A. Component Functions
1. Control Box
a. The control box is located on upper right side of
appliance, behind the right side panel and above
the vacuum switch.
b. There is a light located inside of the control box.
The internal light will turn green when the appliance
has reached a temperature of 200oF (93°C) in the
fire pot. and will turn red when it reaches 600oF
(315°C).
c. There is also an internal blue light located in the
upper left corner of the control box. When you plug
in the appliance the blue light will automatically
start blinking 6 times in a row for 60 seconds and
then will stop.
NOTE:
Do NOT open the control box. This will void the
warranty. If you need to plug in or remove the control
box you must first unplug the appliance.
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 heated air through
the heat exchange system into the room.
3. Exhaust Blower
The exhaust blower is mounted on the right side of the
appliance. 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 on the right side of the
appliance 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 fire pot.
5. Fire pot
The fire pot is made of high quality ductile iron and has
a cleaning pull-out rod. The floor of the fire pot opens for
cleaning when you pull out the rod. Be sure that the floor
returns to a completely closed position or your appliance
will not operate properly.
6. Fuse
The fuse is located on the front of the junction box next to
the red call light. The fuse will blow should a short occur
and shut off power to the appliance.

When describing the location of a component,
it is always AS YOU FACE THE FRONT OF
THE APPLIANCE.
7. Heat Exchangers
The heat exchangers transfer hot air from the exhaust
system into convection air. Remove the stainless steel top
baffle to access the heat exchangers. There are 2 clean out
rods located under the heat exchangers.
8. Heat Output Switch
The heat output switch is located on the upper right rear
panel. 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
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 fire pot.
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 right side of the
appliance, behind the right side panel. The junction box and
wiring harness are replaced as one component.
12. Power Supply
The power outlet is located behind the control box on the
back of the appliance, lower left corner. 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.
13. Red Call Light
The red call light is on the side of the junction box, next to
the fuse. The function of the red call light is to indicate that
the thermostat is calling for heat.
14. Reset Button
The reset button is located on the back of the appliance in
the upper right corner below the heat output control switch.
The function of the button is to momentarily open the
thermostat circuit, which restarts the system.
15. Thermocouple
The thermocouple is located on top of the fire pot inside
the thermocouple cover (ceramic protection tube). The
thermocouple sends a millivolt signal to the control box
indicating the preset temperatures of the green and red
lights have been obtained.
