7086-171D • July 10, 2014 www.pelprostoves.com6
A. Fire Safety
To provide reasonable fire safety, the following should be
given serious consideration:
• Install at least one smoke detector on each floor of your
home.
• Install at least one carbon monoxide detector on each floor
of your home.
• Locate smoke detector away from the heating appliance
and close to the sleeping areas.
• Follow the smoke detector manufacturer’s placement and
installation instructions and maintain regularly.
• Followthecarbonmonoxidemanufacturer’splacementand
installation instructions and maintain regularly.
• Conveniently locate a Class A fire extinguisher to contend
with small fires.
• In the event of a hopper, creosote, or chimney fire:
• Evacuate the house immediately.
• Notify fire department.
B. Non-Combustible Materials
Material which will not ignite and burn, composed of any
combination of the following:
- Steel - Plaster
- Brick - Iron
- Concrete - Tile
- Glass - Slate
Materials reported as passing ASTM E 136, Standard
Test Method for Behavior of Metals, in a Vertical Tube
Furnace of 750° C.
C. Combustible Materials
Material made of/or surfaced with any of the following
materials:
- Wood - Compressed Paper
- Plant Fibers - Plastic
- Plywood/OSB - Sheet Rock (drywall)
Any material that can ignite and burn: flame proofed or not,
plastered or un-plastered.
D. Fuel Material and Fuel Storage
Pellet fuel quality can greatly fluctuate. We recommend that
you buy fuel in multi-ton lots whenever possible. However,
we do recommend trying various brands before purchasing
multi-ton lots to ensure your satisfaction.
Fuel Material
• Made from sawdust or wood by-products
• Depending on the source material it may have a high or
low ash content.
Higher Ash Content Material
• Hardwoods with a high mineral content
• Fuel that contains bark
• Standard grade pellets or high ash pellets
Fuel Material and Fuel Storage (Cont’d)
Lower Ash Content Material
• Most softwoods
• Fuels with low mineral content
• Most premium grade pellets
Clinkers
Minerals and other non-combustible materials such as sand
willturnintoahard, glass-likesubstance calleda clinkerwhen
heated in the firepot.
Trees from different areas will vary in mineral content. That
is why some fuels produce more clinkers than others.
Moisture
Alwaysburndry fuel. Burning fuelwith high moisturecontent
takes heat from the fuel and tends to cool the appliance,
robbing heat from your home. Damp pellet fuel can clog the
feed system.
Size
•
Pellets are either 1/4 inch or 5/16 inch (6-8mm) in diameter
• Length should be no more that 1-1/2 inches (38mm)
• Pellet lengths can vary from lot to lot from the same
manufacturer
• Due to length variations, the feed rate may need adjusting
occasionally
Performance
• Higherashcontent requiresthefirepot andtheash drawer
to be emptied more frequently
• Hardwoods require more air to burn properly
• Premium wood pellets produce the highest heat output
• Burningpelletslongerthan1-1/2inches(38mm)cancause
an inconsistent fuel feed rate and/or missed ignitions of
feed jams.
Storage
• Wood pellets should be left in their original sealed bag until
using to prevent moisture absorption
• Donotstoreanypelletfuelwithintheclearancerequirements
or in an area that would hinder routine cleaning and
maintenance
E. Before Your First Fire
1. First, make sure your appliance has been properly
installedandthat all safetyrequirementshave been met.
Payparticularattention to thefireprotection and venting.
2. Double check that the firebox is empty and the firepot is
in place!
3. Close and latch the door.
2 General Information

