8. 

Turn the mIN. TEmP. dial 

on the control board to the 

desired Minimum temperature. This will start the lighting 

process  if  the  temperature  at  the  aquastat  sensor  is 

approximately 5° F. less than the set temperature on the 

MAX TEMP. dial.

9. 

Fill hopper

 with pellets and 

remove ashes

 as required.

Type of Fuel 

- Use pelletized wood only. The lower the 

ash content of the pellets the less cleaning that will be 

needed of the heat exchanger tubes. The cleaner these 

tubes are kept, the more efficient the boiler will be.

NOTE: Do not burn garbage, gasoline, naphtha, engine 

oil, or other inappropriate materials in this appliance.

Store pellets in the manufacturer’s wrapping until needed 

to prevent pellets from absorbing moisture. do not store 

fuel within the appliance installation clearances, or within 

the space required for fueling, ash removal, and other 

routine maintenance operations.

Operation

lighting A Fire manually

Lighting the fire manually will not be necessary unless the 

ignition system fails.

Follow steps 1 through 5 of the instructions for automatic 

lighting.
6.

 

Flip the Igniter Switch down 

into the “MANUAL-LIGHT” 

position. See Fig. 12.

7.  Open the firebox door to access the burnpot.

8. Fill the burnpot with pellets as shown. 

See Fig. 14. 

Only fill level with the front edge.

 

( ------- dO NOT OvErFIll ------- )

9.  Have matches or other ignition source ready.

10. Turn mode Selector

 to desired MIN TEMP setting.

This will start the combustion blower and allow the ESP to 

control  the  fire  in  relation  to  the  MAX TEMP  Dial  setting. 

(The MAX TEMP dial setting must always be set above the 

MIN TEMP setting) Once the fire is well established the MAX 

TEMP dial can remain on any temperature setting desired.

durINg mANuAl OPErATION:
SPECIAl NOTE: when the Switch is set to manual ignite 

position, the boiler will function as in auto mode, except 

the fire will not be allowed to go out. It will only be allowed 

to go to a minimum burn rate between the times the 

aquastat is calling for heat. This rate is about 

1.1 pound

 

of fuel per hour. If used in manual mode, be sure there 

is an overheat dump in place. Note that if the overheat 

dump zone does not provide sufficient cooling, and the 

water temperature reaches 220 deg, the feed motor will 

be forced to shut off. because the unit is set on manual 

Ignition, it will not re-ignite when the water temperature 

cools below the settings.

Fig. 12

Fig. 13

Never attempt to start a fire if there is no power or if 

the combustion blower is not operating. 

Never open the hopper lid during a fire if there is no 

power or if the combustion blower is not operating.
