D. Before Your First Fire

• Be sure the appliance is installed properly and

that all safety requirements have been met.

Pay particular attention to the clearances to

combustibles, floor protection and the venting

instructions.

• Test your smoke detector(s) and CO detector(s) to

the specifications of the manufacturer.

• Double check that the ash pan and internal firebox

are empty.

• Be sure to read this entire manual.

E. Draft Test Procedure

• Using a 9/16" wrench, remove the draft test port

plug bolt, located to the left inside the firebox. This

bolt threads downward through the outside of the

body. Externally, the opened hole is located above

the ash pan spring latch on the left.

• Insert

the draft

meter

hose into

the test

port.

• Be sure

the meter

is capable

of a scale

between 0

and 1 inch

Water

Column.

Zero the meter if necessary, and be sure it is set

up to read in negative pressure.

• Be sure the ash pan, door, and hopper lid are all

closed and latched.

• Turn the feed adjuster to "Test" mode.

• During the first minute of test, the combustion

blower will be on high. Record the high draft

reading here ____________-W.C. The high draft

should be above -0.5" W.C. but no higher than -1"

W.C.

• After a minute, the combustion blower will go

to low speed. Here you want to see a reading

between -0.30" and -0.35". If necessary, adjust the

draft voltage using the low draft adjustment screw

on the circuit board (See Page 24). Clockwise

will increase the draft and counter-clockwise will

decrease it.

• Once set, record the low draft reading

here:___________ -W.C.

• Be sure and turn off of "Test" mode. Disconnect

the meter and return the plug bolt to the test port.

F. Starting a Fire - "MANUAL"

1. With the mode selector in the "OFF" position, and

the Feed Adjuster

NOT on "Test", plug the power

cord into a properly grounded receptacle.

2. Fill the hopper with DRY fuel.

3. Turn the FEED ADJUSTER dial to "Test". This will

run the feed motor for one minute. If you begin to

see fuel entering the burn pot, you can stop the

test cycle. Return to #4 or #5 to start out.

4. Turn the mode selector dial to the desired mode.

This will start the combustion blower operating.

If Room Temp is selected, be sure to turn

the temperature dial above the current room

temperature.

5. Fill the burn pot with a mixture of wood pellets and

starting gel.

6. Light the starting gel with a match, and close the

door.

7. Only after the ESP temperature increases, will the

feeder start operating to increase the fire size.

NEVER APPLY STARTING GEL TO THE FUEL IN

THE BURN POT WITHOUT THE COMBUSTION

BLOWER OPERATING.