www.pelprostoves.com 7086-171D • July 10, 2014 7
A. User Dial Control
The appliance has one dial control located on the side of
the unit used for daily operation. There are four primary
settings on this dial.
1) OFF: When the dial indicator is in the off position
the unit will go into a shut down and remain off until the
dial is turned to one of the other three settings. The LED
will flash green once per second when in the off position.
2) LO : When the dial indicator is directed to the LO
setting the unit will burn on low until the hopper runs out
of pellets or the dial control is turned to a different set-
ting. When in this setting the LED will be amber in color
and continuously on. When burning in this mode, the
unit should be turned off at least once daily for clean-
ing. If lower quality fuels are used, additional daily shut
downs may be required for cleaning.
3) HI : Similar to the LO mode, the unit will run continu-
ously at the high burn rate until the unit has run out of
fuel or the dial is turned to a different setting. To operate
in this mode, turn the dial clockwise until it stops. When
in this setting the LED will be amber in color and contin-
uously on. Follow the daily cleaning recommendations
when operating in this mode. If lower quality fuels are
used, additional daily shut downs may be required for
cleaning.
4) COMFORT LEVEL : To burn in the Comfort Level
mode, turn the dial control clockwise to the desired
comfort level. When operating in the automatic mode,
the unit changes the burn setting based on the differ-
ence between the room temperature and the desired set
point. When burning in this mode the LED will be blink-
ing green. The number of green flashes corresponds
to the current setting. In other words, the unit will burn
on High if the difference between the desired and room
temperature is greater than 8 degrees Fahrenheit. As
the room heats up and the gap closes, the unit will
automatically reduce the burn rate. When the room
temperature is close to the set point the light will stop
flashing and stay solid green. at this time the stove will
be burning on the lowest burn rate. When the desired
temperature is achieved the unit will shut down. As the
room cools, the unit will restart automatically.
B. Filling the Hopper
Open the hopper lid by lifting the handle. The hopper lid
will open past ninety degrees and stay open automatically.
Fill the hopper with fuel. FOR USE WITH ONLY WOOD
PELLET FUEL. Close the hopper lid.
NOTE: The unit will not feed with the hopper lid open. If
left open, the fire will go out.
C. Priming the Feed Tube
Only if the hopper is being filled for the first time or the
unit had previously run out of pellets, the feed tube may
need to be primed. To do this, turn the dial control from
the OFF position to the HI position two times. This will run
the feed motor continuously for two minutes without turning
the igniter on. When the auger is running continuously,
the LED will be a continuous green color. The system will
run the auger for 2 minutes. When pellets start to drop into
the firepot, the feed tube is primed; turn the dial control
to the desired position and the stove will begin its ignition
sequence (The green LED will flash rapidly).

D. Firepot Purge
A feature of these pellet stoves is the firepot purge cycle.
The frequency of the cycle is once every half hour the unit
is burning. During this event, the feed is reduced to the
lowest setting and the exhaust blower ramps up to the
highest setting. The purpose of the purge cycle is to help
remove debris from the firepot and help the unit burn as
efficient as possible. The cycle lasts 99 seconds. Please
be aware that the purge does not replace daily cleaning
activities but makes them easier.
E. Shutdown
To shut the appliance down, turn the dial control counter
clockwise to the OFF position. During the shutdown pro-
cess, the LED will flash green rapidly just like the ignition
sequence. The firepot burn down cycle will begin but with-
out the feed motor running. The feed will be terminated
during this shutdown process. The exhaust and convection
blowers will remain on during the shutdown process until
the exhaust has cooled.
If maintenance or daily cleaning is going to be conducted
immediately following a shutdown, please use caution as
components especially those inside the firebox may still be
hot.
Please note that if the dial control is turned to the off
position and back on, even if by mistake, the unit will
go through the shutdown sequence.
F. Starting Your First Fire
1) Turn the dial control to “OFF”.
2) Make sure the firepot is clean, inplace, and free of
debris.
3) Plug the unit into the wall and fill the hopper with
wood pellets. Shut the hopper lid.
4) Turn the dial control to the desired burn setting.
The unit will go into the ignition sequence (The green LED
will flash rapidly). The ignition sequence involves the
exhaust blower turning on, the igniter turning on, and the
feed motor running in two stages. The first stage involves
the feed motor running continuously for about a minute to
preload pellets into the firepot. Following the preload and
a delay, the feed motor will begin cycling on and off. When
the pellets are warming up and on the verge of igniting, it
is not uncommon for the firebox to fill with smoke. Once
ignition actually happens, the smoke should evacuate
quickly. During this stage as well as any part during the
burn process, the front door should not be opened. This
cycle continues until the unit senses ignition by a rise in
the exhaust temperature or the unit times out. Following
the ignition cycle the unit begins to feed additional pellets
gradually for a few minutes to build up the fire.
G. Fire Characteristics
The overall height of the flame will vary throughout the
burn for a couple of reasons. First is that the flame will
vary based on type of fuel or even batch of fuel. Secondly,
the unit adjusts the burn rate according to the how far
away the room temperature is from the set temperature.
This should not cause alarm. The third characteristic that
affects the fire relates to general maintenance and clean-
ing. Infrequent or poor general maintenance will result is
poorer performance. Indicators of the need for additional
maintenance activities include a lazy flame, black sooted
glass, pellets not igniting, or pellets falling to the side of the
firepot. See the maintenance section for additional infor-
mation.
Odors and vapors released during initial operation.
• Curing of high temperature paint.
• Open windows for air circulation.
Odors may be irritating to sensitive individuals.
CAUTION
Priming the Feed Tube (Cont’d)
A FIREPOT THAT IS MORE THAN HALF FULL IS OVER-
FILLED. DO NOT OVERFILL FIREPOT FOR IGNITION.
If there are excessive pellets in the firepot the starts will
be extremely smoky and cause an unstable ignition that
includes but not limited to rumbling and whistling.

