Inspection and Removal-The chimney connector and the chimney should be inspected to
eliminate the risk of a chimney fire. Check the chimney from both the top and bottom. The
creosote should be removed with a brush designed for your chimney. A chimney sweep can
perform this service. It is recommended that before each heating season the entire system be
professionally inspected, cleaned, and repaired if necessary.

AUTOMATIC FEATURES

A.

THERMOSTAT OPTION:

When using a thermostat, select either T-STAT or AUTO operation and set the stove to one of
the medium or higher settings. The stove will burn at the rate selected on demand by the
thermostat (medium to high). NOTE: You cannot use the auto operation when burning
corn.
When the room temperature drops below the thermostat setting, the thermostat switch
will close, allowing the stove to operate at the medium or higher settings. When the room
temperature matches the thermostat setting, the thermostat switch will open, allowing the stove
to operate at the low setting or will shut the unit off if in the AUTO mode.

B.

THERMOSTAT EQUIPMENT REQUIRED (optional): A low voltage millivolt
thermostat that will automatically switch between settings previously selected.
Type CL2 thermostat wire-20 AWG, 2 conductors.

C.

STOVE PRESSURE SENSOR:
A blocked flue, a down draft, open door, open or unlatched ash drawer, open hopper lid,
negative or positive pressure in the home, drafty location of the appliance, not hooking up the
outside air, improper make up air for the home, improper venting or failure to clean the 3”
exhaust in the stove will cause the pressure switch to shut off the fuel feed. To resume
operation, it is necessary to locate the cause and correct it. Restart the stove following the
instructions in this manual. Contact your local MagnuM dealer for help if needed.

D.

HIGH TEMP THERMODISK:
If the stove overheats, it will shut itself down safely. The stove may not be restarted until it
has cooled and the reset button is depressed. (See Thermodisk location section) If the auger
does not turn after cleaning the back of the unit, you might have tripped this disk. Check it by
pressing in on the center button until it clicks into place.

E.

SELF-IGNITER:
Automatically ignites wood pellets within 3-5 minutes, without the use of fire starter. The
igniter will continue to run for approximately 10 minutes until a fire is established. If the fuel
is wet, poor quality or the hopper not primed, it might take 2-3 cycles for the unit to properly
light. Using a little fire starter will help with this. Do not attempt to light corn.

F.

PROOF OF FIRE THERMODISK:
If the temperature required by the PROOF OF FIRE thermodisk is not high enough within the
15 minute cycle, the auger will stop feeding pellets and you will need to push the ON/OFF
button to start the cycle over again. This is not unusual to happen so be patient.

G.

COOL DOWN SENSOR: (Same as Proof of Fire Thermodisk)
After the power switch has been moved to the “OFF” position, the blowers will continue to run
for approximately 45 minutes. The cool down sensor will allow the stove to cool down and
then automatically shut itself off. If the hopper runs out of fuel and the stove cools off, the
