TO PREVENT INJURY OR DAMAGE TO THE HEATER, ALWAYS UN-

4.9 Damper Control
The damper control rod is located on the left side of the heater. This rod controls the
amount of air passing through the burn pot. By pushing the control rod in, you reduce
the amount of air passing through the burn pot. By pulling the rod out, you will increase
the amount of air passing through the burn pot. Once properly set, you should not need
to adjust the damper. The
MX2
TM
control will automatically change the exhaust fan speed
to adjust the amount of combustion air needed for each heat setting. A typical damper
setting is between 5/8” (15 mm) to 3/4” (20 mm) from the fully pushed in position.
4.10 Starting (lighting) your Heater for the First Time
Read the following instruction completely before attempting to light your heater for the
first time. This method applies to all modes of operation (“AUTO, HIGH/LOW,
“MANUAL”). For “AUTO” mode, use thermostat or other switching device in lieu of
“ON/OFF” button.
Once your heater is properly installed, complete the following steps to light it for the
first time or whenever your heater runs out of fuel:
1. Fill the hopper with pellet fuel. At this time the auger tube is empty. It
needs to be filled before the heater can be operated properly.
2. Press the “ON/OFF” button; The “ON/OFF” light and the “AUGER”
light should begin to blink. The motors should also begin to turn.
3. Adjust the HEAT SELECT setting to the desired level.
4. Press and hold the “AUGER” button; the “AUGER” light should light
and stay lit until the button is released.
5. Continue to hold the “AUGER” button until fuel begins to drop into the
burn pot (located inside the burn chamber, see “Stove Cross Section”
diagram for exact location). This may take several minutes. If the heater
turns OFF before fuel begins to drop into the burn pot, repeat steps 2, 3
and 4.
6. Release the “AUGER” button once pellet fuel begins to drop.
7. Monitor the burn pot. A flame should appear within 5 to 8 minutes.
Allow the flame to stabilize. IN THE EVENT YOUR HEATER SHUTS
OFF BEFORE THE FLAME IS STABLE or if a flame does not appear;
press the “ON/OFF” button once again Refer to the “Adjusting your
Heater” section for more information on operating your heater properly.
