7 © Travis Industries 4070806 100-01191_000 Before You Begin READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE YOU INSTALL AND USE THIS HEATER. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY, OR EVEN DEATH. Check with local building officials for any permits required for installation of this pellet heater and notify your insurance company before proceeding with installation. Packing List • Thermostat & Wire • Scraper Rod Tool • Brush • Spare Fuse • Bottle Brush • Door Tool • (2) Floor Mounting Brackets Installation Options • Residential or Mobile Home (see the section "Mobile Home Requirements") • Alcove Compatible (see the section "Alcove Installation") • Horizontal or Vertical Vent • Outside Air Compatible • Vent with L-Vent, L-Vent Fireplace Liner, or Type A Chimney (with adapter) Planning The Installation HINT: Have an authorized Travis Industries dealer install this heater. If you install the heater yourself, have your dealer review your installation plans. HINT: Sketch out a detailed plan of the installation including dimensions. Then verify the dimensions with the requirements listed in this manual. HINT: When determining the location of the stove, locate the wall studs (for horizontal penetrations) and ceiling trusses (for vertical penetrations). You may wish to adjust the stove position slightly to ensure the vent does not intersect with a framing member. HINT: Place the heater outside and load 10 pounds of pellets inside the hopper. Plug the heater in and let it run on HIGH until the pellets run out. This will cure the paint and burn off any oil on the steel, eliminating any smell inside the home. Stove Placement • Stove must be placed so that no combustibles are within, or can swing within (e.g. drapes, doors), 36" of the front of the heater. • If the stove is placed in a location where the ceiling height is less than 7', it must follow the requirements in the section "Alcove Installation Requirements". HINT: REDUCING CLEARANCES - Clearances may be reduced by methods specified in NFPA 211, listed wall shields, pipe shields, or other means approved by local building or fire officials. • Heater and floor protection must be installed on a level, secure floor. Floor Protection Requirements • The heater must be installed on a non-combustible floor protector extending the full width and depth of the heater and extending 6" in front (minimum 27-3/4" wide by 31" deep) (minimum .018" thick - 26 gauge) . • Must extend under and 2" to each side and rear of a "Tee" (if used).

11 © Travis Industries 4070806 100-01191_000 Mobile Home Requirements • Outside air is required (used for combustion) - see the directions below. • The heater must be bolted to the floor (Some states do not require this; check with your local building department). See the illustration to the right. • The heater must be grounded to the steel chassis of the mobile home (Some states do not require this; check with your local building department). WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL IN SLEEPING ROOM. CAUTION: THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE MANUFACTURED HOME FLOOR, WALL, AND CEILING/ROOF MUST BE MAINTAINED. The leveling bolts in the legs may be used in conjunction with the included clips (sku 210-03924) to secure the stove to the floor. Outside Air (used for combustion) • Must not be drawn from an enclosed space (garage, unventilated crawl space). HINT: Travis Industries strongly suggests outside air for all residential installations, especially for those that are energy efficient, air-tight homes. • Must not be over 15' long. • Must be made with 3" diameter or larger metal or aluminum duct with a metal screen attached to the end to keep out rodents (P.V.C. or other combustible materials may not be used). We recommend the Travis Industries Outside Air Kit (part # 99200136). • Must not terminate above or within 1' of the chimney termination. • Must have a rain cap or down-turned elbow to prevent water from entering. • Must be located so that it will not become plugged by snow or other material. AAAAA 3” Air Duct (99200136 includes 4’ length) A screen is required to prevent rodents from entering. Outside air entrance must be placed so it does not become blocked by snow.

