OPERATING PRINCIPLES

The LITTLE stove is pellet-fi red with electronically controlled
combustion.
The fuel (pellets) is taken from the storage hopper (A) and
delivered to the combustion chamber (D) by a screw feeder
B) driven by a gearmotor (C).
The pellets are ignited by hot air produced by a heating element
(E), which is drawn into the combustion chamber by a
centrifugal fan (M).
The combustion smoke produced is drawn out of the fi rebox
by the same centrifugal fan (M), and expelled from the vent
(F) at the bottom rear of the stove.
Air is blown by the fan (G) into the hollow space at the rear
of the fi rebox, where it is heated and blown out into the room
through the front grille (I).
The amount of fuel and the smoke extraction/combustion air
supply are controlled by an electronic circuit board (N) to
achieve high-performance combustion.
All operating stages are managed and displayed using the
mimic panel (L) and two knobs located on the front of the
stove, below the door. The same stages can also be managed
by remote control (optional).
The fuel hopper is located in the upper part of the stove.
The hopper can be fi lled by raising the cover, located at the
rear top of the stove.
The internal structure of the stove is made completely of cast
iron.
A serial port is found at the back of the stove (optional cable:
code 620550) to be connected to devices that allow remote
ignition (e.g. remote telephone, local thermostat).
The external covering is metal.
NOTES on fuel.
The LITTLE pellet stove is designed and programmed to burn wood pellets with 6 mm diameter.
Pellets are small cylinders about 6 mm in diameter made from sawdust or shredded waste wood, pressed at high pressure
without the addition of adhesives or other foreign material.
To prevent damage to the stoves, do NOT burn any other substances. The use of other materials (including wood), which
can be detected by laboratory analysis, invalidates the guarantee.
Edilkamin has designed, tested and programmed its stoves to perform best with pellets with the following characteristics:
• diameter: 6 - 7 millimetres
• maximum length: 40 mm
• maximum moisture content: 8 %
• heat output: at least 4,300 kcal/kg
If different types of pellets are to be used the stove must be reset, following the same procedure carried out by the DEALER,
for the fi rst ignition.
The use of unsuitable pellets can lead to: decreased performance, operating anomalies, stoppages due to clogging, dirty glass,
unburnt fuel, etc.
The pellets can be analysed by visual examination.
Good quality: smooth, even lengths, not very dusty.
Poor quality: with horizontal and vertical splits, very dusty, variable lengths and mixed with foreign matter.
