SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Do not operate your stove if you smell smoke coming from it. Turn it off, monitor it, and call your dealer.

Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or “freshen up” a fire in this stove. Keep all such liquids well away from the stove while in use.

Never block free airflow through the open vents of the stove.

Keep foreign objects out of the hopper. Be sure that when you add fuel to the hopper, the pellets or corn that you are using is free of foreign material.

The stove will not operate during a power outage. If an outage does occur, keep the stove door closed, and open a window if any smoke spills into the room. Adequate vertical vent pipe on the exhaust will prevent smoke from entering the home.

Disconnect the power cord before performing any maintenance or repairs on the stove. NOTE: Turning the stove “off” does not disconnect all power from the stove.

DO NOT open the viewing door during the start up period.

Do not unplug the stove if you suspect a malfunction. Turn the stove off, inspect it, and call your dealer or qualified, trained technician.

Contact your local building officials to obtain a permit and information on any installation restrictions or inspection requirements in your area. Notify your insurance company of this stove as well.

This unit must be properly installed to prevent the possibility of a house fire. The instructions must be strictly adhered to. Do not use makeshift methods or compromise in the installation.

Your stove requires periodic maintenance and cleaning. Failure to maintain your stove may lead to smoke spillage in your home, or even a more dangerous situation.

This stove must be connected to a standard 120 V., 60 Hz grounded electrical outlet. Do not use an adapter plug or sever the grounding plug. Do not route the electrical cord underneath, in front of, or over the stove.

The exhaust system should be checked regularly. It is recommended that the exhaust system be inspected once a month, or for every ton of pellets burned. At a minimum, even if burning less than a ton per year, the exhaust should be checked twice a burning season.

Never try to repair or replace any part of the stove unless instructions are provided. A trained technician should do all other work.

Do not throw this manual away. This manual has important operating and maintenance instructions that you will need at a later time. Always follow the instructions in this manual. Read the manual thoroughly.

Do not place clothing or other flammable items on or near the stove.

The viewing door must be closed and latched during normal operation.

Do not operate the stove if the flame becomes dark and sooty or if the burn pot overfills with fuel. Turn the stove off, inspect it, and call your dealer or a qualified, trained technician.

CAUTION: Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing, and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns. Educate all children of the danger of a high temperature stove. Young children should be supervised when they are in the same room as the stove.

If the stove is installed in a room without air conditioning, or in an area where direct sunlight can shine on the unit, it is possible this can cause the temperature of the stove to rise to operational levels; one of the sensors could then make the stove start on its own. It is recommended that the stove be unplugged when not in use for extended amounts of time (i.e. during the summer months).

The exhaust system must be completely airtight and properly installed. The exhaust vent joints must be sealed with RTV 500°F (260°C) silicone sealant, and with UL-181- AP foil tape.

Allow the stove to cool before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning. Ashes must be disposed in a metal container with a tight lid and placed on a non-combustible surface well away from the home structure.

This stove is designed and approved for pelletized wood fuel and corn only. Any other type of fuel burned in this heater will void the warranty and safety listing, and may result in a hazardous condition.

When installed in a mobile home, the stove must be bolted to the floor, have outside air connected (see page 3), and NOT BE INSTALLED IN A BEDROOM (Per H.U.D. requirements). Check with local building officials.

Breckwell Hearth Products grants no warranty, implied or stated, for the installation or maintenance of your stove, and assumes no responsibility of any consequential damage(s).
