APPENDIX C – FINE TUNING
Because of the variability of pellets (i.e., length
thickness, density, quality of sawdust), fine
tuning may be required for your heater to
compensate for pellet quality. Following are
some suggestions for fine tuning.
There are three (3) fine-tuning adjustment
components:
1.
The Trim Button located on the control plate
(see FIGURE 11) changes the feed rate on
each setting (i.e., Hi, Med, Low). Turning
the trim button clockwise will increase the
feed rate. Turning the trim counterclockwise
will decrease the feed rate. For example, if
the pellet being used is a hardwood pellet
and longer than 1”, then the stove could go
out on the low setting for lack of fuel. Turn
the trim clockwise to increase fuel and thus
sustain the fire.
2.
The Air Intake Damper control located on
the air intake module (see FIGURE 2)
regulates the amount of combustion air
being fed to the pellet fire pot. For example,
a high vertical
run of pipe (over 10’) will warm the pipe;
consequently, the draw can be intense
enough to suck more heat out of the stove
than is necessary. To make the stove run
efficiently, close the damper about 60% and
see if the heat output increases. If, the pellets
are not getting enough air, then opening the
air damper may help. Increasing the
combustion air utilizing the procedure in #3
may also help.
3.
The Fan Trim Pot Adjustment is located on
the circuit board (see FIGURE 15). Note the
two fan trim pots marked on the drawing
(lower left hand corner). Use a small slot
screwdriver to adjust fan speeds to
compensate for poor pellets or airflow. Turn
the trim pots clockwise to speed up the fan
speed on both Hi and Low settings. A good,
brisk flame that is yellow, not orange, is
what indicates a good burn.
