B. 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 shut off and the appliance will shut down. The red call light is located behind the left access panel.

C. 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 pan and fi rebox are empty!

3.Check the position of the thermocouple, located above the fi repot, and make sure that it protrudes approximately 3/4 inch (19mm) into the fi repot.

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 always start up on High. After burning approximately 4 minutes, the appliance will then burn at the rate at which it was originally set. If the appliance is set at one of the lower settings, it will run quieter but takes 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.

WARNING

Fire Hazard.

Keep combustible materials, gasoline and other fl ammable vapors and liquids clear of appliance.

•Do NOT store fl ammable materials in the appliance’s vicinity.

•DO NOT USE GASOLINE, LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR “FRESHEN UP” A FIRE IN THIS HEATER.

•DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA OR ENGINE OIL.

•DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OF FLUIDS TO START THE FIRE.

•Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it is in use.

•Combustible materials may ignite.

4. Close the front door.

CAUTION

Tip of thermocouple must be in contact with the inside end of the thermocouple cover.

Missed ignitions can occur.

D. 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 behind the right face on the lower right side of the fi rebox. Set to the HIGH setting and then adjust the thermostat to its highest setting. The red call light will be on which is located on the top of the junction box behind the right cast side. This indicates the thermostat is calling for heat. Figure 25.1.

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 a minute until pellets start to drop into the fi repot, then press button 1 more time. 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.

E. Fire Characteristics

A properly adjusted fi re with the heat output control switch set on “HIGH” has a short active fl ame pattern that extends out of the fi repot approximately 4 inches (102mm). If the fi re has tall fl ames with black tails and seems somewhat lazy, the feed rate will need to be reduced. If the fi re is not 4 inches (102mm) tall, increase the feed rate. A medium and low setting will give a shorter fl ame. The fl ame will rise and fall somewhat. This is normal.
