BURNS.
• DO NOT USE GRATES OR ELEVATE THE FIRE. BUILD FIRE DIRECTLY ON HEARTH.
• DO NOT OVERFIRE - IF HEATER OR CHIMNEY CONNECTOR GLOWS, YOU ARE OVERFIRING.
• Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design specications can result in permanent

This heater is designed to burn only PFI Premium grade pellets. This appliance can also burn pellets rated as
standard after May 16, 2015
DO NOT BURN:
1. Garbage;
2. Lawn clippings or yard waste;
3. Materials containing rubber, including tires;
4. Materials containing plastic;
5. Waste petroleum products, paints or paint thinners,
or asphalt products;
6. Materials containing asbestos;
7. Construction or demolition debris;

9. Manure or animal remains;
10. Salt water driftwood or other previously salt water
saturated materials;
11. Unseasoned wood; or
12. Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or
particleboard. The prohibition against burning
these materials does not prohibit the use of re
starters made from paper, cardboard, saw dust,
wax and similar substances for the purpose of
starting a re in an affected wood heater.
Burning these materials may result in release of toxic fumes or render the heater ineffective and cause smoke.
PROPER FUEL
THIS STOVE IS APPROVED FOR BURNING PELLETIZED WOOD FUEL ONLY! Factory-approved pellets are those 1/4”
or 5/16” in diameter and not over 1” long. Longer or thicker pellets sometimes bridge the auger ights, which
prevents proper pellet feed. Burning wood in forms other than pellets is not permitted. It will violate the building
codes for which the stove has been approved and will void all warranties. The design incorporates automatic
feed of the pellet fuel into the re at a carefully prescribed rate. Any additional fuel introduced by hand will not
increase heat output but may seriously impair the stoves performance by generating considerable smoke. Do
not burn wet pellets. The stove’s performance depends heavily on the quality of your pellet fuel. Avoid pellet
brands that display these characteristics:
a. Excess Fines – “Fines” is a term describing crushed pellets or loose material that looks like sawdust or sand.
Pellets can be screened before being placed in hopper to remove most nes.
b. Binders – Some pellets are produced with materials to hold the together or “bind” them.
c. High ash content – Poor quality pellets will often create smoke and dirty glass. They will create a need for
more frequent maintenance. You will have to empty the burn pot plus vacuum the entire system more
often. Poor quality pellets could damage the auger. United States Stove Co. cannot accept responsibility
for damage due to poor quality pellets.