main dial control.
If the fire is too large, lazy or producing black soot, rotate
the dial counterclockwise one level at a time and allow 15
minutes for stabilization before making another adjustment.
If your fire is too small and sometimes goes out when there
are pellets in the hopper, rotate the dial clockwise one
level at a time and allow 15 minutes for stabilization before
making another adjustment.
J. Ignition Cycles
1. At the beginning of each ignition cycle, it is normal to see
some smoke in the firebox. The smoke will stop once
the fire starts.
2. The convection blower will automatically turn on after
your appliance has been burning for approximately 10
minutes.
This blower transfers heat from your appliance into the
room, and will continue to run even after the unit has
shutdown. It will turn off after the exhaust temperature
has cooled.
3. Occasionally the appliance may run out of fuel and shut
itself down. When this happens the empty hopper alarm
will be triggered.
K. Running in Minimum or Maximum
When the dial control is set to run on the LO or HI setting,
the appliance will continue to run without regard to the
actual temperature in the room. The appliance will shut off
only if the dial control is set to a different setting or there is
an error such as an empty hopper.
When running on LO or HI it is important to follow the daily
cleaning activities especially cleaning the firepot. Failure to
do so will reduce the performance of the appliance.
L. Running in the Comfort Level Mode
When the dial control is set to run in the automatic mode
the unit will adjust the actual burn rate based on the
difference between the room temperature as sensed by the
probe located in the rear of the unit and the desired comfort
level as set on the dial control.
The comfort level range is from approximately 65 degrees
Fahrenheit to 82 degrees Fahrenheit.
Once the desired comfort level is achieved the appliance
will automatically shut down and turn off. When the
temperature in the room drops 3 degrees below the desired
comfort level, the appliance will automatically restart.
M. Clear Space
Mantel: Avoid placing candles and other heat-sensitive
objects on mantel or hearth. Heat may damage these objects.
NOTICE: Clearances may only be reduced by means ap-
proved by the regulatory authority having jurisdiction.

1. Types of Fuel
The type of fuel you are burning will dictate how often you
have to clean your firepot.
If the fuel you are burning has a high dirt or ash content, it
may be necessary to clean the firepot more than once a day.
Poor quality fuel will cause clinkers to form in the firepot. A
clinker is formed when dirt, ash or a non-burnable substance
is heated to 2000°F (1093°C) and becomes glass-like. See
section D following for more details on fuels with high ash
content.
Shock and Smoke Hazard
• Turn dial control to OFF, let appliance completely
cool and exhaust blower must be off. Now you can
unplug appliance before servicing.
• Smoke spillage into room can occur if appliance is not cool
before unplugging.
• Risk of shock if appliance not unplugged before servicing

7. Cleaning the Hopper
• Frequency: Monthly or after burning 25 bags of fuel
• By: Homeowner
After burning approximately 25 bags of fuel you will
need to clean the hopper to prevent sawdust build-up.
Acombination of sawdust and pellets on the bottom end
of the auger reduces the amount of fuel supply to the
firepot or cause the feed system to jam. This can result
in nuisance shutdowns and mis-starts.
a. The appliance must be in complete shutdown.
Allow the appliance to completely run out of pellets
and cool down.
b. Empty the hopper of any remaining pellets.
c. Vacuum the hopper and feed tube. To access the
feed tube remove the four screws from the auger
cover located inside of the hopper.

