Loading Pellets

Lift the hopper lid to its vertical position. Pour pellets into the hopper.

NOTE: If the hopper lid is opened for more than 1 minute, the stove will enter shut down cycle. If this

happens, simply restart the stove.

WARNING: The top of the insert becomes hot during operation. Make sure to keep any flammable items

(bag of pellets) away from the top while reloading.

NOTE: Pull this knob to release hopper lid.

NOTE: The insert will not run when the lid is open.

Starting the Heater for the First Time

Start the Heater - Let it Burn for 1 Hour - THEN OPEN THE DOOR.
The insert paint is cured through heat. To prevent it from bonding to the door gasket, you must burn the
heater for approximately 1 hour, then open and close the door to break any bonding.

Curing the Paint

This insert uses a heat-activated paint that will
emit some fumes while starting the first fire.
Open doors and windows to the room to vent
these fumes. You may also notice oil burning
off of the interior of the insert. This rust-
stopping agent will soon dissipate. Allow 48
hours for the paint to cure.

2 to 4 hours
