By pressing the “Room Fan” buttons, the display will show “Rf- A” which is automatic or how many fans are running. The “Aux” button is for Agitator operation. When the unit is “OFF”, pressing the “Aux” arrows will rotate the agitator for easy removal for cleaning. The agitator, when in Automatic mode, will operate at set intervals. However, these can be changed by pressing the arrows on the “Aux” button. The agitator can be adjusted from 0 to 9, setting “0” is off and setting “9” is high. The “Auger Delay” button can be used to pause rotation of the Auger and Agitator for approx. 1 minute. This can be cancelled by pressing the “ON” button. The “Mode” button is used to switch between manual and automatic mode. When in auto mode, the fans, auger, and agitator will operate at preset intervals unless changed manually using the buttons mentioned above. When in manual mode, the draft fan (exhuast) will operate at full speed (100%), so the air must be controled with the damper just below the viewing door. During normal operation, the unit is constantly monitored for problems. In the event of an error condition, the unit will stop and an error will be displayed. See the list of error codes found at the end of this manual. Operation Operation Operation UNIT PREPARATION After carefully unpacking and reading the instructions for installing your furnace, you will need to perform the following steps: 1.) Attach the included spring handle to the door handle by screwing it on in a respective location. 2.) Attach the electrical cord to the back of the furnace first; then plug it into a 110-volt outlet (an outlet surge protector is highly recommended). START-UP PROCEDURE • ..........Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or “freshen up” a fire in this furnace. Keep all such liquids well away from the furnace while it is in use. 1.) Verify that the hopper is clean and free of foreign matter. 2.) Verify that all of the required exhaust/inlet connections have been made in accordance with this manual and that the furnace is plugged into an outlet (an outlet surge protector is highly recommended). 3.) Fill the hopper with fuel; do not allow any part of the bag or any other foreign material into the hopper, as this may jam the auger. Ensure that all fuel matter is cleared from the hopper seating surface. Close the hopper lid. 4.) Make sure that the furnace is in the “OFF” mode and place a small handful of wood pellets or fire starter pellets (Pellets that already contain fire starter.) in the burnpot. Squirt a small amount of fire starter gel on the pellets. (Not needed if using fire starter pellets.) Light the fire then wait approx. 1 minute for the fire to start burning the pellets. NOTE: Even if you are burning corn, wood pellets make an excellant source of starter fuel. 5.) Close the viewing door then press the “ON” button on the control pad and set the “HEAT SETTING” to Hr-1. It is a good idea to start at a lower setting to allow the fire to stabilize, then adjust to higher settings. 6.) The damper located on the front of the unit can be adjusted for optimum performance. Whether using wood pellets or corn, small adjustments to the damper can make a big difference. When adjusted properly, there should be very minimal amount of ash in the burn chamber. This also depends on the quality of the fuel used. When burning corn, set the damper to the mid postion. (approx. 12 o’clock position) 7.) Fuel will start feeding after three(3) minutes First Fire: Adjust the “HEAT RANGE” and “BLOWER SPEED” to a medium setting and allow the furnace to operate in this manner for approximately three (3) hours (or more if necessary), allowing the furnace to “cure out” as the paint and oils from the manufacturing process burn off. We recommend that you open doors and windows in your home during this process. SHUT DOWN PROCEDURE WARNING: Never shut down this unit by unplugging it from the power source. Press the “OFF” button on the control panel to put the furnace in shut down mode. At this time, the red light above the “OFF” button will illuminate. Once this is done, the auger will stop feeding fuel, but the room air blower(s) and draft fan will continue to operate. When the internal temperature of the unit drops below the factory preset temperatures, the room air blowers and draft fans will cease to operate. The red light will then shut off and the unit will be completely shut down. The hotter the unit is during its operation, the longer it will take for the furnace to complete the shut down cycle. If the furnace stays on for more than 2 hours after pressing the “OFF” button and you are sure that the fire is out, the furnace can be unplugged from the outlet. After approximately 10 seconds, the unit can be re-connected to the power source and the control board will be reset. 14 USSC Operation Operation DAILY OPERATION • ..........
