Wood Pellet WPGGE1.5L Owner's Manual - page 8
*** Be certain to cleanout unit by removing all ash content from firebox and burn pot prior to the next
firing.
*** Open Flame cooking works with Charcoal or wood, NOT PELLETS. Pellet fuel requires the
cooktop plate to be in place.
*** The oven does not work when the cooktop plate is not in place since there is no longer a
draft created by the stove pipe.
INITIAL FIRING OF THE HEATER:
On initial firing fill ONE hopper ¾ full about 7 lbs of pellets.
Curing takes only a half an hour. This one time initial firing needs to be done to cure the paint on the
unit. Open the damper on the heater and leave it open for the entire initial burn period. Having the
damper closed on initial firing will result in very high temperatures and potentially damage your stove
voiding your warranty. Fire the unit and let it burn through all of the pellets and then let the stove
cool. You will now be free to use the unit according to the remainder of these directions. On your first
firing, the high temperature paint on the unit will cure. When curing, the paint gives off smoke. This
will happen for about the first 15 minutes of operation. Do not breathe these fumes, they can make
you sick. Do not use oven for cooking until the stove has been properly cured.
3.1.5 Never attempt to relight a hot Stove with alcohol gel or lighter fluid, always wait until the heater
is cool.
3.2 Fill both hoppers completely with pellets.
3.3 Lighting
3.3.1 Open the door and squirt about two tablespoons of alcohol fire gel on the mound of wood
pellets in the middle of the firebox. Pellets will have funneled down from the left hopper chute. Do not
use charcoal lighter to light the unit on initial firing, it will raise the temperature too quickly, could
affect the paint on the unit the first time. Safe to use charcoal lighter thereafter.
3.3.2 Light the alcohol fire gel with a match and close the door.
3.3.3. Open the (N) Damper below the door for the first ten minutes of a burn.
3.3.4 Standard burn time for the Cook Stove on one full hopper (10lbs) is about 3. hours. You can
extend this burn time by adding pellets to the hoppers during the burn.
3.3.6 This stove is supplied with a Patented Fire Pot to help burn hotter longer reducing the ash
content while burning. Clean grate and slots by pulling out rod from rear of stove allowing ash
content to fall into the ash pan. When Stove is off and cool you may empty the ash pan in a safe
location. Be certain to push rod and bottom grate back into place before relighting.
