Factory-approved pellets
are those 1/4” or 5/16” in diameter and not over 1” long. Longer or thicker pellets sometimes bridge the auger fl ights,
which prevents proper pellet feed. Burning wood in forms other than pellets is not permitted. It will violate the building
codes for which the stove has been approved and will void all warranties. The design incorporates automatic feed of
the pellet fuel into the fi re at a carefully prescribed rate. Any additional fuel introduced by hand will not increase heat
output but may seriously impair the stoves performance by generating considerable smoke. Do not burn wet pellets.
The stove’s performance depends heavily on the quality of your pellet fuel. Avoid pellet brands that display these
characteristics:

frequent maintenance. You will have to empty the burn pot plus vacuum the entire system more often. Poor quality

PRE-START-UP CHECK
Remove burn pot, making sure it is clean and none of the air holes are plugged. Clean the fi rebox, and then reinstall
burn pot. Clean door glass if necessary (a dry cloth or paper towel is usually suffi cient). Never use abrasive cleaners
on the glass or door. Check fuel in the hopper, and refi ll if necessary.
NOTE: The VG5770 Hopper can hold up to 60 lbs. of pellets.

BUILDING A FIRE
Never use a grate or other means of supporting the fuel. Use only the burn pot supplied with this heater.
Hopper lid must be closed in order for the unit to feed pellets.
During the start-up period:
1. Make sure burn pot is free of pellets.
2. DO NOT open the viewing door.
3. DO NOT open the damper, the damper needs to be closed during start up.
4. DO NOT add pellets to the burn pot by hand.
NOTE: During the fi rst few fi res, your stove will emit an odor as the high temperature paint cures or becomes sea-
soned to the metal. Maintaining smaller fi res will minimize this. Avoid placing items on stove top during this period
because paint could be affected.

DAMPER CONTROL
The damper control lever is located on the back of the stove on the lower left side. The dampener adjusts the com-
bustion air. This control is necessary due to the varied burn characteristics of individual installations, different pellet
brands and pellet feed rates. It allows you to improve the effi ciency of your stove. Providing correct combustion air
will reduce the frequency of cleaning your glass door and prevent the rapid buildup of creosote inside your stove and
