In the
M EDIUM
position the EASYFIRE will be feeding
approxim ately three (3) pounds of pellets per hour and
the flam e will fluctuate between 3" and 8" of fire.
D.
In the

G. REM EM BER:
Each feed position will fluctuate
because the m icroprocessor is autom atically adjusting
the feed and air based on tem perature. This m eans
the pellet feed rate and flam e height will change
accordingly based on quality of pellet and heat loss of
dwelling.
3. Starting the Stove:
Push a Heat Range button (Low or
Medium is best for start up) (
Figure 13
) and turn the
therm ostat up to
“Call for heat”
. The stove fan will begin to
operate along with the ignitor cycle. After about a m inute
the pellets will begin to fall in the burn pot. After five
m inutes there will be a fire in the burn pot and the stove
will begin to heat up. W hen the stove reaches start up
operating tem perature it will then switch to the control
panel setting and begin it’s autom atic operation cycle.
Feed Trim Adjustment
Underneath the control button you will find a sm all round
button that will turn forward and reverse. This button can
adjust the feed m otor in the LOW operating position. By
turning the button clockwise you can increase the feed on
LOW and by turning it counterclockwise you can decrease
the feed in the LOW position. Factory setting is 9:00 o’clock.
Once the stove is at operating tem perature for one hour
set the stove on LOW . Adjust the trim button so that
average flam e is approx. 1-2" above the burn pot. This
w ill set the average feed rate (air/flue) for best
operation.
M ove this button carefully!
It is designed to fine tune your
LOW setting in the event you change brands of pellets
and/or live at a higher elevation. If this setting is to low the
stove m ay go out during LOW setting operations. If this
should happen increase the trim by sm all am ount.

Make sure hopper lid is fully closed. Open the front door
and fill the burn pot with a hand full of pellets.

Allow pellets to burn for approxim ately 1 m inute, or until
pellet ignition has been achieved.
Close door
and turn the
control knob to the
"FAN"
