FUEL SELECTION
Proper fue l selection is im portant for overall operation. Your stove operates best with 1/4" diameter wood pellets that are no longer than 3/4" long. The pellets should be specifically manufactured for use pellet heaters. Use of fuel non- conforming fue l will cause the stove to operate erratically. Additionally, a low ash content of be low 1% is required and will reduce your cleaning and maintenance time. Store pellets in a clean dry area. Do not use pellets that have been damp or have a moisture level above 5%.
The quality of pellet fuel varies fro m brand to bra nd . This will affect the efficiency of your heater. W e suggest that you try several brands until you find one that gives you a clean effi- cient burn. Poor quality pellets will burn rich with black soot and ash will accum ulate quickly. Quality pellets will burn clean and ash build up will be minim al.
attempt to operate heater if glass becomes dam aged in any way!
2.AutoLite Control Functions: Control functions on the Easyfire are as follows: OFF, FAN, LOW , MEDIUM, HIGH, CLEAN. Here is how each function works:
A.W hen the Control Button is turned to FAN , a tim er is activated and you will have about ten (10) minutes to get the pellets lit and reach a minimum tem perature. This function is used for match lighting when the AC pow er is out.
Should the pellets not light in 10 minutes simply turn the button to OFF and begin again. This will give you another 10 minutes to get the pellets lit. The reason for the tim er fun ction is so that the heater will autom atically shut down if the fire goes out. Pellets do not feed in the FAN position.
B. In the LOW position, the EASYFIRE will be feeding approximately 1 to 1½ lbs. of pellets per hour and the flam e will fluctuate between 1" and 6" in height.
