Acombustionblowerisusedtoextractthecom-
bustiongasesfromthefirebox.Thiscausesanega-
tivepressureinthefireboxandapositivepressure
intheventingsystemasshowninfig.6.Thelonger
theventpipeandmoreelbowsusedinthesystem,
thegreatertheflowresistance.Becauseofthese
factswerecommendusingasfewelbowsaspos-
sibleand15feetorlessofventpipe.Themaximum
horizontalrunshouldnotexceed48".Ifmorethan
15feetofpipeisneeded,thediametershouldbe
increasedfrom3"to4"becausealargerpipecauses
lessflowresistance.Besuretouseapproved
pelletventpipewallandceilingpassthrough
fittingstogothroughcombustiblewallsand
ceilings.Besuretouseastartingcollartoattach
theventingsystentothestove.Thestartingcollar
mustbesealedtothestovewithhightempsili-
conecaulking.
VentPipe
Pelletventingpipe(alsoknownasPLvent)is
constructedoftwolayerswithairspacebetween
thelayers.Thisairspaceactsasaninsulatorand
reducestheoutsidesurfacetemperaturetoallowa
clearancetocombustiblesofonly3inches.The
sectionsofpipelocktogethertoformanairtightseal
inmostcases;however,insomecasesaperfect
sealisnotachieved.Forthisreasonandthefact
thattheP61operateswithapositiveventpressure
wespecifythatthejointsalsobesealedwith
clearsilicone.
OutsideAir
Outsideairisoptionalexceptinmobilehomes
andwherebuildingcodesrequire.Thebenefitof
outsideairismainlynoticedinsmallverytight
houses.
Toinstalloutsideairuse23/8"I.D.flexpipe
partnumber2-00-08543.Thereisabreak-awayhole
ontherearpanelwhichmustberemovedbefore
connectingtheflexpipe.Thepipeshouldberunout-
sideandterminatetothesideorbelowtheventpipe
outletsotheflueoutletismorethan12"fromthe
inletcover.Themaximumlengthrunofthispipeis
15feet.Ifalongerrunisneededthesizemustbe
increasedto3".Inletcoverpartnumber1-10-08542
shouldbeusedtokeepbirds,rodentsetc.outofthe
pipe.

Whentouse"StoveTempMode"
In"StoveTempMode"theStoveTempDialde-
terminesthetemperatureofthestove.Heatoutput
andfuelconsumptionwillremainconstant.This
makesitpossibletotellhowlongahopperfullof
pelletswilllast.Thedistributionblowerspeedwill
varyaccordingtothepositionofthemodeselector,
fig.21.
Whentouse"RoomTempMode"
In"RoomTempMode"heatoutputiscontrolled
automaticallybytheRoomSensingProbe.When
theRoomSensingProbecallsforheat,thestove
willincreaseoutput.WhentheRoomSensingProbe
isgettingclosetothesettemperature,thestovewill
begintoleveloffoutputandkeepthefireburningat
justtherighttemperaturetomaintainthatsetting.
Highoutputisdeterminedbythefeedrate.The
maximumfeedrateshouldbesetfor1"ofashin
frontoffire.
In"RoomTempMode"fuelconsumptionissac-
rificedforexactroomtemperature.Therefore,asit
getscoldermorepelletswillbeburnedautomati-
cally.
Thedistributionblowerspeedwillvaryaccord-
ingtothepositionofthemodeselector,fig.21.
Shut-DownProcedure
Tokillthefireorstopburningthestove,turnthe
ModeSelectorto"OFF".Thiswillcausethefireto
diminishandburnout.Whenthefireburnsoutand
thestovecoolsdowneverythingwillstop.
Ifyoupulltheplugtoshutdownthestove,all
motorswillstop.Thismaycauseincompletecom-
bustionandsmokeinthefirebox.Iftheloaddooris
openedthesmokemayescape.
Thebestwaytoshutdownthestoveissimply
letitrunoutofpellets,thenthestovewillshutdown
automatically.
Thissettingwillproducemediumheatwiththe
distributionbloweron"low".
Thissettingwillproducearoomtemperatureof70
degreeswiththedistributionbloweratmediumspeed.

