Facilità d'uso
(AC-3100 for 4000+ ft. installations.) Must have minimum 3” adapter before tee for longer run. For shorter run (such as Masonry Connection below), tee alone is acceptable. Basement Installation should be performed by professional installer. Use 3” metal pipe and coupler for Outside Combustion Air. Minimum 3’ clearance from ground to the Pellet Vent Exhaust Pipe. Illustration 1 Freestanding Pellet InstallationCaution: Follow the pipe manufacturer’s installation instructions and directions for passing through combustible walls and ceilings. Check local codes in your area. FLOOR AND WALL PROTECTION Floor Protection If your floor is constructed of a non-combustible material such as brick or concrete, there is no need for floor protection. If the floor is constructed of a combustible material such as hardwood, linoleum, or carpet, then you will be required to use floor protection between the unit and the combustible. The protection should be U.L. approved or equal, and should be large enough to provide a minimum of six inches (6”) behind and on both sides of the stove. The clearance in front of the stove should be at least six inches (6”). This freestanding pellet unit will need a minimum 36” x 36” floor protector. Wall Protection From the rear and the sides of this stove only six inches (6”) of clearance is required to paneling, wallpaper or drywall. The pellet vent pipe would require the standard three inches (3”) clearance, or as recommended by the manufacturer. Normally additional wall protection is not required with this type unit. 8 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE WITH THE DOOR OPEN. If door is left open (approximately) two minutes, unit will stop feeding and fire will go out. Do not burn trash (paper bags, etc.) in this unit. This stove has an induced draft system and is designed to operate continuously, as frequent shutdown is not required. The digital control board operates the unit with a time delay-relay system; this system controls the top auger feed rate by operating for a predetermined number of seconds while the bottom auger runs constantly. The setting of the “Heat Range” touch pad will control the heat output and the amount of pellets the unit will burn (see “Control Board” section and Illustration 2). Note: This stove is using solid fuel and will not restart automatically. * NOTE: Blower Speed will automatically be adjusted to the desired Heat Range that you select. Horizontal Feed System This unit has a top and a bottom auger that are separated by four inches (4”); a 1-RPM motor drives each auger. The top auger drops pellets to the bottom auger tube, and the bottom auger pushes the pellets forward to the burn pot. This ensures there is no build-up of fuel in the bottom auger tube. As pellets enter the burn pot the combustion air is drawn across the fuel. START- UP PROCEDURE Caution - Never use gasoline, lantern fuel, charcoal lighter fluid, diesel fuel, or any other flammable liquid to start the fire. 1. Be sure the hopper is clean and free from foreign materials. Be sure there is current at your outlet (we do recommend a surge protector with our unit). 2. Before your first fire dry run your unit (with no pellets in the hopper) for 20 minutes. Press the “ON” button to begin the dry run. After the 20 minute dry run, the control board will return to “OFF.” An error code will appear in the Heat Range and the Blower Speed windows as “E-2,” which means the unit failed to start normally. After this code is received and you are sure the unit is working properly, fill the hopper with wood pellets. Do not allow any part of the bag or any foreign material in the hopper, as this may jam the augers. Ensure that all pellet matter is cleared from the hopper lid gasket, make sure the hopper lid latches and the door of the unit are securely closed and press the “ON” button; this will clear the error code and restart your unit. Start-Up When the “ON” button is pressed from a cold start, the unit is in “Start-Up” (after 3 seconds, there will be an “S U” in the Heat Range and Blower Speed windows to verify this). While in this mode, the unit has a preset heat range and will remain in this mode for 20 minutes to prevent the unit from over-firing. During this start-up period you can set the Control Board at the setting you desire; after the start-up is complete, the unit will run at the user setting. Manually Starting Your Unit If for some reason the unit does not ignite after pressing the “ON” button and going through the Start-up procedure, clean any pellets out of the burn pot (to prevent over-feeding), and manually start your unit. This may be done simply by placing a handful of new pellets in the burn pot, then spreading a small amount of pellet fire starter gel over the pellets and igniting them. After the pellets ignite, close the door to your unit and press the “ON” button (if the door is closed before the pellets fully ignite, the Exhaust Blower could put out the fire).
