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 Fuses 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). © Travis Industries 4080725 100-01154 8 Installation (For Qualified Installers Only) Clearances - Straight Installation Through the Wall Installations Interior Vertical Vents A A A A A A Vent Clearance* AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA 2" AAAAAAAA3" Minimum "Tee" Minimum** AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA 6" Minimum AAAAAAAA 9" Minimum Floor Protection AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA 9" Minimum AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAA AAAAAAAA 6" Minimum AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA Clearances - Corner Installation Through the Wall Vents Interior Vertical Vents A A AAAAAAAAAAAAA AA AA AAAAAAAAAAAA 3" Minimum Vent Clearance* A AAAAAAAAAAAAA 3" Minimum AA 2" 45° Elbow 45° AAAAAAAAAAAA Minimum** AAAAAAAAAAAAA "Tee" AAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAA AAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAA AAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAA 3" Minimum AAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAA 3" AAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAA Minimum AAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAA 6" Minimum AAAAA 6" Minimum AAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAA Floor Protection AAAAAAAAAAAA * Install vent at clearance specified by the vent manufacturer.

Because of the reduced height, the requirements listed below must be met. • Minimum height is 60" • Minimum width is 46" Baffle Installation • Maximum depth is 48" • Minimum clearance of 9" on each side and 3" on back 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 is used to adjust airflow to the firepot. It should be adjusted to match the heat output setting and burn the pellets at the appropriate rate. This keeps the firepot as clean as possible. For low heat output settings the restrictor will need to be closed or near closed to limit the amount of air. This prevents the stove from burning the pellet fuel faster than it is fed. For medium heat output settings the restrictor will need to be opened to a medium position. For high heat output settings the restrictor will need to be opened to a high position. This prevents the firepot from over-filling with pellets and becoming clogged with ash clumps. Keeping your firepot clean is the most important step to maintaining a safe and efficient stove. Check and clean your firepot daily until you find the correct restrictor settings and appropriate firepot cleaning interval. 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 (note: it is okay to have "glowing embers" jump out of the firepot). 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).

Do not connect 120 VAC to the thermostat circuit of this heater (do not use a household thermostat used for a wall-board or other electical heater). A thermostat is included with this heater (part # 99300650). Follow the directions below to install. 1 Attach the thermostat wire to the circuit board (see the illustration below). Route the wire through the back of the heater (away from any hot or moving components). Attach the quick-connects to the two posts near the molex connector on the circuit board (orientation does not mater). 2 Determine a location for the thermostat that is within range of the 20' length of thermostat wire. It should be centralized in the room and away from the heater. The wire may be routed externally on the wall or behind the wall (preferred). 3 Follow the directions to the right to attach the thermostat and thermostat wires. 50 60 70 80 90 Robertshaw 50 60 70 80 90 Pull the cover off the thermostat Run the thermostat wires through the wall (cut off excess wire, leaving 6" of slack).

It should be adjusted to match the heat output setting and burn the pellets at the appropriate rate. This keeps the firepot as clean as possible. For low heat output settings the restrictor will need to be closed or near closed to limit the amount of air. This prevents the stove from burning the pellet fuel faster than it is fed. For medium heat output settings the restrictor will need to be opened to a medium position. For high heat output settings the restrictor will need to be opened to a high position. This prevents the firepot from over-filling with pellets and becoming clogged with ash clumps. Keeping your firepot clean is the most important step to maintaining a safe and efficient stove. Check and clean your firepot daily until you find the correct restrictor settings and appropriate firepot cleaning interval. 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 (note: it is okay to have "glowing embers" jump out of the firepot). 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).

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. "AUGER ON" Light This light comes on when the auger is turning. This allows the operator to determine when the auger is turning.

It is used to "prime" the auger after the hopper has run out of pellets. 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. 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. © Travis Industries 4080725 100-01154 Maintenance 27 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.

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 Open the hopper lid.

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.