© Travis Industries 4070806 100-01191_000 Alcove Installation Requirements When the pellet stove is placed in a location where the ceiling height is less than 7' tall, it is considered an alcove installation. Because of the reduced height, the requirements listed below must be met. • Minimum height is 55" • Minimum width is 41-1/4" • Maximum depth is 48" • Minimum clearance of 7" on each side and 3" on back Baffle Installation Install the baffles included with the stove (see page 29 for details). Door Seal Verification The door is aligned prior to leaving the factory. However, shipping and installation may cause the door to become mis-aligned. Verify the door is correctly aligned and seals properly (see the section "Door Seal" under Yearly Maintenance). Restrictor Adjustment The restrictor “fine tunes” your appliance, ensuring it pulls the correct amount of air through the firebox. Altitude, vent configuration, and other factors make restrictor adjustment necessary for every installation. NOTE : the optimal restrictor position will vary over time as soot builds up inside the exhaust system – make sure the homeowner knows how to visually inspect the flame and adjust the restrictor. Not Enough Air If clinkers (ashes that solidify into a clump) develop or the flame appears lazy and slow to blow the ash out of the firepot, pull the restrictor outward until the flame becomes active and the firepot holes remain clean. NOTE: If the restrictor is fully out, yet the firepot does not remain clean, the stove needs to be cleaned and checked for air leaks (see “Maintenance” section of this manual). Too Much Air If the flames are too active (small, flickering flames) or if burning pellets are expelled from the firepot, move the restrictor rod inwards until the flame slows down and no burning pellets are expelled. Another symptom of too much air is the heater “blowing the fire out” – a condition in which the pellets burn faster than they are fed (this is most common on low). AA A AA A A A A A

To Open the Hopper Lid: Lift the hopper lid from this handle. Warning: The front edge of the stove top becomes very hot, do not touch this area below the handle. NOTE: The auger automatically shuts off when the hopper lid is open. If loading pellets while the heater is on, make sure to close the lid as soon as possible. This prevents the heater from shutting off due to lack of pellets in the firepot.

4070806 100-01191_000 Auto Mode Auto mode allows you to use a thermostat to control room temperature. The stove automatically turns on when the temperature drops below the thermostat setting. Once the stove reaches operating temperature, the stove then runs at the heat output setting selected. To Adjust Room Temperature (or Start the Stove) Move the thermostat to the heat setting desired. If the room is cooler than the setting, the stove will go through the start-up sequence for approximately 10 minutes. During this period the lowest “HEAT OUTPUT” light will flash. Once up to temperature, the stove will then run at the heat output setting selected on the control panel. If the room is too hot, move the thermostat to a lesser setting. To Adjust the Heat Press the "Heat” buttons to adjust the heat output. HINT: If you find that the stove turns on and off repeatedly, you may wish to turn the heat output to a lesser setting. The lower setting will provide a more consistent heat output over time, eliminating the need for the thermostat to repeatedly turn the stove off.

4070806 100-01191_000 Restrictor Adjustment The restrictor “fine tunes” your appliance, adjusting the amount of air flowing to the flame. NOTE : the optimal restrictor position will vary over time as soot builds up inside the exhaust system. Not Enough Air If clinkers (ashes that solidify into a clump) develop or the flame appears lazy and slow to blow the ash out of the firepot, pull the restrictor outward until the flame becomes active and the firepot holes remain clean. NOTE: If the restrictor is fully out, yet the firepot does not remain clean, the stove needs to be cleaned and checked for air leaks (see “Maintenance” section of this manual). Too Much Air If the flames are too active (small, flickering flames) or if burning pellets are expelled from the firepot, move the restrictor rod inwards until the flame slows down and no burning pellets are expelled. Another symptom of too much air is the heater “blowing the fire out” – a condition in which the pellets burn faster than they are fed (this is most common on low).

4070806 100-01191_000 Start-Up Sequence This stove utilizes a start-up sequence whenever the mode switch is changed or the heater is started when cold. This is to ensure proper operation through all possible settings and operational states (hot or cold, pellets burning or not burning, etc.). This sequence over-rides all user settings (except the "OFF" position) to set the auger feed rate to medium, the exhaust blower to high, and the igniter on. During this period the lowest “HEAT OUTPUT” light will flash. "MANUAL AUGER" Button This button turns the auger on. It is used to “prime” the auger after the hopper has run out of pellets. "AUGER ON" Light This light comes on when the auger is turning. This allows the operator to determine when the auger is turning. "FAULT" Light This light comes on when an error occurs: • The stove runs out of pellets • During initial start-up (for a split second) or for improper electrical frequency • A start-up sequence that does not result in the heater coming up to temperature To reset the fault light, turn the mode switch to off and re-start the stove. HIGH DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE SERVICE REMOTE AUTO MANUAL H E A T O U T P U T MED LOW AUGER FAULT Fault Codes (for qualified service personnel only) Fault and #2 (LOW) Light Flash = Flow Switch Fault Fault and # 4 (MID) Light Flash = System Snap Disk Fault (pellets run out & stove goes cold) Fault and # 6 (HIGH) Light Flash = Safety Snap Disk Fault Power Outages If a sustained power outage occurs while in "Manual", the stove will go to a "cool down" mode to vacate smoke once power returns. If the power outage was short, the heater will go to the start-up sequence. If in "Auto", the stove will re-start (if the room is cool). ! Because this stove relies upon a blower to evacuate the smoke, some smoke may enter the home during a power outage. To keep to a minimum, leave the door closed.

