draft Test Procedure  
Before attaching any vent pipe to the stove, perform  
a draft test, for later comparison.  
Remove the plug bolt on the underside of the firebox  
as shown. Using the hole from the bolt, attach a draft  
meter that is capable of reading at least .5 inches of  
water column (W.C.). You are going to want the meter  
reading negative pressure.  
Turn the feed adjuster to "Test". For the first minute,  
everything will run. Record the high draft reading  
_______ . After the first minute, the distribution blower  
will go to a low speed. Then, after the second minute,  
two minutes after turning to test, the distribution  
blower will come back up to high, and the combustion  
blower will drop to low. During this time, record the low  
draft________. Perform the test again after the venting  
is complete. Compare your readings. If there is more  
than a .05 difference, you have too much restriction in  
the venting. There is no adjustment for the draft other  
than improving the venting configuration. Leaving the  
stove in "test" will continue to cycle the blowers each  
minute. Record your final draft redings here. _________

but do not leave much room for access when cleaning  
or servicing. Please take this into account when placing  
the stove.  
9"-13"  
Connect the power cord to a 120 V.A.C. 60Hz grounded  
receptacle.  
After connecting the flue system, perform the second draft  
test. However, prior to taking the draft reading be sure all  
doors and windows in the home are closed. Record the  
draft reading_______. If this reading is more than .05"  
lower than the unconnected reading, check for possible  
restrictions or the need for outside air (see page 7).

gases from the firebox. This causes a negative pressure  
in the firebox and a positive pressure in the venting  
system as shown in fig. 6. The longer the vent pipe  
and more elbows used in the system, the greater the  
flow resistance. Because of these facts we recommend  
using as few elbows as possible and 15 feet or less  
of vent pipe. The maximum horizontal run should not  
exceed 48". If more than 15 feet of pipe is needed, the  
diameter should be increased from 3" to 4" because  
a larger pipe causes less flow resistance. be sure  
to use approved pellet vent pipe wall and ceiling  
pass through fittings to go through combustible  
walls and ceilings. Be sure to use a starting collar to  
attach the venting system to the stove. The starting  
collar must be sealed to the stove with high temp  
silicone caulking.  
Pellet Vent "L" or "PL" Vent Pipe Must be used.  
+
vent Pipe  
Pellet vent pipe (known as type "L" or "PL" vent) is  
constructed of two layers with air space between the  
layers. This air space acts as an insulator and reduces  
the outside surface temperature to allow a clearance  
to combustibles of only 3 inches. The sections of pipe  
lock together to form an air tight seal in most cases;  
however, in some cases a perfect seal is not achieved.  
For this reason and the fact that the P61 operates with  
a positive vent pressure we specify that the joints  
also be sealed with high temp silicone.

Outside Air  
Outside air flex  
pipe goes here  
Outside air is optional except in mobile homes and  
where building codes require. The benefit of outside air  
is mainly noticed in small very tight houses.  
To install outside air use 2 3/8" I.D. flex pipe part  
number 1-00-08543 (25 ft.). There is a break-away  
hole on the rear panel which must be removed before  
connecting the flex pipe. The pipe should be run outside  
and terminate to the side or below the vent pipe outlet  
so the flue outlet is more than 12" from the inlet cover.  
The maximum length run of this pipe is 15 feet. If a  
longer run is needed the size must be increased to 3".  
Inlet cover part number 1-10-08542 should be used to  
keep birds, rodents etc. out of the pipe.

#1 Preferred method  
This method provides excellent venting for normal  
operation and allows the stove to be installed  
closest to the wall. Two inches from the wall is  
safe; however, four inches allows better access to  
remove the rear panel. The vertical portion of the  
vent should be three to five feet high. This vertical  
section will provide natural draft in the event of a  
power failure.

#2 Preferred method  
This method also provides excellent venting for  
normal operation but requires the stove to be  
installed farther from the wall. The vertical portion  
of the vent should be three to five feet high and at  
least three inches from a combustible wall. This  
vertical section will provide natural draft in the event  
of a power failure.

