L. Blower Operation
1. Initial (cold) startup - Push the Start-up Air Control back
until it stops. The blower tends to cool the appliance.
Leave the blower off until the burn is well established,
i.e., 30 minutes.
NOTE: For maximum efficiency and lowest emissions,
when operating the blower in either the automatic or
manual setting for the blower off until the burn is well
established, i.e., 30 minutes.
2. The blower is equipped with five setting switch. Increase
blower speed by turning the setting knob clockwise.
M. Opacity (Smoke)
Opacity is the measure of how cleanly your appliance is
burning. Opacity is measured in percent; 100% opacity is
when an object is totally obscured by the smoke column
from a chimney, and 0% opacity means that no smoke
column can be seen. As you become familiar with your
appliance, you should periodically check the opacity. This
will allow you to know how to burn as nearly smoke-free as
possible (goal of 0% opacity).
