, wood pellets). 6.Turn Mode Selector to Room Temp or Stove

Temp as desired.

7.Turn the Temp Dial to the desired setting.

8.Light the fire and make sure that all doors and the hopper lid are closed. As the ESP senses the correct temperature, the Feed Motor will start.

Shutdown Procedure:

2To kill the fire or stop burning the stove, turn the Mode Selector knob to the "OFF" position. This will stop the feeder and the fire will burn out. When the stove cools to about 95 degrees Fahrenheit, all motors will stop. The unit can then be unplugged.

NOTE: It is always best to let the stove run out of coal to shut it down rather than use the "OFF" position. This is because there is no moisture left in the hopper from the coal. Always run the stove out of coal to shut it down when the heating season is over or if the stove will not be used for several days.

Restarting Fire After Shutdown:

All ash and partially burned coal must be cleaned out from behind grates down under firebrick until fresh coal is seen. Follow "Starting Fire" procedure above.
