PLANNING & INSTALLATION CHECK LIST
Unless you are knowledgeable and experienced in stove installation, we recommend your VULCAN “V” Series heater
receive a Pre-delivery Check and be installed by your local Specialty Retailer or Certified HVAC Service Depot.
COMPLETE THIS CHECK LIST PRIOR TO INSTALLING YOUR PELLET APPLIANCE:
_____ Carefully read this "Owner's Manual”. SAVE THIS MANUAL.
_____ Have your local Dealer demonstrate all the operational, cleaning and maintenance steps necessary
for your stove.
_____ Select a location. The design of your home and the stove placement will determine its value as a
source of heat. A pellet appliance depends primarily on air circulation to disperse its heat. There are
other practical considerations, which must be considered before a final placement is decided on:
Existing Chimneys, Pellet Fuel Storage, Aesthetic Considerations, Roof Design (rafter
locations & roof pitch), Room Traffic, Clearances to Combustibles, and Existing Wiring.
_____ The installation of this appliance must conform to local codes and applicable state and federal
requirements. Becoming familiar with these requirements before installation is essential.
_____ Sign and keep a copy of the Pre-delivery Check List supplied by your Authorized VULCAN “V”
Series Dealer, OR “Dansons Certified Installer”, found inside our appliance or available online.

and a gentle type cleaner. Caution: Never use an abrasive cleaner on any part of your stove.
_____ Polish the hopper to remove the oil type coating used in manufacturing.
_____ The high temp. stove paint used on your stove may take several hours of burning at a high fuel setting to
fully cure. During this time an odor, which is not harmful, may be evident. The area around the stove
should be well ventilated.
_____ Review and follow the Lighting and Controls Instructions.
_____ Fill the hopper with quality pellets to prime the unit; Using the CCI “AcuTron”, (figure 5), PUSH the
FEED RATE Touch Pad and this will start the auger and the combustion fan.
NOTE: Do not attempt to light a fire at this time. Leave the START / FEED RATE [ON] for 2 to 5
minutes until pellets start dropping into the burn grate. Then touch the OFF pad to turn off system . The
auger is now primed to deliver fuel to the burn grate (figure 6). Then light the stove according to the
