My P43 makes like a clinking sound ( Maybe the pellets dropping ) and every now and then a clunk sound... Normal or not?

Stove is only a couple of weeks old.

Stove is only a couple of weeks old.
The clinking is when the gate opens up and pellets fall into the feed chamber. Some Harman owners call it the Harman tinkle The clunk sound is most likely a longer pellet being cut when the gate closes. All normal sounds. Enjoy your new stove I love my P43.
 
You soon won't notice those normal sounds except maybe the occasional long pellet that gets snapped.