cally for heating appliances.
13. Soot and Fly Ash: Formation & Need for Removal
in Exhaust Venting System.
• Frequency: Yearly or more frequently depending on
ash build-up.
• By: Qualified Service Technician/Homeowner
Besurethe applianceisallowed tocool,has beenunplugged
and the exhaust blower is off.
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.
At start-up if there is incomplete combustion, or if there is a
shutdown or incorrect operation of the appliance it will lead
to some soot formation. This will collect in the exhaust vent-
ing system.
The venting (chimney) system may need to be cleaned at
least once a year or more often depending upon the qual-
ity of your fuel or if there are any horizontal pipe sections.
Ash will build up more quickly in the horizontal sections and
elbows.
11. Cleaning Exhaust Blower - Requires No
Lubrication
• Frequency: Yearly or more frequently depending on
ash build-up
• By: Homeowner or Qualified Service Technician
a. Be sure the appliance is allowed to cool, has been

D. High Ash Fuel Content Maintenance
• Frequency: As needed
• By: Homeowner
Conditions that make the firepot fill quickly with ashes and
clinkers and require higher maintenance for the appliance
include:
· Poor quality pellet fuel.
· Lack of maintenance.
· Trim Dial is set to a less than optimum setting.
This condition makes the appliance susceptible to overfilling
the firepot with pellets which may result in smoking, soot-
ing and possible hopper fires. The figure below shows an
example where the firepot overfills, pellets back up into the
feed tube and ash has accumulated in the firebox.
An inefficient and non-economical method of burning of fuel
caused by poor quality pellet fuel is shown below.
If the ash buildup exceeds the half way point in the firepot
IMMEDIATE ATTENTION AND CLEANING IS REQUIRED.

E. Frequently Asked Questions
What causes my glass to become dirty?
If the glass has white ash build up it is normal and the
glass should be cleaned. If it is a black soot build up airflow
thru the unit may be restricted. The most often cause is
overdue maintenance and cleaning. See “Maintaining and
Servicing Appliance” in the owner’s manual and/or make
adjustments to the trim control.
How can I get more heat out of the appliance?
The most often cause of diminished heat output is overdue
maintenance and cleaning . See “Maintaining and Servic-
ing Appliance” in the owner’s manual.
What should I do if I smell smoke or there is ash/
soot coming from the appliance?
While there will always be some smoke smell from wood
burning appliances (including pellet) you should investigate
all venting to make sure it is sealed properly. Most venting
requires high-temperature silicone to seal the seams. In
addition most homes are built very tight today and exhaust
systems can create negative pressure in the home. See
“Negative Pressure” under “Getting Started” in the owner’s
manual if you have checked the venting but still have
smoke coming from the appliance. For ash or soot check
the above and the exhaust blower housing and seals.
Why would my appliance run fine last winter but not
start this fall?
It is possible that the stove was not properly prepared for
the Non-burn season. See “Troubleshooting” in the owner’s
manual.
Why would the metal on the inside of the appliance
begin to flake?
There are some pellet mills that get their raw materials
from lumber mills that purchase logs that are transported
in sea water. These pellets can have a higher salt content
and cause the metals in the unit to corrode prematurely
and deteriorate. If you are seeing any components inside
the firebox deteriorate it is recommended to change pellet
brands immediately.
Is there a place to lubricate the blowers to quiet
them down?
The most often cause of noisy blowers is from the impel-
lers becoming dirty over time. See “General Maintenance &
Cleaning” under “Maintaining & Servicing Appliance” in the
owner’s manual. No form of lubrication should ever need
applied to the blowers.
What is the metal object with the bend in it for that
came inside the plastic bag?
It is a clean-out tool used to help clean the firepot and
remove any jams in the rare event they occur in the feed
tube.
Why is there a black residue building up on the out-
side of my home?
Wind can cause this to happen. If the appliance is operat-
ing correctly very little soot should ever exit the termination
cap. Also check to be sure the venting is installed per the
owner’s manual and local codes.
Do I need an outside air kit?
Outside air is required for mobile home installs and in
some jurisdictions. Refer to “Listing & Code Approvals”,“
Mobile Home Installation” and “ Appliance Set-up” owner’s
manual. Also refer to local building codes.
I am seeing sparks coming out of my pipe (termina-
tion cap) outside is this safe?
This is normal. As long as clearances to combustibles
were followed this is safe.
I have no power to anything. Does this unit have a
circuit breaker or fuse or a reset button?
If the control board fuse is blown, the circuit board will
need to be replaced – refer to the service section for
replacement.
Can I burn corn in my unit?
NO, corn is not an approved fuel.
Where is the serial # of my unit is located?
The serial # is located on the back of the stove.
