2. OPERATION

2.1. PROPER FUEL

THIS STOVE IS APPROVED FOR BURNING four different types of pellets: standard wood pellets, 100% bark

pellets, sawdust/hay mix pellets, and switch grass pellets! Each type of pellet has its properties and will burn

differently.

The ash produced can also vary greatly. Factory-approved pellets are those ¼” or 5/16” in diameter and not

over 1” long. Longer or thicker pellets sometimes bridge the auger flights, which prevents proper pellet feed.

Burning other types of pellets is not permitted. It will violate the building codes for which the stove has been

approved and will void all warranties. The different types of pellets that have been tested in the Enerzone

EUROMAX were made of the following types of biomass:

Wood pellets

Wood pellets, whether made of hard or soft wood, are easy to burn. The pellets used are the same type as

the ones used in most pellet stoves. They should produce a fairly small quantity of ash.

Wood and hay pellets

Pellets made of wood and hay will produce more ash than straight wood pellets. The wood and hay pellets

that have been tested in your EUROMAX consisted of 1/3 hay and 2/3 wood. Make sure that any wood and

hay pellets you put in your EUROMAX respect that mix (+/- 10%).

Bark pellets

100% bark pellets produce a hard crust that will be pushed into the ash drawer. Their ash content is very

high. If you burn 100% bark pellets, make sure that the crust forming in front of the burn pot breaks and falls

into the ash drawer. Ignition may be a bit more difficult and it is possible that the stove needs a second

ignition cycle to properly light the bark pellets.

Switchgrass pellets

The ash content of switch grass pellets may vary depending on when this type of biomass is harvested. Switch

grass will burn very clean. A crust will form in front of the burn pot. It should break easily and fall into the ash

drawer. The crust is light and friable. It will occupy quite a bit of volume into the ash drawer. For this reason,

if you are not present to empty the ash drawer, you should only fill 50% of the hopper.

2.2. WHERE TO STORE BAGS OF PELLETS

We recommend that you store your bags of pellets in a dry and well ventilated area if possible. Using dry

pellets will increase the performance of your stove. You may want to have a bag or two in the same room

as your stove for refuelling but make sure to respect the minimum clearances for combustible materials.

2.3. UNIT CONTROLS

The Enerzone Euromax use a LCD screen, the latest technology in control devices. This LCD interface is located

at the back on the right-hand side of the EUROMAX (see figure 17). The blowers and automatic fuel supply

are controlled from this panel. The control panel functions are as follows.
