owner‟s manual.

 

 

4. One of the two augers motor has failed.

Remove the auger motor from the auger shaft and try to run the

 

motor separately by pressing the fuel feed button on the control

 

board. Make sure that the hopper lid is not open. If the motor turns,

 

the shaft is jammed on something. If the motor does not turn, the

 

motor is defective or there is a faulty connection with the control

 

board. To remove the auger motor, take the rear louver off the stove

 

body. Loosen the two screws holding the motor to the auger shaft.

 

 

5. One of the two auger shaft is jammed.

Remove the auger shaft from the auger housing. Start by emptying

 

the hopper. Take the rear louver off the stove body. Then take the

 

auger motor off by removing the screws that hold the motor to the

 

auger shaft. Once the motor is out, remove the four screws on the

 

steel plate that holds the auger shaft to the auger housing. Then

 

rotate the bottom end of the auger shaft down towards you until you

 

can pull the shaft down out of the stove. After you have removed the

 

shaft, inspect it for bent flights, burrs, or broken welds. Remove any

 

foreign material that may have caused the jam. Also, check the

 

auger housing for signs of damage such as burrs, rough spots, or

 

grooves cut into the metal that could have caused a jam. Clean the

 

auger housing thoroughly to remove all pellet dust.

 

 

6. The thermistor heat sensor has malfunctioned.

The thermistor is a heat sensor located on the exhaust housing. Its

 

function is to tell the control board that the unit has ignited properly

 

by measuring the heat in the exhaust. The pellet stove will not start

 

feeding pellets at the desired heat setting until it has received a

 

signal from the thermistor heat sensor. If the thermistor heat sensor

 

is bad, the unit will stop after the ignition cycle. If this situation

 

occurs, call your dealer or technician.

1. Blockage in igniter tube or inlet for igniter tube.

 

 

Remove the burn pot and clean it thoroughly. Make sure that all

 

 

 

 

 

 

openings are clear. Find the place where the igniter tube comes out

 

 

 

 

 

 

of the burn pot housing. It is a small tube located on the back of the

 

 

 

 

 

 

burn pot housing. Make sure it is clear. Make sure there is no debris

 

 

 

 

 

 

around the igniter element or inside the igniter tube.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.

Defective igniter element.

 

 

Supply power directly to the igniter element. Watch the tip of the

 

 

 

 

 

 

igniter from the front of the stove. After about 30 seconds, the tip

 

 

 

 

 

 

should glow. If it does not, the element is defective and must be

 

 

 

 

 

 

replaced. You may need a technician to perform this test.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.

The thermistor heat sensor has malfunctioned.

 

 

The thermistor is a heat sensor located on the exhaust housing. Its

 

 

 

 

 

 

function is to tell the control board that the unit has ignited properly

 

 

 

 

 

 

by measuring the heat in the exhaust. The pellet stove will not start

 

 

 

 

 

 

feeding pellets at the desired heat setting until it has received a

 

 

 

 

 

 

signal from the thermistor heat sensor. If the thermistor heat sensor

 

 

 

 

 

 

is bad, the unit will stop after the ignition cycle. If this situation

 

 

 

 

 

 

occurs, call your dealer or technician.
