a. Feed Rate Adjustment
The Circuit board runs on a one minute timer cycle.
Each minute, the board is thinking ahead to what it
needs to do for the next minute to maintain or achieve
the demanded temperature. What you are setting on
the feed adjuster dial is the maximum amount of feed
time, per minute, that you'll allow.
The circuit board will make its own determination of
how long to run the feeder, UP TO the maximum, as
set on the dial. For instance, a number 4 setting on the
feed adjuster will allow a maximum of 40 seconds per
minute of feed. If the room temperature is satisfied,
with only feeding 20 seconds, then that is all the circuit
board will run the feeder. When heating a large area,
the number 4 setting is usually adequate, however,
fuel quality may dictate a higher or lower setting. If
you see un-burned or burning fuel being pushed off
of the grate during a high demand period, the feed
rate is set too high. Ideally, you'll want to see about
an inch of ashes in front of the burning fuel during a
peak demand period. When the appliance is located
in a smaller room or area, the feed adjuster may need
to be kept at a lower setting of #2 or #3, to maintain a
fire with less frequent shut-down and ignition cycles.
Always allow a minimum of fifteen minutes between
making any adjustments to the feed rate.
Note: Since the circuit board is feeding as needed,
only adjust the feed rate while maximum demand
is occurring. (Stove Temp Mode, with a temp dial
setting of #7 will create maximum demand.)
b. Mode Selection
Room-Temp mode is the ideal mode of operation if
you wish to maintain a comfortable temperature in
the room. As the outdoor temperature fluctuates,
the control will adjust the feed rate to maintain the
desired temperature setting in the room. For best
results, be sure the room sensor is located away from
drafty areas and not positioned on the floor or near
an exterior wall.
Stove-Temp mode is more of a manual method of
operation. The stove will run at a constant heat output,
regardless of surrounding air temperature. Note that
on the coldest days, your indoor heated space will be
cooler than on the warmer days. The only real benefit
to this mode of operation is that you'll be able to know
exactly how long a hopper full of fuel will last, because
the consumption is going to stay relatively the same.
c. Temperature Dial
The temperature dial is a dual purpose dial. In Room-
Temp mode, you select the room temperature you want
the stove to maintain at the room sensor probe. This
is marked in Fahrenheit scale from 50 to 90 degrees.
In Stove-Temp mode, you select a temperature setting
based on the #1 - 7 with 1 being a minimum burn and
7 being a maximum burn rate.
d. Blower Speed Adjustment
The mode selector is also marked with a L to H scale
in each mode. This is a variable speed control for the
distribution blower. L is the low setting, and H is the
high setting. It is important to note that the blower
will not come on until the ESP reaches a specific
temperature, to ensure that cold air is not being blown
out into the room. Also, the speed of the blower, when
set on lower speeds, will automatically increase as the
temperature of the stove increases.
e. Igniter Mode Switch
The toggle switch for the igniter is a two position
switch. Select from either AUTOMATIC or MANUAL.
AUTOMATIC- Will automatically start the fire in either
STOVE TEMP or ROOM TEMP mode.
sTove Temp: The ignition mode will start the fire one
time only. Since STOVE TEMP maintains a constant
output, the fire will never go out to need re-ignited.
room Temp: The ignition mode will start the first fire.
Then, if the room temperature is satisfied, the fire will
go out. Once the room cools, the ignition mode will
start another fire, and so on. This mode provides fully
automatic temperature control.
MANUAL- The fire must be started manually using
starting gel or other manufactured fire starter.
MANUAL- With the igniter switch in the MANUAL
position, the igniter is disabled.
sTove Temp: The fire would need to be started
manually, and will maintain a constant output based
on the temperature setting.
room Temp: The fire would need to be started
manually. The control will adjust output to maintain a
constant room temperature, however it will not allow
the fire to go out. If the room temperature is satisfied,
the control will adjust to the minimum burn rate and
hold there until the room temperature decreases.