Theroomsensorisasmalltemperaturesen-
sorontheendofa60"graywire.Thissensoris
installedmuchlikeastandardwallthermostat.Be-
causeitissosmall,itcanbehiddenalongthetrim
ofadoorwayorevenupthelegofacoffeetable.
Thereisaremoteroomsensorportontherearof
theunitforeasyexternalconnection.Usestandard
18-2thermostatwiretoextendthedistancetothe
desiredlocation(100'maximum).Theroomsen-
sorshouldbeinstalledinthelocationwhereyouwant
tocontrolthetemperature.
NOTE:Distancesofmorethan25feetfrom
theunitorinanotherroomarenotrecommended.
TheroomsensorisessentialfortheP61'sexcel-
lentefficiency.
NOTE:Itisrecommendedthattheroom
sensorbeinstalled,evenifonlyinstalledonthe

RemovingAshes:
Whenapproximatly1tonofpelletshasbeen
burneditwillbenecessarytoemptytheashpan.
Ashesshouldbeplacedinametalcon-
tainerwithatightfittinglid.Theclosedcon-
tainerofashesshouldbeplacedonanon-
combustiblefloororontheground,wellaway
fromallcombustiblematerials,pendingfinal
disposal.Ifashesaredisposedofbyburialin
soilorotherwiselocallydispersed,they
shouldberetainedintheclosedcontainer
untilallcindershavethoroughlycooled.
Itisrecommendedthatthestoveiscoldand
shutdownwhenremovingashpan.
1.Pullonlatchhandlesandremoveashpanas
shownatleft.Useashpanhandletocarry
anddisposeofashes.
2.Slidetheashpanbackintothestoveand
latchbypushinginonbothlatchessimulta-
neously.
Cleaning:
Thestovewillneedtobecleanedforapproxi-
matelyevery2to5tonsofpelletsburned.The
amountofpelletsburnedbeforecleaningwillvary
dependingonthebrandofpellets.
1.Shutdownstoveanddisconnectpower
cordtoinsurethatallmotorsarestopped.
2.Removeashpanasdescribedearlier.
3.Removecombustionblowercoverbyturning
thelatchverticalasshowninFig.26and
slidingthecoveroutoftheslotontheleft
Fig.27.Thiswillexposethecombustion
blowerwheelandflueoutlet,Fig.24.
4.Cleantheblowerwheelwithabrushanda
vacuumcleaner.
5.Useabrush(Fig.30)tocleantheflue,being
carefulnottodamagetheESPprobe.The
fluegoesstraightthroughintotheventpipe
(Fig.29)therefore,theventpipecanalsobe
cleanedtosomeextentthroughtheflue
outlet.

SootandFlyAsh
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.Incom-
pletecombustion,suchasoccursduring
startup,shutdown,orincorrectoperation
oftheroomheater,willleadtosome
sootformationwhichwillcollectinthe
exhaustventingsystem.Theexhaust
ventingsystemshouldbeinspected
atleastonceeveryyeartodetermine
ifcleaningisnecessary.

CleaningBurnPot
Wheneveryourstoveisnotburning,takethe
opportunitytoscrapetheburnpottoremovecarbon
buildup.Avacuumcleanerishandytoremovethe
residue.Besurethestoveiscoldifyouusea
vacuum.
Carbonbuildupcanbescrapedloosewiththe
fireburningusingthespecialtoolprovidedwithyour
stove.Scrapethefloorandsidesoftheburnpot.
Thecarbonwillbepushedoutbytheincomingfuel.
Alwayswearglovestodothis.
RemovingAshes
TurntheStoveTempDialtonumber1approxi-
mately30minutesbeforeremovingashes.Thiswill
resultinacoolerstoveandashpan.
MaximumTurbosettingsarenotneededin
mostcases.Operatinginthenormalrangeisrec-
ommendedwhenmaximumheatoutputisnotre-
quired.TheESPprobepreventsthestovefrombe-
ingover-fired.
Keepthestovefreeofdustanddirt.
HelpfulHints
Fuel
Pelletfuelsareputinto3categoriesintermsofashcontent.Premiumat1%orless,Standardat3%
orlessandallothersat3%ormore.
TheP61iscapableofburningall3categoriesofpelletsduetoapatentedfeederandburnpot
system.
Itshouldbenoted,however,thathigherashcontentwillrequiremorefrequentashremovalandmay
providelessBTU'sperlb.Normally,standardandhighashpelletscostlessthanpremiumpelletsandcan
becosteffectivewhenburnedintheP61.
Themoisturecontentmustnotexceed8%.HighermoisturewillrobBTU'sandmaynotburnproperly.
