OPTIONAL BLOWER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (CONT'D)
4.
Insert blower assembly into interior, bottom of firebox.
NOTICE: On peninsula models, the blower must be installed
at the end which has the brick panel installed. Position blower
assembly so that you align the notch on back of blower as-
sembly with the center screw on side/end panel, then push
the blower assembly against firebox outer panel. The blower
wheel must be centered with the side/end wall of the firebox.
The magnets on the back and bottom of blower assembly will
sufficiently hold blower assembly in place. See Figure 27.
5.
Once the blower assembly is in position, locate the plug but-
ton in the top corner of the firebox. Remove the plug with a
standard screwdriver and discard plug.
6.
Next, find the fan control switch and wire assembly. Feed the
wires through the hole at the top of the firebox, and secure
the fan control switch with two (2) #6 screws (provided). The
fan control wires will slide down between the firebox and outer
wrap near the blower assembly. See Figure 26.
7.
Route the wires away from moving parts of the blower assem-
bly and retain wires together near the blower motor using the
plastic purse clip provided.

8.
To complete the installation, plug the power cord into the junc-
tion box receptacle previously installed in the bottom of the
fireplace. See Figure 27.
9.
Once all connections are made electrically, it is recommended
that you test the blower fan control operation by turning on
power to the blower (CAUTION: 110 Volt). Turn the fireplace
on and let run until blower is activated. This should take ap-
proximately 10 to 20 minutes from a cold start. Once blower
is activated, check for proper operation. Do not place hands
near blower assembly or other wiring while power is on.
10. Replace louver(s).
11. This completes the installation of the optional FBB5 Blower kit
accessory.

NOTICE: This blower is equipped with a heat activated fan control
switch. Blower will operate when the fireplace warms up, and will
turn off automatically when the fireplace cools down. The time will
vary for the activation of the fan control switch depending on sev-
eral factors including fireplace type, BTU input variables, and log
set style. Generally, it may take from 10 to 20 minutes to activate
blower/fan control from a cold start.
