M. Blower Operating Instructions
NOTE: If your wood appliance is equipped with an
optional blower, you should follow these
guidelines:
Burn Rate
Air Control
Figure 15.1
1. Initial (cold) startup: Raise the Burn Rate Air Control
all the way up to the High setting. The blower tends to
cool the appliance. Leave the blower off until the burn is
well established, i.e., 30 minutes.
2. High Burn Setting: Raise the Burn Rate Air Control all
the way up to the High setting. The blower may remain
on.
3. Medium or Medium High Burn Setting: Burn Rate Air
Control is closed then opened to 1 inch (pull up). The
blower may remain on.
4. Medium Low Burn Setting: Burn Rate Air Control is
closed then opened to 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch (pull up).
Leave the blower off for the first 30 minutes until the
burn is well established.
5. Low Burn Setting: Burn Rate Air Control is closed
(down position). Leave the blower off for the first 30
minutes until the burn is well established.
6. When reloading the appliance, raise the Burn Rate
Air Control all the wall to the High setting for 5 to 15
minutes before setting to the desired burn rate.
*NOTE: For burn settings 3 to 5 the Start-up Air Control
needs to be pushed in (Open) then pulled forward
to activate the Automatic Combustion Control
(ACC).
NOTE: For maximum efficiency and lowest emissions,
when operating the blower in either the automatic
or manual setting for the low and medium low
burn settings leave the blower off until the burn is
well established, i.e., 30 minutes.
7. The blower is equipped with a rheostat (speed control).
The highest blower speed is obtained by turning the
rheostat on, then adjusting back towards "OFF" as far
as possible without turning the blower off. For a low
blower speed, turn the control knob clockwise as far as
possible
