3. Fill Hopper with pellets.
When filling the hopper check for excessive fines
in the bottom of the hopper. Fines are small pieces of
broken pellets (sawdust). Fines do not flow easily and
often build up on the hopper funnel bottom angles.
These fines can be pushed into the feeder opening
and then fill the hopper with pellets. As the system
works, they will be burned.

2. Clean Burnpot with scraper, if necessary.
This is usually a weekly maintenance proce-
dure. Cleaning the burn pot with the scraper with
a small amount of new fuel in the bottom is not a
problem. First, scrape the ashes on the front of the
burn pot into the ash pan. Then scrape the hole grid
surface downward into the burn pot. When the stove
is ignited these scrapings will be pushed out by the
feeder.
The illustration at left shows the hopper swing plate
open for easy access to the burn pot. The burn pot
can also be reached through the firebox door.
NOTE: To minimize the amount of stress placed
on the hopper swing plate hinges, opening of the
hopper swing plate should be done with the least
amount of fuel in the hopper as possible.
