"MANUAL AUGER" Button
This button turns the auger on. It is used to “prime” the auger after the hopper has run out of pellets.
Power Outages
If a sustained power outage occurs while in "Manual", the stove will go to a "cool down" mode to
vacate smoke once power returns. If the power outage was short, the heater will go to the start-up
sequence. If in "Auto", the stove will re-start (if the room is cool).
! Because this stove relies upon a blower to evacuate the smoke, some smoke may enter
the home during a power outage. To keep to a minimum, leave the door closed.
Using a Pellet/Corn Mix with This Heater
This heater may burn a mixture of corn and wood pellets up to a 50% - 50% proportion by volume.
Shelled corn burned in Travis pellet appliances must be clean (free of husk and cob residue) and have
a moisture content no greater than 15%.
DO NOT BURN A MIX WITH MORE THAN 50% CORN TO WOOD PELLETS.
THOROUGHLY MIX THE TWO FUELS TOGETHER TO BE SURE OF AN
EVEN BURN RATE.
• If combustion is slow, if the fire is slow to start, or if clinkers (ashes that solidify into a clump)
build up rapidly in the fire pot, decrease the proportion of corn and increase the proportion
of wood pellets until you find a proportion that works well in your appliance.
• If your stove or insert is operated with a thermostat, you may notice the automatic igniter at
times fails to light a 50/50 corn to pellet mix. If you experience this, decrease the proportion
of corn and increase the proportion of wood pellets in the mix.
For an optimum fire and greatest efficiency, it is important to keep the fire pot free of built up ashes. If
you are burning only high quality wood pellets, you should check and clean the fire pot at least every
two weeks or after ten bags of pellets.
If the pellets you are burning have a high ash content or if you burn a corn/wood pellet mixture, we
recommend that you check the fire pot every day and clean it if necessary.
