FLOOR PROTECTOR Installation Installing Place the stove on a noncombustible floor protector 9"-13" that extends 6 inches to the front, 6 inches to the sides and 1 inch to the rear of the stove. The minimum floor protector material is 24 gauge sheet metal. Place the stove away from combustible walls at least as far as shown in figures 3,4 and 5. Please note the difference in side wall clearance with and without side 9"-13" shields. Note that the clearances shown are minimum for safety but do not

This causes a negative pressure in the firebox and a positive pressure in the venting system as shown in fig. 7. The longer the vent pipe and more elbows used in the system, the greater the flow resistance. Because of these facts we recom- mend using as few elbows as possible and 15 feet or less of vent pipe.

Venting #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. Fig. 8 3 ft. to combustibles #2 Preferred method This method also provides excellent venting for norma

Venting #6 Installing into an existing fireplace chimney ( US and Canada ) This method provides excellent venting for normal operation. This method also provides natural draft in the event of a power failure. In Canada and some places in the US it is required that the vent pipe extend all the way to the top of the chimney. In this method a cap should also be installed on the chimney to keep out rain. Be sure to use approved pel- let vent pipe fittings. Seal pipe joints with silicone in ad- dit

P61A-2 AUTOMATIC IGNITION/OPERATION The P61A pellet stove is more than just automatic ignition, it is also automatic temperature control. The automatic system will allow the fire size to be adjusted to match the heating needs and even put the fire out if necessary. If heat is needed after the fire is out, the P61A will automatically re-ignite and adjust the fire size to match the heating need. The totally automatic room sensor mode is o o recommended because of its efficiency. The unit can be

Maintenance Removing Ashes: When approximatly 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 com- bustible materials, pending final disposal. If ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise lo- cally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have
