INSTALLATION Horizontal Venting This stove is approved for venting with Type L and Type PL pellet vent pipe listed to UL 641 and ULC S609. We recommend the use of venting products manufactured by Security Chimneys International. Single wall pipe cannot be used with this pellet stove. The stove’s flue collar is 3” in diameter. An approved wall thimble or approved ceiling firestop must be used when the pellet pipe passes through a combustible wall or ceiling.
Masonry Chimney Fireplace When venting into a masonry chimney, the pellet pipe can terminate just inside the chimney. However, it is recommended to run the pellet pipe to the top of the chimney. When venting into a fireplace chimney, the pellet pipe can terminate just above the damper. However, it is recommended to run the pellet pipe to the top of the chimney. Figure 16 Figure 18 Figure 17 Figure 19 NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.
Vertical Outside Air Installations If the length of pipe exceeds 15 feet, 4 inch pipe rather than 3 inch vent pipe should be used. Connecting the Winslow PS40 stove to outside combustion air is optional, except in mobile home installations and when required by local building codes. The stove’s air intake will accept 3” ID pipe to accommodate outside air installations.
Door Trim Installation Instructions (A) Parts List (A): Qty (2) Trim Pieces (Gold, Nickel, Brushed Nickel or Black Nickel ) (6) #10 nuts (6) #10 washers Trim Pieces Trim Screws Tools Needed: Qty (1) 3/8” nut driver or socket wrench #10 washers Figure 23 CAUTION: Always ensure that plated surfaces are clean and free of fingerprints before lighting stove. Fingerprints will leave permanent blemishes if left on plated surface when lit.
4. Place one washer on each stud. Using a 3/8” nut driver, snug up the nuts on each piece of trim. Do not finish tightening the nuts yet. See Figure 27. 5. There should be approximately a 7/8” (22 mm) gap between the top edge of the upper trim and the top edge of the door and a 1-1/2” (38 mm) gap between the bottom trim to the bottom of the door. Visually inspect the alignment of the trim and adjust if necessary. See Figure 28. 6. Finish tightening nuts.
Door Grill Installation Instructions 3. Rotate the grill back to the horizontal position and re-install the four button head screws through the two holes at each end of the grill and into the stove body. See Figure 31. Parts Needed: Qty (4) Button Head Screws (already in place in stove) Tools Required: Qty (1) 1/8” allen wrench Rotate Grill Back To Horizontal Position To install the Grill: 1. Remove the four button head screws from body of the stove with a 1/8” allen wrench. See Figure 29.
Brick Panel Installation 2. Remove all pellets and ash from the firebox to ensure a proper fit for the brick panel. Option: Part #79030 3. Insert the brick panel, top first, as shown in Figure 35. The two cut out corners should be at the bottom.

If present, install the optional log set according to the log set installation instructions (included with your log set). 7. Re-hang the door by reversing the instructions in step 1. Figure 37 NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

C To Install the log set: 1. Remove the two log support brackets from the box and bend the ends of the brackets 90 degrees at the cut lines. See Figure 39. 2.
Operation Control Board The control board regulates all functions of the stove. The following is a list of the board’s components: • Feeding light - lights up when the auger is feeding pellets into the Burn-Pot. • Ready Light - lights up when stove is ready to operate. Igniting Light - lights up when the stove is in the ignition sequence. • Start Button - is pushed to start the ignition sequence after the heat selector knob is turned from off.
Shut Down Normal - To turn the stove off, turn the heat selector knob to off. The fans will continue to operate until the control board completes the shut down cycle. Once you find a pellet brand that burns well, continue using this brand. High ash fuel increases the frequency of stove cleaning. Fuel with an excessive moisture content may jam the auger assembly. Corn Fuel Power Outage - If the stove loses electrical power for less than 10 seconds it will continue to operate.
Cleaning Glass Cleaning and Maintenance IMPORTANT CAUTIONS: • UNPLUG POWER CORD AND ENSURE APPLIANCE IS COLD BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE WORK. • Some brands of pellets produce more ash and clinkers than others. Therefore the frequency of performing the following cleaning procedures depends to a great degree on the quality of the pellets burned. • Not cleaning this unit will cause it to burn poorly and will void your warranty for this appliance.
Inspect Gaskets Inspect the condition of the rope gasket around the door, window and ash drawer, periodically, and replace if necessary. Inspect the die-cut gaskets on the access covers (B and C in Figure 45A) and replace if necessary. Cleaning the Heat Exchanger CAUTION: Do not operate the heat exchange scraper when the stove is hot. Located at the center of the grill on the top front of the stove is a bent rod that is attached to a scraper on the heat exchange tubes.
Cleaning the Vent Pipe Soot and Fly-Ash: Formation and Need for Removal The products of combustion will contain small particles of fly-ash. The fly-ash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the flow of the flue gases. Incomplete combustion, such as occurs during start-up, shutdown, or incorrect operation of the room heater will lead to some soot formation which will collect in the exhaust venting system.
Proof of Fire Switch This switch needs to be removed and cleaned after every 100 bags of fuel burned. Cleaning Procedure: 1. UNPLUG STOVE! 2. Locate the switch on the combustion blower (see Figure 52). 3. Using a flat-head screwdriver, remove the 2 screws which secures the switch to the blower housing. 4. Using a dry cloth, wipe off any flyash build-up on the sensor portion of the switch. 5. Reinstall switch.
Component Information Flue Outlet The following is a list of components and their functions. Igniter The Winslow™ PS40 stove comes equipped with an automatic igniter for lighting the fuel when the stove is in the lighting mode. The igniter superheats air that is pulled through the Burn-Pot by the combustion blower to light the fuel. The igniter remains energized for the first seven minutes of the lighting sequence.
Draft Adjuster A The Winslow™ PS40 stove has a draft adjuster located at the left side of the stove directly in front of the combustion blower. Should the stove installation require long runs of vent pipe, a situation may be created where excessive combustion air is flowing through the firebox and causing the fuel to burn faster than it can be delivered to the Burn-Pot. Should this happen, the draft can be slowed down by the adjuster. The stove is shipped with the adjuster in the fully open position.
Diagnostic Codes If the stove operates abnormally, the ready light on the control board will signal the nature of the abnormal operation.
Over Temperature Snap Switch Shuts Stove Down - Code - Ready light flashes red 2 long blinks Possible Problem Solution Convection blower not running Blower dirty, blower snap switch bad, or blower broken Flue passageways or vent restricted Clean passageways or vent pipe (see Pages 22 and 23) Snap switch* defective Replace the snap switch* * Note: The snap switch has a reset button that must be pushed before stove will function (see Page 25).
