• If the fire should happen to go out and the heat
output indicator has been set on the lowest setting,
the Slider Damper should be moved to the left slightly,
lessen the air flow into the firebox.
• If, after long periods of burning, the fire builds up
and overflows the burn pot or there is a build up of
clinkers, this would be a sign that the pellet quality is
poor, this requires more primary air, the slider damper
must be moved to the right to give the fire more air.
The easiest way to make sure that an efficient flame
is achieved is to understand the characteristics of the
fire.
• A tall, lazy flame with dark orange tips requires
more air – Push Right
• A short, brisk flame, like a blowtorch, has too much
air – Push Left
• If the flame is in the middle of these two
characteristics with a bright yellow/orange, active
flame with no black tips then the air is set for proper
operation.
The combustion exhaust blower is a variable speed
blower controlled by the heat output setting. This
blower will increase or decrease the blower speed as
the heat output setting is turned up or down.
SPECIAL NOTES:
Pellet quality is a major factor in how the pellet stove

will operate. If the pellets have a high moisture content or ash content the fire will be less efficient and
has a higher possibility of the fire building up and creating clinkers (hard ash build-up). If this happens,
move the Slider / Damper to the right slightly to increase the air flow to the fire.
AUTOMATIC SAFETY FEATURES:
Your pellet Stove has the following safety features:
A) The stove will shut off when the fire goes out and the exhaust temperature drops below 120 °F
(49°C).
B) The stove has a high temperature safety switch. If the temperature on the hopper reaches 200 °F
(93 °C) the auger will automatically stop and you will get a #2 ash code, and the stove will shut off
when the exhaust temperature cools. If this happens call your local dealer to reset the 200 °F (93 °C)
high limit switch. FIND THE REASONS WHY THE UNIT OVERHEATED.
C) The unit is equipped with a vacuum switch to monitor the venting and the build up of ash in the burn
pot; if either becomes blocked the vacuum switch will turn off the auger and the stove will shut off.
