Starting First Fire

Igniter Switch to"AuTO"(up position)

 

Make sure the unit is plugged into a 120 VAC, 

60 HZ electrical source. The power light should be the 

only light lit.

To avoid unwanted smoke, be sure there is no fuel 

or combustibles in the ash pan prior to lighting.

1. 

Turn mode Selector to "OFF".

2. 

Fill hopper

 with pellets.

1

3. 

Clean burn pot 

with scraper, if necessary.

5

4.

  If  starting  after  an  empty  hopper,  turn  Feed 

Adjuster to "TEST" 

(for one 60 second cycle).

2  

This 

will purge pellets into the auger tube and also allow you 

to check the motors for operation. 

NOTE: The auger 

motor will not operate with the view door or ash 

pan door open.

5. 

Turn Feed Adjuster to #.

6. 

Flip  the  Igniter  Switch  up 

into  the  "AUTO" 

position.

7. 

Turn  the  Temperature  dial 

to  desired  room 

temperature.

8. 

Turn mode Selector

 to Room Temperature or Stove 

Temperature.

9. 

Fill  hopper 

with  pellets  and 

remove  ashes

  as 

required.

Automatic Start up

1. Fines are small pieces of broken pellets (sawdust). Fines do not 

flow easily and often build up on the hopper funnel bottom angles. 

These fines can be pushed into the feeder opening and then fill the 

hopper with pellets. As the system works, they will be burned.

2. The "TEST" cycle will operate the feeder motor for exactly one 

minute. Turning to "TEST" again and again may purge too much 

fuel into the burn pot causing excessive smoke on start-up.

3. The firebox low pressure switch will not allow the auger motor 

or the igniter element to operate if the view door or the ash pan 

door are open.

4. Adjust Feed Rate. If this is your first fire or you are trying different 

pellets, set the feed adjuster to #4, Fig. 1. This is a conservative 

number and will probably need to be increased. After you know a 

feed rate setting that works well, use that setting. Remember, if your 

feed rate is too high you may waste fuel.

5. This is usually a weekly maintence procedure. Cleaning the burn 

pot with the scraper with a small amount of new fuel in the bottom 

is not a problem. First, scrape the ashes on the front of the burn pot 

into the ash pan. Then scrape the holed surface downward into the 

burn pot. When the stove is ignited these scrapings will be pushed 

out by the feeder.

6. The ash pan can hold the ashes from approximately 1 ton of 

premium fuel. This means the ashes will only need to be emptied 

a few times a year.

7.  Setting  the  feed  adjuster  #  for  maximum  burn:  With  the  unit 

burning in "AUTO", turn to "Stove Mode" and put the fan on "H". 

Set the Temperature Dial to #7. Allow the unit to burn for about 30 

minutes and check ash on front of burn pot. Fig. 2. If the ash line is 

larger than 1", turn the feed adjuster from #4 to #5. Allow another 

30 minutes of burn time and check again. If , at #6 setting, a 1" or 

less ash bed is not obtainable, it is not a problem. The 1" ash bed 

is only a maximum burn rate and at most normal settings the ash 

bed will be larger.

"NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN 

FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID, OR 

SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR "FRESHEN UP " A 

FIRE  IN  THIS  HEATER.  KEEP ALL  SUCH  LIQUIDS 

WELL AWAY FROM THE HEATER WHILE IN USE".

battery back up

If a power outage is expected, switch the toggle switch 

to Manual Mode. The Harman 502H Battery Back Up 

is incapable of powering the igniter. If an automatic 

ignition is attempted while the stove is being powered 

by the battery back up, it may cause damage to both 

the stove and the battery back up unit. The Harman 

512H Battery Back Up will power ignition however, 

battery life is reduced.

CAuTION

The stove is hot while in operation.

Keep children, clothing and furniture away.  

Contact may cause skin burns.