Operation  
Starting First Fire  
Be sure the power cord is plugged into a 120 volt  
receptacle. This can be verified by the red power light  
on the control panel.  
be sure there is no fuel or other combustibles in  
the ash pan prior to lighting.  
Fill the hopper with pellets.  
Fill the burn pot with pellets to a level just short of  
overflowing, fig. 17.  
Fig. 17  
Adjust feed rate. If this is your first fire or you are trying  
different pellets, set the feed adjuster to "4", fig. 18.  
This is a conservative number and will probably need  
to be increased. After you know a feed rate setting that  
works well, use that setting. Remember, too high of a  
feed rate will waste fuel.  
Turn Mode selector to "OFF" and then to "Stove  
Temp". This will turn the combustion blower to high.  
When starting a fire always turn the mode selector to  
"OFF" before selecting the desired mode. This resets  
the control for start-up.  
Fig. 18  
Turn Temp dial to 7. This will allow the stove to burn  
at maximum for feed rate adjusting purposes.  
Apply starting gel to pellets in burn pot and light  
the gel. Close the door after lighting. At this point the  
distribution and combustion lights will be on and the  
feed motor light will be off.As the temperature of the fire  
increases, the feed motor light will come on and pellets  
will feed into the burn pot. As the stove temperature  
increases the distribution blower speed will increase.  
Fig. 19  
1"  
After 30 to 45 minutes it may be necessary to readjust  
the feed rate. The feed rate should be adjusted so  
there is about one inch of ash in front of the fire, fig. 20.  
This is a maximum burn position and the stove may not  
achieve this position under normal burn rates.  
"NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN  
FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID, OR  
SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR "FRESHEN UP " A FIRE

MANuAl IgNITION/OPErATION  
when to use "Stove Temp Mode"  
In "Stove Temp Mode" the Stove Temp Dial determines  
the temperature of the stove. Heat output and fuel  
consumption will remain constant. This makes it  
possible to tell how long a hopper full of pellets will last.  
The distribution blower speed will vary according to the  
position of the mode selector, fig. 21.  
Fig. 21  
when to use "room Temp Mode"  
In "Room Temp Mode" heat output is controlled  
automatically by the Room Sensing Probe. When  
the Room Sensing Probe calls for heat, the stove will  
increase output. When the Room Sensing Probe is  
getting close to the set temperature, the stove will begin  
to level off output and keep the fire burning at just the  
right temperature to maintain that setting.  
High output is determined by the feed rate. The  
maximum feed rate should be set for 1" of ash in front  
of fire.  
In "Room Temp Mode" fuel consumption is sacrificed  
for exact room temperature. Therefore, as it gets colder,  
more pellets will be burned automatically.  
This setting will produce medium heat with the distribution  
blower on "low".  
The distribution blower speed will vary according to  
the position of the mode selector, fig. 21.  
Shut-down Procedure  
To kill the fire or stop burning the stove, turn the Mode  
Selector to "OFF". This will cause the fire to diminish  
and burn out. When the fire burns out and the stove  
cools down everything will stop.  
Never pull the plug to shut down the stove, all motors  
will stop. This will cause incomplete combustion and  
smoke in the firebox. If the load door is opened the  
smoke will escape.  
This setting will produce a room temperature of 70  
degrees with the distribution blower at medium speed.  
The best way to shut down the stove is to simply  
let it run out of pellets, then the stove will shut down  
automatically.  
This setting will produce continuous maximum heat output  
with the distribution blower at full speed.

Maintenance  
removing Ashes:  
When approximately 1 ton of pellets has been burned,  
it will be necessary to empty the ash pan.  
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 ashes are  
disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally  
dispersed, they should be retained in the closed  
container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.  
It is recommended that the stove is cold and shut down  
when removing the ash pan.

