INSTALLATION
SAFETY WARNINGS & RECOMMENDATIONS
CAUTION:
Do not connect to any air distribution duct or system.
Do not burn garbage or fl ammable fl uids such as gasoline,
naptha or engine oil.
Unit hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns.
FUEL: This pellet stove is designed and approved to only burn wood
pellet fuel with up to 3% ash content. Dirty fuel will adversely affect the
operation and performance of the unit and may void the warranty. Check
with your dealer for fuel recommendations.
THE USE OF CORDWOOD IS PROHIBITED BY LAW.
SOOT: Operation of the stove with insuffi cient combustion air will result in
the formation of soot which will collect on the glass, the heat exchanger,
the exhaust vent system, and may stain the outside of the house. This is
a dangerous situation and is ineffi cient. Frequently check your stove and
adjust the slider/damper as needed to ensure proper combustion. See
"Slider/Damper Setting".
CLEANING: There will be some build up of fl y ash and small amounts of
creosote in the exhaust. This will vary due to the ash content of the fuel
used and the operation of the stove. It is advisable to inspect and clean
the exhaust vent semi-annually or every two tons of pellets.
ASHES: Disposed ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight
fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be on a non-combustible
floor on the ground, well away from all combustible materials pending
final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise
locally dispensed, they should be retained in the closed container until all
cinders have been thoroughly cooled.
ELECTRICAL: The use of a surge protected power bar is
recommended. The unit must be grounded. The grounded electrical
cord should be connected to a standard 115 volts (4.6 Amps), 60 hertz
electrical outlet. Be careful that the electrical cord is not trapped under
the appliance and that it is clear of any hot surfaces or sharp edges and
also must be accessible. If this power cord should become damaged, a
replacement power cord must be purchased from the manufacture or
a qualifi ed Greenfi re dealer. This unit's maximum power requirement is
520 watts.
SMOKE DETECTOR: Smoke detectors should be installed and
INSTALLATION
maintained in the structure when installing and operating a pellet burning
appliance.
OPERATION: The ash pan and door must be closed securely for proper
and safe operation of the pellet stove. Also ensure all gaskets on the door
are checked and replaced when necessary.
KEEP ASH PAN FREE OF RAW FUEL.
DO NOT PLACE UNBURNED OR NEW PELLET FUEL IN ASH PAN. A
FIRE IN THE ASH PAN MAY OCCUR.
INSTALLATION: Be sure to maintain the structural integrity of your
home when passing a vent through walls, ceilings, or roofs. It is
recommended that the unit be secured into its position in order to avoid
any displacement.
DO NOT INSTALL A FLUE DAMPER IN THE EXHAUST VENTING
SYSTEM OF THIS UNIT.
DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING
ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
FRESH AIR: Outside Fresh Air connection is optional. Must be
connected to all units installed in Mobile and “Air Tight Homes” (R2000)
or where required by local codes. Consider all large air moving devices
when installing your unit and provide room air accordingly. Limited air
for combustion may result in poor performance, smoking and other side
effects of poor combustion.
If you have any questions with regards to your stove or the abovementioned information, please feel free to contact your local dealer for
further clarification and comments.
SINCE FPI HAS NO CONTROL OVER THE INSTALLATION OF YOUR
STOVE, FPI GRANTS NO WARRANTY IMPLIED OR STA TED FOR THE
INSTALLATION OR MAINTENANCE OF YOUR STOVE. THEREFORE,
FPI ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGE(S).
GLASS: Do not abuse the glass by striking or slamming the door. Do not
attempt to operate the stove with broken glass. The stove uses ceramic
glass. Replacement glass must be purchased from an Greenfire dealer.
Do not attempt to open the door and clean the glass while the unit is in
operation or if glass is hot. To clean the glass, use a soft cotton cloth and
mild window cleaner, gas or wood stove glass cleaner, or take a damp
paper towel and dip into the fly ash. This is a very mild abrasive and will
not damage the glass.
FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS: Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel,
kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or “freshen up”
a fire in the heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while
it is in use.
