C. Before Your First Fire
1. First, make sure your appliance has been properly
installed and that all safety requirements have been met.
Pay particular attention to the fire protection, venting and
thermostat installation instructions.
2. Double check that the ash pan and firebox are empty!
3. Check the position of the thermocouple, located above
the firepot, and make sure that it protrudes approximately
3/4 inch (19mm) into the firepot.
4. Close the front door.
E. Fire Characteristics
A properly adjusted fire with the heat output control switch set
on “HIGH” has a short active flame pattern that extends out
of the firepot approximately 4 to 6 inches (102-105mm). If
the fire has tall flames with black tails and seems somewhat
lazy, the feed rate will need to be reduced. If the fire is not 4
inches to 6 inches (102-105mm) tall, increase the feed rate.
A medium and low setting will give a shorter flame. The flame
will rise and fall somewhat. This is normal.
The feed adjustment control rod is factory set, and should
be adequate for most fuels.
The set screw is located at the
bottom of the hopper and set loose at the factory so the fuel
adjustment control rod will slide by only loosening the wing
nut. Do not re-tighten bottom set screw.
However, if the flame height is too high or too low, you will

D. Starting Your First Fire
1. A thermostat is required for proper operation of this
appliance, except for corn. At this time, fill the hopper
with pellets, set the thermostat to its lowest setting. Plug
the power cord into nearby outlet.
2. The exhaust blower will stay on for approximately 10
minutes even though the thermostat is not calling for
heat. This is normal.
3. L
ocate the heat output control switch on the right side
behind the right side panel. Set to the HIGH setting and
then adjust the thermostat to its highest setting. The
red call light will be on which is located on the right side
behind the right side panel. This indicates the thermostat
is calling for heat. See Figure 25.1 on page 25.
4.
The fuel feed system and the igniter should

be on.
5. For your first fire it will be necessary to press the reset
button approximately 2 minutes after start-up and again
at 4 minutes. This will fill the feed system and allow the
appliance to begin dropping pellets. Continue pushing
the reset button until you detect that pellets are being
delivered into the firepot. The appliance will continue to
run as long as the thermostat is calling for heat.
6. Once the appliance has ignited, let the it burn for
approximately 15 minutes, then set the thermostat to the
desired room temperature. Adjust the heat output control
switch to the desired setting.
need to adjust the feed rate. Wait until the appliance has been
burning for 15 minutes before making your adjustments and
a
llow 15 minutes for feed adjustment to take effect.
1. Open the hopper lid and locate the fuel adjustment control
rod.
2. Loosen the wing nut on the rod.
3. Adjust the fuel adjustment control rod towards the "+"
symbol to increase the feed rate and flame height or
towards the "-" symbol, to decrease the feed rate and
G. Ignition Cycles
1. During each ignition cycle, it is normal to see some smoke
in the firebox. The smoke will stop once the fire starts.
2. The convection blower will automatically turn on after your
appliance has reached the set temperature. This blower
transfers heat from your appliance into the room, and will
continue to run after the thermostat has stopped calling
for heat until the appliance has cooled down.
3. Occasionally the appliance may run out of fuel and shut
itself down. When this happens, the red call light will be
on. To restart it, fill the hopper and press the reset button.
When you press the reset button the red call light will go
out. Release the button and the light will come back on.
You should see a fire shortly. If not, follow the instructions
“Starting Your First Fire”.on this page.
