P68 Pellet Stove
3-90-00688R24_06/13
The P68 Pellet Stove is capable of manual operation. This also allows the operator to manually
control operation during an emergency (i.e. igniter failure, or when using certain generators
or other auxilliary power source.)
The unit can be switched between "AUTO" and "MANUAL" at any time during operation.
igniter switch to "Manual"
room temperature Mode
The fire will have to be lit with starting gel and a match, or
started automatically, see "Automatic Operation" on Page
15. Turn to "Manual" position after the ignition cycle begins.
The difference between "AUTO" Room Temperature Mode
and "Manual" Room Temperature Mode is that the fire will
not go out as the room temperature goes above the control
board setting. The unit can only go to low burn and will remain
there until it runs out of fuel or until more heat is needed
and the feed rate increases. Feed rate adjustments and dial
settings are the same as "AUTO" settings. The blower will
shut off completely if the temperature on the ESP is too low.

The advantage of this mode is to allow the operator to have
a large viewing fire without blowing extra heat into the room.
During operation, with the temperature dial set at #4 or less,
the distribution fan will not operate. A #4 on the temperature
dial and a #5 on the feed adjuster is approximately 80%
output. It is not necessary to operate the distribution blower
below this point. This control setting allows a higher burn rate
(a larger viewing fire) without an excess of hot air blowing
into the room.
An example of when to use the Manual Stove Temperature
Mode is if you want to watch a large fire and the room is
already up to temperature. The Stove Temperature Mode
allows you to have a larger fire and a lower sound level,
without the distribution blower.
note: during the use of this mode, if you keep increasing
the temperature dial setting to increase the fire size, the
distribution blower will automatically come on when the
esP temperature reaches 350
o
F, or 81% output.
Manual ignition/oPeration
Room Temperature Mode: This
setting, see below, will produce a
room temperature of 70 degrees
with the distribution blower at
medium speed.
This setting will produce a large viewing fire without a
distribution blower operating.
