6. Turn heat gun down to the low setting and continue
to run until the stove reaches 400 degrees, this will
happen rapidly after ignition of the pellets.
7. Remove, turn o and store your heat gun.
8. Reinstall the primary chamber end slide.
CONTROLLING THE TEMPERATURE
OPEN
Because the damper slide is located behind the
combustion chamber, adjusting the temperature is
the opposite of a traditional wood stove. To adjust the
damper slide: turn handle counter clockwise one half turn
then slide to the desired position and retighten. The open
position will reduce the draft and slow the stove down
much like a crack in a drinking straw. Closing the damper
will increase higher temperatures and heat output.
CAUTION:
DO NOT OVER LOOSEN THE DAMPER SLIDE
HANDLE! THIS MAY CAUSE THE HANDLE TO
SEPARATE FROM THE DAMPER PLATE.
TUNING YOUR STOVE
After your stove is installed and ready for use there will
be a period of time where some adjustments may be
necessary to fit your specific needs from the stove. We
like to refer to this as “getting to know your stove”. Each
stove demonstrates its own unique personality based
upon; type of pellet fuel, elevation, square footage you are
heating, barometric pressures, common wind currents,
natural drafts within your home to name a few. Specifically
this means learning how often you will need to dump
ashes, clear the secondary burn plate, experiment with
dierent brand pellets and determining what position the
damper slide needs to be in to get your specific desired
results. After you have become familiar with the stove
it is possible that you may need to adjust the primary
burn basket. The primary burn basket that comes with
every stove is sent out at a preset measurement. This
measurement fits most applications but sometimes a
user will need to make an adjustment. This is simple to
perform; we find the best tools for widening the basket
are two chisels. For narrowing the spacing use a pair of
pliers. The three black arrows indicate the three spaces
where pellets drop through the basket and on to the
secondary burn plate. The minimum spacing should not
be adjusted to less than 0.290, or on a tape measure the
closest mark would be just under the 19/64”mark.
The maximum adjustment should not exceed 0.320, or
just over the 5/16” mark on a tape measure. Only make
small adjustments at a time as you will discover a small