4070806 100-01191_000 Using a Pellet/Corn Mix with This Heater This heater may burn a mixture of corn and wood pellets up to a 50% - 50% proportion by volume. Shelled corn burned in Travis pellet appliances must be clean (free of husk and cob residue) and have a moisture content no greater than 15%. DO NOT BURN A MIX WITH MORE THAN 50% CORN TO WOOD PELLETS. THOROUGHLY MIX THE TWO FUELS TOGETHER TO BE SURE OF AN EVEN BURN RATE. • If combustion is slow, if the fire is slow to start, or if clinkers (ashes that solidify into a clump) build up rapidly in the fire pot, decrease the proportion of corn and increase the proportion of wood pellets until you find a proportion that works well in your appliance. • If your stove or insert is operated with a thermostat, you may notice the automatic igniter at times fails to light a 50/50 corn to pellet mix. If you experience this, decrease the proportion of corn and increase the proportion of wood pellets in the mix. For an optimum fire and greatest efficiency, it is important to keep the fire pot free of built up ashes. If you are burning only high quality wood pellets, you should check and clean the fire pot at least every two weeks or after ten bags of pellets. If the pellets you are burning have a high ash content or if you burn a corn/wood pellet mixture, we recommend that you check the fire pot every day and clean it if necessary.

4070806 100-01191_000 Daily Maintenance (whenever using the stove) Inspect the Burn When burning on high, the flames should be bright orange with embers jumping from the firepot. NOTE : the optimal restrictor position will vary over time as soot builds up inside the exhaust system. See "Restrictor Adjustment" for details. Make Sure Pellets are Not Piling Up If the pellets pile up over the burn pot, turn the mode switch to "OFF". The most likely causes are: • Restrictor needs adjustment (see “Restrictor Adjustment” in the installation section of this manual) • The door, glass, or ashpan is open or has an air leak • The firepot requires cleaning • The exhaust system requires cleaning AA AA A A AA AA AA AA A A A A A AA A A A A A A AA A A AA AA AA A AA A AA AA A A A AA AA AA AA AA AA A AA AA AA AA AA A A A AA AA AA A AA A A A AA A A A AA AA A A AA AA A AAA AA A AA AA AA A A A A AA A AAA A A A A A A A A AA A A A A A A A A A AA AA AA AA AA AA A AA AA A A A A A AA AA AA AA AA AA A A A A AAA A A AA AA AA AA A A A A A A A A A A A AA A A

4070806 100-01191_000 Bi-Weekly Maintenance (or every 10 bags of pellets) Flyash Removal This heater was designed to allow for easy flyash removal with the included tools. However, to ease maintenance, several pellet stove owners have purchased vacuums specifically made to remove flyash. Furthermore, some of these vacuums are heat-resistant to allow for flyash removal while it is still warm. Do not use a standard vacuum on this appliance (except to clean the pellet dust out of the hopper). Standard vacuums may spread the fine particles inside the flyash into the home and are not heat-resistant (hot flyash may cause the internal portion of vacuums to ignite). Clean the Hopper Run the stove until the pellets run out. Open the hopper and remove the dust and debris near the bottom of the hopper. Clean the Heat Exchange Tubes WARNING: The front edge of the stove becomes very hot, do not touch the area below the handle. Keep the door closed so the flyash does not enter the room. Use the included tool to move the heat exchanger rod up and down. NOTE: The tool hangs on the back of the stove.