Cleaning:  
Scrape the burn pot surface regularly. Whenever  
adding fuel, it is a good time to scrape the burn pot.  
Using the flat end of the scraper tool, scrape under  
the fire to remove any carbon deposits which may be  
forming. The more frequent the scraping, the better  
performanc you'll have.

The stove will need to be cleaned for approximately  
every 2 to 5 tons of pellets burned. The amount of  
pellets burned before cleaning will vary depending on  
the brand of pellets.

Soot and Fly Ash  
The products of combustion will contain small particles  
of fly ash. The fly ash 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

helpful hints  
removing Ashes  
Cleaning burn Pot  
Turn the Temperature Dial to minimum approximately  
30 minutes before removing ashes. This will result in a  
cooler stove and ash pan.  
Whenever your stove is not burning, take the  
opportunity to scrape the burn pot to remove carbon  
buildup. A vacuum cleaner is handy to remove the  
residue. Be sure the stove is cold if you use a vacuum.  
Maximum feed settings are not needed in most cases.  
Operating in the normal range is recommended when  
maximum heat output is not required. The ESP probe  
prevents the stove from being over-fired.  
Carbon buildup can be scraped loose with the fire  
burning using the special tool provided with your stove.  
Scrape the floor and sides of the burn pot. The carbon  
will be pushed out by the incoming fuel. Always wear  
gloves to do this.  
Keep the stove free of dust and dirt.  
Fuel  
Pellet fuels are put into 3 categories in terms of ash content. Premium at 1% or less, Standard at 3% or less  
and all others at 3% or more.  
The P61 is capable of burning all 3 categories of pellets due to a patented feeder and burn pot system.  
It should be noted, however, that higher ash content will require more frequent ash removal and may provide  
less BTU's per lb. Normally, standard and high ash pellets cost less than premium pellets and can be cost effec-  
tive when burned in the P61.  
The moisture content must not exceed 8%. Higher moisture will rob BTU's and may not burn properly.

door Options  
Door Frame  
Ash Lip Trim  
Ash Door Tile Frame  
Brushed Stainless  
Cutout Tile Plate  
Optional Trim  
decorative Tile  
The door trim kit includes the door frame, the ash lip  
trim, and the ash door tile frame. Available in brushed  
stainless, gold or bright nickel, they add a beautiful  
accent to your stove. To install, lay the frame face down  
on a soft surface. Drill the four holes in the door using  
the bit provided. You'll see there are dimples in the cast  
iron showing where to drill. Fasten the door frame by  
inserting the 4 threaded posts on the frame through the  
door. The posts should line up with the 4 holes located  
at the corners of the door. Once the posts are through  
the door, fasten frame with 4 nuts and tighten until the  
frame is snug.  
Decorative tile is available in several designs. The tile  
installs behind the trim on the ash door. Along with the  
above pictured cut-out tile plate, there are ten different  
picture tiles and four slate tiles available. See your  
dealer for choices.  
Cleaning Plated Trim  
Gold or nickel plated hardware should never be buffed  
or polished. Abrasive cleansers and metal polishes will  
remove the plating and therefore should never be used.  
If the plating needs to be cleaned, wait until the stove  
is completely cool, then use a sponge, soap and water  
to gently remove dirt and stains. Before relighting the  
stove, remove all soap residue and wipe dry.  
To install ash lip trim, simply slide the trim over the ash  
lip and into the groove on the trim.  
The ash door tile frame can be used with or without  
the optional decorative tile. Slide the spring clip into the  
channel on one end of the frame. Place the frame into  
the recessed area on the door inserting the clip end  
first. The tension of the spring holds the frame in place.

Side heat Shields  
hopper Extension  
Side heat shields are available to reduce the clearance  
to combustible materials.  
The hopper extension allows you to put more pellet  
fuel in the hopper and extends the burn time on one  
load of pellets. The hopper extension adds 60 pounds  
to the existing 72 pound hopper capacity, allowing you  
to load 132 pounds of pellets at one time.
