United States Stove 5510 Control Panel Overview, On/Off, Heat Range, Draft Fan, Room Fan, Mode

Control Panel Overview

Turning the heater ON/OFF, as well as adjustments for the fuel feed rate and room fan speed are performed by pressing the appropriate button(s) on the control panel which is located on the lower left-hand side of your heater.

This unit can be changed between an automatic operation or a manual operation. The controller comes default in the automatic mode.

•ON/OFF

Pressing the “ON” button on the control panel will begin the start-up sequence for the heater. Fuel will begin to feed through the auger feed system then ignite after approx. 5 minutes.

Pressing the “OFF” button on the control panel will cause the heater to enter its shut-down sequence. The fuel feed system will stop pulling fuel from the hopper and, once the fire goes out and the heater cools down, the fans will stop running.

•HEAT RANGE

Pressing the “Heat Range” arrows, up or down, will adjust the amount of fuel being delivered to the burnpot.

•DRAFT FAN

The draft fan (exhaust) will come on as soon as the “ON” button is pressed. The fan will automatically adjust its speed in accordance to the heat range setting. However, this speed can be manually operated by pressing the “Draft Fan” arrows up or down. “Draft Fan” when pressed, the display will show “Df-A”, which is automatic. Press the arrows again to adjust fan speed. When the heater is in the manual mode, the optional thermostat will not properly control the unit. When adjusting the Draft Fan setting, try only 1 setting above or below the heat setting. It is better to leave the stove in the automatic mode.

•ROOM FAN

The room fan will come on once the unit has reached operating temperature. By pressing the “Room Fan” buttons, the display will show “Rf-A” which is automatic or “Rf-1” through “Rf-9” for manual settings. In auto mode, the room fan’s speed will automatically be adjusted in accordance with the heat range setting. By pressing the “Room Fan” up arrow, you can adjust the fan speed setting up to “Rf-9”. The room fan must operate at a level greater than or equal to the heat range setting.

•AUX - USED TO RETURN THE STOVE TO THE FACTORY SETTINGS

To return the stove to it’s original factory settings, press and hold the AUX UP and AUX DOWN buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds.

•AUGER DELAY

The “Auger Delay” button can be used to pause rotation of the Auger for approx. 1 minute. This can be cancelled by pressing the “ON” button. The “Auger Delay” is normally used only during the start up cycle to slow the fuel delivery down during the initial ignition.

•MODE

The “Mode” button is used to switch between manual and automatic mode. When in auto mode, the fans and auger will operate at preset intervals unless changed manually using the buttons mentioned above. When in manual mode, the draft fan (exhaust) will operate at full speed (100%).

During normal operation, the unit is constantly monitored for problems. In the event of an error condition, the unit will stop and an error will be displayed. See the list of error codes found at the end of this manual.
