Lighting
Open the door and squirt about two tablespoons of alcohol fire gel on the mound of wood
pellets in the middle of the firebox. Pellets will have funneled down from the hopper chute.
Light the alcohol fire gel with a match and close the door.
Open the (N) Damper below the door for the first ten minutes of a burn.
Standard burn time for the heater on one full hopper (25 lbs) is about 2.5 hours. You can extend this
burn time by adding pellets to the hoppers during the burn.
This stove is supplied with a slanted firepot to help burn hotter and longer, reducing the ash content
while burning. Clean the grate and slots by pulling the pull rod from the back of the stove and pushing
it back in. The rod should always be in the fully closed position while in operation.
Damper Control is both a temperature control as well as a combustion efficiency control. To reduce
the temperature of the stove by 250 degrees, open the damper to see slots. To increase temperature
by 250 degrees close damper fully seeing no slots. Opening the damper will also clean up
particulates (smoke) by increasing oxygen to fire.
If the heater runs out of fuel, do not attempt to refuel and light the heater before it has fully
cooled down (approx. 30 min). The unit will smoke excessively if attempted.
Storage
When you are finished using the heater you should make sure that the fire is completely out. Allow at
least 45 minutes for the heater to cool down before transporting.
Store the heater upright in a sheltered area away from inclement weather such as rain, snow and
dust.
This unit is manufactured as an “Outdoor Unit” from stainless steel. We recommend purchasing a
cover if you live in a particularly wet climate.
Maintenance
To obtain the best performance from your heater make sure you perform the following maintenance
activities on a regular basis:
After a burn and once the heater is completely cooled, clean out any remaining ashes from on top of
the firepot, in-between the bars and in the ash pan.
Keep exterior surfaces clean. Use warm soapy water for cleaning.
Never use flammable or corrosive cleaning agents on or near this heater.
Airflow through the spark arrester must be unobstructed, clean regularly with canned air.
Glass Cleaning
Only clean stove glass when the heater is off and fully cooled. Should a buildup of creosote or carbon
accumulate, we recommend wiping the windows down with a wet rag. If the glass still appears foggy,
a razor blade can be used to scrape away what remains. DO NOT operate the stove if the glass is
broken.
Caution:
Never burn stick wood or plastic or other combustibles in this heater. Burn only ¼” diameter wood
pellets. Never spray any cleaning product on or into any of the doors, air intakes, or dampers.
