shut off power to the appliance.
7. Heat Exchangers
The heat exchangers transfer heat from the exhaust system

into convection air. There are 2 clean out rods located under

the heat exchangers.
8. Heat Output Switch
The heat output switch is located on the lower right side of

fi rebox, behind the front access door and above the reset

button. The function of the heat output switch is to regulate

the burn rates; low, medium and high settings.
9. Hopper Switch
The hopper switch is located in the upper right hand corner,

outside of the hopper. This switch is designed to shut down

the feed motor whenever the hopper lid is opened.
10. Igniter
The igniter is mounted on the base of the fi repot. Combustion

air travels over the red hot igniter creating super heated air

that ignites the pellets.
11. Junction Box And Wiring Harness
The junction box is located on the lower right side of the

appliance, behind the left front access door. The junction box

and wiring harness are replaced as one component.
12. Power Supply
The power outlet is located on the lower right side of the

appliance on the front of the junction box. Check the wall

receptacle for 120 volt, 60 Hz (standard current). Make sure

the outlet is grounded and has the correct polarity. A good

surge protector is recommended. When operating with a

generator you need a least 600 watts of power, or with an

inverter at least 800 watts of power available for the appliance

during the start cycle.

2. Convection Blower
The convection blower is mounted at the bottom rear of the

appliance. There are 2 impellers, one on each side of the

motor. The convection blower pushes air through the heat

exchange system into the room.
3. Exhaust Blower
The exhaust blower is mounted on the right side of the

appliance behind the right side panel. The exhaust blower

is designed to pull the exhaust from the appliance and push

it out through the venting system.
4. Feed System
The feed system is located behind the fi rebox and can be

removed as an entire assembly. The assembly includes

the feed motor, mounting bracket, bearing and feed spring

(auger). The hollow feed spring (auger) pulls pellets up the

feed tube from the hopper area and drops them down the

feed chute into the fi repot at a set rate. The feed motor starts

and stops every 7 seconds.
5. Firepot

The fi repot is made of high quality ductile iron and has a

cleaning pull-out rod. The fl oor of the fi repot opens for

cleaning when you pull out the rod. Be sure that the fl oor

returns to a completely closed position or your appliance

will not operate properly.
