Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of Hearthstone’s Manchester pellet fired stove. The Manchester Pellet stove
incorporates the latest in pellet burning technology providing you with clean, efficient heat for years to come.
Your decision to purchase a Hearthstone Manchester Pellet stove reflects a choice to purchase a premium
product and a technology which is carbon neutral, meaning that operation of this stove will not introduce any
“new” CO2into our atmosphere and minimizes your carbon footprint.
Burning pellets produces essentially the same amount of CO2 that the same amount of wood decomposing in
the forest would produce. Purchase of this product illustrates forward thinking and the thoughtfulness to
purchase an environmentally responsible product.
Pellet fuel is proven to provide the cleanest burn of any solid fuel, exhausting an average well below the United
States EPA wood burning limit. Your Hearthstone Manchester Pellet stove is certified at 1.3g/hr of particulate
emissions, well below the EPA standard of 7.5 g\hr, making your stove not only beautiful, but extremely clean
burning and efficient as well. This is because the combustion air is closely monitored and modulated by our on-
board computer, which optimizes the burn efficiency.
If you have any questions, comments or concerns please contact your local Hearthstone authorized dealer.
They are certified industry professionals and should always be consulted on the installation and operation of
your Hearthstone appliance for premium performance and trouble free operation and installation.
Hearthstone Quality Home Heating Products offers the best warranty in the industry. Satisfied customers are
our top priority.

TURN OFF THE STOVE AND THOROUGLY CLEAN ALL STOVE AREAS AS PER MAINTENANCE DIRECTIONS.
WHEN OPERATING NORMALLY, THIS APPLIANCE COULD TRIGGER SMOKE DETECTORS INSTALLED TOO
CLOSE TO THE UNIT.
Loading Pellets
Lift the hopper door vertically until fully opened, open secondary hopper door; add pellets into hopper until full.
In order to maximize hopper capacity, push pellets into void spaces. With all voids full, maximum hopper
capacity is approximately 50 lbs of pellets. To reduce the introduction of fines, or spillage, we recommend the
use of a secondary container to add pellets. Clean up any pellets spilled on, or down inside the stove.
Store pellets in a dry location, and outside the required clearances to combustibles of the heater.
NOTES:
WARNING! TOP GRILL AND FRONT EDGE OF STOVE CAN BECOME VERY HOT, AVOID ALL CONTACT WITH
HEATED SURFACES
IF THE HOPPER DOOR IS LEFT OPEN, A CAP OPEN MESSAGE WILL SHOW ON THE DISPLAY. AN OPEN
HOPPER DOOR WILL AUTOMATICALLY STOP FUNCTION OF THE FEED AUGER AND IGNITOR, AS THE AUGER
POSES A HAZARD TO FINGERS DURING OPERATION. TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS MESSAGE, SIMPLY CLOSE
THE HOPPER DOOR.
All operations of the stove are initiated from the User Interface pad. This pad is designed to provide simple,
user-friendly operation of the stove. There are only four buttons on the interface pad, Power (On/Off), MENU,
+, -. During normal operation, the interface screen will illuminate red. When the unit is in OFF mode, but power
is supplied, the pad will display its operational state without the red backlighting. If an error is detected, an error
message is displayed, and the readout will flash.
