E.  Before Your First Fire
1.  First,  make  sure  your  appliance  has  been  properly
installed and that all safety requirements have been met.
Pay particular attention to the fire protection, venting and
thermostat installation instructions.
2.  Double check that the ash drawer and firebox are empty!
3.  Close the front door.
IMPORTANT DETAIL:  The tip of the thermocouple must 
be in contact with the inside end of the thermocouple 
cover or missed ignitions can occur.
G.  Starting Your First Fire
1.  A  thermostat  is  required  for  proper  operation  of  this
appliance. At this time, fill the hopper with pellets, set
the thermostat to its lowest setting. Plug the power cord
into nearby outlet.
2.  The  exhaust  blower  will  stay  on  for  approximately  18
minutes  even  though  the  thermostat  is  not  calling  for
heat. This is normal.
3.  Locate  the  heat  output  control  switch  mounted  on  the
back of the appliance in the upper right corner.
Figure 
9.1.  Turn it to the “high” setting by pushing the top of
the control switch in and then adjust the thermostat to its
highest setting. Remove the right side panel and the red
call light located to the left of the control box will be on.
Figure 10.1. This indicates the thermostat is calling for
heat.
4.  The fuel feed system and the igniter should now be on.
5.  For your first fire it will be necessary to press the reset
button once approximately 2 minutes after start up and
again in 5 minutes. This will fill the feed system and allow
the appliance to begin dropping pellets. The appliance
will continue to run as long as the thermostat is calling
for heat.
D.  General Operating Information
1.  Thermostat Calls For Heat
The  appliance  is  like  most  modern  furnaces;  when  the
thermostat calls for heat, your appliance will
 automatically
light and deliver heat. When the room is up to temperature
and the thermostat is satisfied, the red call light will go off
and the appliance will shut down.
2.  Heat Output Controls
This appliance is equipped with a heat output control switch
that has three settings or burn rates; low, medium and high.
The appliance will turn on and off as the thermostat demands.
When the thermostat calls for heat, the appliance will start
up at the burn rate for which it is set. If the appliance is set
at one of the lower settings, it will run quieter but take longer
to heat up an area than if it were set at a higher burn rate.
Regardless of the burn rate, when the area is warm enough
to satisfy the thermostat, the appliance will shut off.

F.  Filling the Hopper with Fuel
1.  Open the hopper lid and pull the lid towards you. The lid
can now serve as a shelf to support the bag of fuel.
2.  Do not over fill the hopper. The lid must be completely
closed to maintain proper vacuum and for the feed motor
to operate. An error message will appear on the wall
control if the lid is not properly closed.
3.  Remove any sawdust or fuel from the lid gasket after
refilling hopper.
4.  Do not leave any part of the fuel bag on the appliance
after refilling hopper.
5.  Store fuel away from the appliance to maintain proper
safe air clearance to combustibles.
