This unit should be turned off and allowed to cool prior to cleaning. Any ashes should be kept in
an airtight metal container and not disposed of until they are completely cooled.
15. Read the instructions thoroughly, including instructions concerning the digital control board, and
save them for future reference.
16. Do not allow paint, chemicals or construction dust on or near your unit. Do not allow liquid or
ANY foreign materials on or inside your unit. Shut your unit down and cover it when painting,
construction or similar activity is taking place. Wipe and clean your unit after any construction is
done in your home, or if any foreign material gets on or inside your unit. You may also need to
remove the rear and side cover plates to your unit (unplug unit first) and vacuum and clean the
motors and inside of your unit.

resulting in smoke-backs.
18. Remember that, as with any appliance, there is user responsibility involved, including installation,
operation and maintenance of this product. Be sure to check local codes, and call Technical
Support at (800) 245-6489 if you have any questions.
19. Be sure to follow the directions of all manufacturers of third party products that you use,
including exhaust pipe, etc. Never use gasoline, lantern fuel, charcoal lighter fluid, diesel
fuel or any other flammable liquid to start the fire. If you manually start your unit,
recommended fire starter materials are: Wax-impregnated wood chips, cardboard cubes
or firestarter chips designed for pellet stoves (see section on Manually Starting Unit).
Follow any manufacturer’s directions for these products, and NEVER place any firestarter
on any hot surface or hot coals. Never apply any firestarter products of any kind to a hot
surface or hot coals.
UNIT PREPARATION
1.
Attach the spring handle to the door by turning it counterclockwise. Important– also check the
hopper lid gasket as this seal must be tight to prevent back-burn.
2.
Test your 110-volt outlet for current and then plug in the unit. (We highly recommend a surge
protector for our pellet unit, as the control panel is electronic).
3. It is important to note that this stove is equipped with a dual auger system. The top auger runs
intermittently and drops pellets to the bottom auger; the bottom auger runs constantly and simply
pushes the pellets forward to the burn pot. The control board (“Heat Range”) setting determines
the top auger feed rate.
4. The stove has a digital read-out control board and is started by pressing the “ON” touch pad. This
will start the upper auger, lower auger and exhaust blower. The room air blower will start later as
the stove reaches the pre-set blower temperature (see “Control Board” section for further
explanation).
5. Check to be sure both augers and the exhaust blower are operating before inserting the unit into
the fireplace and connecting the unit to the flue system. Be sure to “dry run” your unit for 20
minutes before connecting it to the flue (it should stop automatically after 20 minutes).
