high. the most effi cient setting is 4 (optimum).
!
WARNING
Due to different installation set ups, length and size of venting and fuel quality, the low feed setting from the factory will not
always be correct. It may be necessary to experiment with feed rate vs air control. (For example, #2 may be your lowest
setting).
Always operate this heater with the door closed.
If this is the fi rst time the heater has started or the heater has run out of pellets, the auger will need to be purged.
Press "START" switch, turn the pellet feed dial to high to fi ll the auger full of pellets and pull the air control rod all the way
out allowing air fl ow into the fi re. If the heater does not reach the required temperature and turns off after 15 minutes,
press the start switch again. This time turn the pellet feed dial to low, to prevent over fi lling the burn pot and continue with
the start-up instructions below.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
START-UP
SHUT-DOWN
To turn your heater off, simply turn the feed dial counter-clockwise until the dial clicks to the "OFF" position. This will stop
the feed of pellets. The blowers will continue to run to cool the heater. When cool enough, the heater will shut down. DO
NOT unplug unit while combustion blower is operating. This may lead to smoke escaping from the heater into the
room.
1. Press "START" switch
2. Rotate the Pellet feed dial rate to optimum
3. Adjust the air control rod to the preferred setting (this position will vary depending on venting confi guration and fuel
quality).
4. If the heater stops running after approximately 15 minutes, press "START" switch again.
If no ignition is apparent and pellets are building up in the burn pot, remove pellets from the burn pot before restarting.
Blower Speed Dial
By adjusting the Blower Speed dial you will vary the rate of
airfl ow into the room by varying the speed of the convection
blower. When you fi rst start the heater, it should be placed in the
"OFF" position in order to heat up the unit as quickly as pos-
sible. Once the room has come up to temperature, the control
may be set to a comfortable level.
NOTE: The convection blower may cycle to high automati-
cally depending on the setting of the pellet feed rate and the
Blower Speed. This is a normal safety feature of the unit.
Once the heater has cooled down the blower will return to
the set speed.
NOTE: The fl ashing amber light corresponds to the au-
ger motor feeding the pellets. Wood pellets of different
quality may affect the performance of the heater. If the
heater has trouble operating at the ends of it's range,
adjust the feed rate accordingly.

The pellet heater can be operated with or without the ring in place over the burn pot. With the ring in place, a more ef-
fi cient burn will occur, however more fi ner fl y ash will be experienced. It may be necessary to clean the burn pot of ash
more frequently.