4070806 100-01191_000 Bi-Weekly Maintenance (or every 10 bags of pellets) - continued Clean the Baffles WARNING : Make sure the heater has fully cooled (approximately 25 minutes) before conducting service. HINT : The more often you clean out flyash, the more efficient your heater will burn. The baffles are found along the top of the firebox. The front edge has a slot that slides into a hook on the top of the firebox. The back rests on the back refractory. To remove, slide them inwards, pull them forward, and tilt them back to allow the accumulated flyash fall off into the firebox. Replace after cleaning. Push up on the front portion of the left baffle and slide it to the right. Note how the rear edge of the baffle rests on the rear refractory. Move the baffle forward and tilt the back down. This allows any built-up flyash to fall off the top of the baffle. The right side baffle is removed in the same fashion. Note how the right side baffle is larger than the left side baffle.

WARNING : The ashpan must be in place while the heater is in use. Twist the ashpan handle clockwise. AAAAA AAAAA AAAAA AA AA A A A handle is provided on the ashpan to remove the ashes. A A Lift up on the ashlip and slide the ashpan forward. AA AA AAAAA AAAAA AAAAA Disposal of Ashes – Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible floor or 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 dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have been thoroughly cooled. Clean the Glass Open the doors and clean the glass with a non-abrasive glass cleaner and rag.

4070806 100-01191_000 Yearly Maintenance (or every two tons) The following section details extensive maintenance procedures. We strongly suggest these items be carried out by a trained service technician, possibly by a service agreement set up with your dealer. WARNING: Disconnect the power cord and make sure the heater has fully cooled prior to conducting service. Soot and Flyash: Formation and Need for Removal – The products of combustion will contain small particles of flyash. The flyash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the flow of the flue gases. Incomplete combustion, such as occurs during startup, shutdown, or incorrect operation of the room heater will lead to some soot formation which will collect in the exhaust venting system. The exhaust venting system should be inspected at least once every year to determine if cleaning is necessary. Clean the Vertical Exhaust Duct Remove the baffles at the top of the firebox (see page 31). Remove the firepot and ashdump covers (see page 32). Remove the side and back refractory (see the pictures below). Using the included latch tool, remove the two duct covers on the inside of the firebox (see the pictures below)..

4070806 100-01191_000 Yearly Maintenance (or every two tons) - continued Remove the button plugs at the top of the firebox (both sides). Once removed, use the bottle brush to dislodge any flyash from the exhaust channel behind the button plug. Use the included bottle brush to remove accumulated flyash from the vertical exhaust channels (both sides). You may need to bend the bottle brush to allow it to access this area. Remove accumulated flyash from the horizontal exhaust channels along the perimeter of the firebox and leading to the exhaust blower. Sweep the flyash out of the exahust channels and into the ashpan. Button Plug Vertical Exhaust Channel (behind the firebox walls – accessed from below). HINT: You can remove dry flyash from the vertical exhaust channels by “tapping” on the walls (be careful to prevent flyash from flying into the air). Horizontal Exhaust Channel Use the bottle brush to clean this channel.

4070806 100-01191_000 Yearly Maintenance (or every two tons) - continued Clean the Convection Blower Remove all dust and debris from the convection blower. Take care to prevent damage to the convection blower impellers. Clean the Vent Check the vent sections for creosote accumulation (indicating a poorly burning stove). Accumulation over 1/4” must be removed. On vertically vented systems, the dirtiest portion is often the point where the vent turns upwards (i.e. the "Tee"). Fortunately, the "Tee" has a built- in clean-out cover. Place a container under the “Tee”, disconnect the cover and remove all flyash. While open, use a flashlight to look up the vent to check for build-up. Make sure the cap is free of debris (especially if it has a screen that could become blocked). Flyash will deposit along sections that are horizontal.AA AA AA AA AA AA Warning: Whenever any portion of the pellet vent is disconnected, the joints must be sealed with RTV 500° F. silicone sealant. Adjusting the Door Hinge and Latch The door latch should pull the door against the face of the stove (but not so tight as to not allow full handle rotation). To adjust the door latch, adjust the position of the striker plate that attaches to the front plate of the stove. Check for Air Leaks Around the Door, Glass, and Ashpan ! Air leaks into the firebox will decrease the stove's performance greatly, leading to excessive sooting, inefficient burning, and perhaps a malfunction. • Inspect the door gasket to make sure it is fully attached. Use stove gasket cement to re-attach if necessary. If the door gasket is worn or flattened, replace. • If the glass is cracked, replace. The glass is held in place by glass clips. See the illustration below for details. • Remove the ashpan and inspect the gasket around the perimeter of the ashpan. Re-attach, or replace the gasket if necessary.
