Operating Instructions

A. Fire Safety

You can never be too cautious when it comes to

fire safety. Please give serious consideration to the

following:

• Install at least one smoke detector and CO detector

on each level of the home.

• Locate detectors away from the appliance and

close to the sleeping quarters.

• Follow the manufacturer's guidelines on placement

and installation as well as maintaining regularly.

• Place a Class A fire extinguisher nearby to contend

with small fires.

• In the event of a fuel hopper fire:

• Evacuate the house immediately.

• Notify the Fire Department.

B. Fuel and Fuel Storage

Pellet fuel quality can fluctuate. This appliance is

designed to burn a wide variety of pellet fuel, giving

you the freedom to choose the most economical fuel

in your area.

Hearth & Home Technologies strongly recommends

that you choose a fuel that is recognized by the Pellet

Fuels Institute (PFI)

Pellet fuels are made from sawdust, or other wood

fibers. The source material determines the ash and

heat content. Higher ash content fuel, or Standard

Grade, may contain bark, leaves, stems, or other

by-products. Higher ash may not mean more or less

heat value, but it will require more maintenance and

cleaning. Low ash content fuel, or Premium Grade, is

made from only the cleanest sawdust. Cleaning and

maintenance are greatly reduced while typically higher

heat value is experienced.

APPROVED FUELS

• Wood Pellets- Any grade of wood or biomass

pelletized fuel. Pellets should be either 1/4 inch or

5/16 inch (6 - 8mm) in diameter, and no more than

1½" (38mm) in length.

• Shelled Field Corn- Corn is approved for use as

a fuel ONLY when mixed with pellets. The tested

mixture is up to 50% corn. Since corn is grown as

a feed source, and not as a fuel, there are many

possible inconsistencies with regards to burning.

Because of this, you may not be successful with

the maximum mixture, and may need to reduce

the percentage of corn in the mix. Corn should

have a moisture content of 15% or less. Corn for

burning should be clean and free of debris, stalks

and pieces of cob.

cauTion! do not burn fuel that contains an

additive; (such as soybean oil)

• May cause hopper fire

• Damage to product may result

Read the list of ingredients on the packaging. If you

are buying field corn, the only ingredient listed should

be field corn.
CAUTION! Risk of Chemical Poisoning!

Do

NOT burn treated seed corn

• Exhaust gases are toxic

• Chemicals used to treat are harmful or fatal if

ingested.

• Burning seed corn will void the product warranty.
STORAGE

Fuel should be stored in a dry area, preferably indoors,

and well away from the appliance clearance area.

Corn, for mixture, should be stored in a sealed

container to prevent mold growth and to deter pests.

Remember, corn is a food source and will attract

rodents and other pests.

CAUTION

Tested and approved for use with wood pellets

and a mixture of shelled field corn and wood

pellets ONLY. Burning of any other fuel will void

your warranty.

Hearth & Home Technologies is not responsible for

stove performance or extra maintenance required

as a result of using fuel with higher ash or mineral

content.
