DAILY OPERATION
Getting Started
• Check to see that the hopper is clean and free from foreign materials. Be sure
to connect this unit to a working outlet; we recommend using a surge protector
to help protect the electronic components from damage.
• BEFORE your first fire, dry run your unit (no pellet fuel in the hopper) for
twenty minutes; pressing the “ON” button with the unit plugged in will initiate
the dry run.
o Once the “ON” button is pressed, you should immediately hear the
exhaust blower start and operate continuously.
o After about three to five minutes, look for the red glow of the igniter in
the igniter port of the burn pot to be certain it is operating normally.
o Hold the hopper lid switch (See “Illustrated Parts Diagram” pg. 45) down
with your finger and check to see that the auger is turning. Release the
hopper lid switch and be certain that the auger stops turning. DO NOT
PUT YOUR FINGERS IN THE HOPPER OR NEAR THE
ROTATING AUGER.
• After about twenty minutes, the control board should display “E-2” in the two
display windows (More information on Error Codes can be found in the Error
Code section of this manual).
• At this point, the dry run is complete and your pellet heating appliance is ready
for normal operation.
Lighting a Fire
• In order for this stove to operate, the hopper must first be filled with pellet fuel.
Lift the hopper lid using the flush-mount handle and pour the pellet fuel directly
into the hopper.
We recommend using only pellets manufactured by PFI Certified
facilities, since pellets bearing the PFI stamp of approval will be low
in ash and moisture, high in BTU’s, and uniform in size and quality.
