manual abstract
When the internal temperature drops to 95 degrees the room air blower will cease to operate, and when the internal temperature drops to 90 degrees the exhaust blower will stop. The red light will then shut off and the entire stove will be shut down. The hotter the unit is operating, the longer it will take for the stove to complete the Shut-Down cycle. Note: The unit will exit the Shut-Down cycle if you press any buttons during Shut-Down. Note: If the room temperature stays above 70 degrees the stove will remain in the Shut Down mode for 60 minutes, regardless of the temperature reading at the heat sensor. If the stove stays on longer than 60 minutes the unit will automatically turn off. NOTE: If your unit overheats the auger will stop feeding and the unit will go into Shut-Down if it does not recover; if this happens you need to wait 45 minutes before trying to re- light the unit. DAILY OPERATION Refueling the Unit Always press the “OFF” touch pad before refueling. This stove has a approximately 80-lb. hopper, and should be refilled when the hopper level drops to three or four inches. Note: The hopper lid will be warm; therefore, you should always use some type of hand protection. NEVER place your hand near the auger while the stove is operating. Note: Always ensure that all corn and pellet matter is cleared from the hopper lid gasket before closing. Be sure to close and latch hopper securely before re-firing. Do not operate this unit with the hopper lid open or unsecured. Power Outage If the power to the unit is interrupted for approximately three minutes or less, the unit will resume operation when power is restored according to the following table: Unit’s State Before Power Loss State When Power Returns ON Start-Up Start-Up Start-Up Shut-Down Shut-Down OFF OFF If the power is interrupted for more than (approximately) three minutes, the unit will be “OFF” when power returns. Important: Do NOT open the hopper lid or the door to the unit during power outage. Open the closest outside door and a window to eliminate the home’s natural draft. Wait for power to be restored and then press the “ON” button to re-start the unit, if necessary. NOTE: Remember: 1) It is very important for the unit to be vented properly (see instructions on Outside Air), as the natural draft is needed to clear the smoke from the stove. 2) Do not open the hopper lid (or the unit’s door). This may cause fire to burn in the hopper. Fuel Outage If your unit runs out of fuel, let the unit go through the complete Shut-Down cycle and then follow the instructions for restarting the unit. NOTE: DO NOT TRY TO RESTART THE UNIT HOT. If the unit runs without pellets or corn, after one hour the unit will shut down. Combustion Blower Failure If the Combustion (exhaust) Blower should fail on this unit, a Vacuum Shut-Down Switch will automatically stop the auger. This will cause your stove to stop feeding fuel to the firepot, and the unit will eventually stop completely. Check your power supply, including tripped breakers, etc. If the blower has failed, you will need to contact Customer Service at (800) 245-6489. NOTE: It is very important for the unit to be vented properly (see instructions on Outside Air), as the natural draft is needed to clear the smoke from the stove. ASH REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL IMPORTANT: While the amount of ash generated by this unit is not excessive compared to log-burning woodstoves, keeping the unit clean and free of ash is essential for peak performance. Too much ash build-up hampers airflow and reduces the unit’s efficiency, and can cause smoke-back. Daily Ash Maintenance Press the “OFF” touch pad and allow the stove to burn for five (5) minutes prior to opening the door. A long-handled screwdriver or long-handled putty knife can be used to scrape off any build-up or crust in the burn pot area. This can then be pushed to the left or right into the ash storage area. Ash Pan NOTE: The ash pan must be latched when the unit is in operation. NEVER operate the unit with the ash pan out! This unit has an ash pan for more convenient and hassle-free cleaning; to open, simply pull the handles and rotate them down, then pull the ash pan forward. Note also that there are two access panels (one on each side) inside the unit in the bottom; to put ashes into the ash pan, remove the panels and push the ashes into the ash pan and then replace them, making sure that the area under these plates are clear before replacing them. As noted below, the unit should be off and cooled before any ash maintenance. Semi-Weekly Ash Removal Twice each week: Shut the unit down by pressing the “OFF” pad and allowing the unit to go through the complete Shut-Down cycle. Allow the unit to completely cool down and then remove the ashes with a scoop, as described in the Ash Pan section above. The ashes should be placed in a non-combustible container with an airtight lid and should always be placed on a non-combustible surface or on the ground until completely cooled...
