The easiest way to make sure that
an efficient flame is achieved is to
understand the characteristics of the
fire.
• A tall, lazy flame with dark orange
tips requires more air – Open
slider (pull out) slightly.
• A short, brisk flame, like a
blowtorch, has too much air
– Close slider (push in) slightly.
• If the flame is in the middle of
these two characteristics with a
bright yellow/orange, active flame
with no black tips then the air is
set for proper operation.
The combustion exhaust blower is a
variable speed blower controlled by
the heat output setting. This blower
will increse or decrease the blower
speed as the heat output setting is
turned up or down.
Operating Instructions
SLIDER / DAMPER SETTING:
THE SLIDER / DAMPER MUST BE SET AT TIME OF INSTALLATION.
A Qualified Service Technician or Installer must set the Slider Damper.
• If the fire should happen to go out and the heat output indicator has been set on the lowest setting,
the Slider Damper should be pushed in slightly, decreasing the air in the firebox.
• If, after long periods of burning, the fire builds up and overflows the burn pot or there is a build up
of clinkers, this would be a sign that the pellet quality is poor, this requires more primary air, the slider
damper must be pulled out to compensate. Pulling the slider damper out gives the fire more air.

SPECIAL NOTES:
Pellet quality is a major factor in how the pellet stove will operate. If the pellets have a high moisture
content or ash content the fire will be less efficient and has a higher possibility of the fire building up and
creating clinkers (hard ash build-up). If this happens, pull the Slider / Damper out slightly to increase the
air flow to the fire.
