LIGHTING PROCEDURE STARTUP CHECKLIST 2 A B C D 1 3 The COMBUSTION FAN (exhaust) will start and operate at full speed for 60 seconds, then will slow to match the startup rate On a primed auger system , pellets will begin to fall into the BURN GRATE, and the igniter will automatically ignite pellets in approximately 3 to 7 minutes.
INITIAL SETUP 1 2 Slide open or close the damper as needed to obtain a fire that is brisk enough to carry ash out of the grate, but not so brisk that it carries whole pellets out as well; this is known as popcorning . Normally, you should find that the damper will need to be 1/4” to 1/2” open.

The performance of your pellet appliance is greatly affected by the type and quality of wood pellets burned. As the heat output of various brands of pellets differs, so will the performance and heat output of your appliance. We recommend the use of screened pellet fuel in order to reduce the amount of fines your stove will have to cope with.
NOTE: It is much easier to remove fines from pellets before they are placed in the stove than it is to service your stove for a plugged hopper, jammed auger or plugged exhaust system. Pellets with excessive sawdust may be screened to remove most of the fines.
ASH TRAPS - Remove the rear burn plate from the firebox area. This will expose the 2 ash traps and the pellet fuel drop chute. Fly ash may be removed by vacuuming inside the trap area with an approved ash vacuum ( A HOME SHOP VAC MAY BE USED TO REMOVE ASH FROM YOUR STOVE *ONLY* WHEN THE ASHES HAVE COOLED ).
INSPECT AND CLEAN VENTING - Fly ash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the flow of flue gases. Check the clean out tees and elbows in the system periodically to determine the required schedule of cleaning. To remove dust from the vent pipe, lightly tap on the pipe to dislodge loose ash.
GUIDE TO TROUBLESHOOTING Proper cleaning, maintenance and use of quality pellets will prevent common operational issues with your pellet stove. However, when your appliance is simply operating poorly or not at all, the following troubleshooting tips may be helpful.
