VIEW STATISTICS Numerous statistics can be viewed, such as the stove run time (i.e. the number of hours the stove has operated since it was first used). In order to view statistics, refer to the operation tree at the beginning of this section. 2.7.
2.9. CHOOSING THE PILOT LAG TIME It is possible to change the setting of your unit such that if the thermostat does not call for heat after 45 minutes, the unit will remain at the lowest heat setting (#1) without shutting down (this is the PILOT ON mode). The stove will remain at the lowest heat level until the thermostat calls for heat again. It is also possible that the unit shuts down as soon as the thermostat stops calling for heat. This mode is called “PILOT OFF”.
• If you are using a wireless wall thermostat or a hand held thermostatic remote control, you can locate the receiver behind the stove’s back panel, on the right end side, just below the terminal block. Most receivers are already equipped with quick-connect terminals. Simply unplug the PC board wires connected to the back of the terminal block and connect them directly with the receiver’s terminals. Location of the thermostat is very important to obtain the best comfort and efficiency from your EUROMAX.
2.14. FILLING-UP THE AUGER When the stove runs out of pellets, it empties the auger housing. In order to start the stove again, you need to fill the auger to bring pellets to the burn pot for ignition. This process takes approximately 1 minute and a function has been programmed on the LCD interface. In order to fill the auger, push the auger button.
2.17. STARTING THE STOVE Before you start your stove, fill hopper and clean burn pot. Once the hopper is full of pellets, the auger is filled, and the firebox door is closed, you can start the stove. In order to start the stove, select the desired mode (manual or thermostatic) then simply press the round “on/off” icon on the main status page. If fire doesn’t start in 35 minutes, a warning code troubleshooting section for more details. will appear. Refer to 2.18.

THE USE OF A DOMESTIC, CENTRAL OR COMMERCIAL VACUUM CLEANER TO PERFORM THE MAINTENANCE OF YOUR PELLET STOVE IS NOT RECOMMENDED. ASH PARTICLES ARE SO FINE THAT IT CAN DAMAGE THE MOTOR OF SUCH VACUUM CLEANERS. MOREOVER, EMBERS THAT ARE STILL HOT MAY CATCH FIRE IN THE USE OF AN ASH VACUUM.
3.2. MAINTENANCE OF THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER, HEAT EXCHANGERS AND BLOWER HOUSING Remove and clean the baffle inside the combustion chamber after burning +/- 10 bags of pellets. 3.3. MAINTENANCE OF THE HEAT EXCHANGERS AND BLOWER HOUSING The heat exchangers should be inspected regularly during the heating season. Easy access is provided: To access the heat exchangers, remove the decorative panel and the air jacket access panel located on the left hand side of the stove.
FIGURE 26 Cleanout panel and Pressure tap location 3.4. VENTING SYSTEM MAINTENANCE REGULARLY EXAMINE THE FLUE PIPES, THE JOINTS, AND THE SEALING TRIMS TO ENSURE THAT THE SMOKE AND THE COMBUSTION GASES ARE NOT TRANSPORTED INTO THE AIR DUCTING SYSTEM. The most efficient method to sweep the venting system is by using a 4-inch pellet brush. Brush downwards so ash, soot and creosote residues will come off the inner surface and fall at the bottom of the venting system where they can be removed easily.
CAUTION: CLEANOUT OF THE HEAT EXCHANGER, FLUE PIPE, AND CHIMNEY, IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT AT THE END OF THE HEATING SEASON TO MINIMIZE CORROSION DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS, CAUSED BY ACCUMULATED ASH. 3.4.2. Soot and Flyash – Formation and need for removal The products of combustion will contain small particles of flyash. The flyash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the flow of the flue gases.
3.6. DOOR ADJUSTMENT In order for your stove to operate properly, the door should be adjusted periodically to provide an air tight fit. To adjust: • Remove the lock pin (spring pin) by pulling and turning it using pliers ("wise grip") • Turn the handle counter clock wise one turn to increase pressure • Re-install the lock pin (spring pin) with a small hammer FIGURE 28 FIGURE 29 3.7. DOOR GASKET MAINTENANCE It is important to maintain the door gasket in good condition.

4. TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE When your stove acts up, your first reaction may be to call for help.This guide may save time and money by enabling you to solve simple problems yourself. Problems can be caused by generally five factors: 1) poor fuel; 2) poor operation or maintenance; 3) poor installation; 4) component failure; 5) factory defect. You can usually solve those problems related to 1 and 2. Your dealer can solve problems relating to 3, 4 and 5. Refer to figures 32 - 34 to help locate indicated parts.
Possible Causes: Possible Remedies: (Unplug stove first when possible) 1. The hopper is out of pellets. Refill the hopper. 2. The burn pot holes are blocked. Remove the burn pot and clean it thoroughly. 3. The air inlet, interior chambers, or exhaust system is partly blocked. Follow all cleaning procedures in the maintenance section of the owner’s manual. 4. One of the two augers motor has failed.
Possible Causes: Possible Remedies: 1. Blockage in igniter tube or inlet for igniter tube. Remove the burn pot and clean it thoroughly. Make sure that all openings are clear. Find the place where the igniter tube comes out of the burn pot housing. It is a small tube located on the back of the burn pot housing. Make sure it is clear. Make sure there is no debris around the igniter element or inside the igniter tube. 2. Defective igniter element. Supply power directly to the igniter element.
Possible Causes: 1. The auger jammed, the auger motor is defective or the wiring harness shorted. 2. The auger fuse has blown. Possible Remedies: Remove the control board cover and check if the F2 fuse appears to have blown. Replace it with a 3 Amp 250V fuse. Plug the stove back and try to run the unit.
