The heat exchangers transfer heat from the exhaust system 
into convection air.  There are 2 clean out rods located under 
the heat exchangers.

The heat output switch is located on the lower right side of 
firebox, in front of the right access panel and to the left of 
the reset button.  The function of the heat output switch is to 
regulate the burn rates; low, medium and high settings.

The igniter is mounted on the base of the firepot.  Combustion 
air travels over the red hot igniter creating super heated air 
that ignites the pellets. 

The junction box is located on the lower left side of the 
appliance, behind the left front access panel.  The junction 
box and wiring harness are replaced as one component.

The power outlet is located on the lower left 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.

The red call light is on the side of the junction box underneath  
the fuse.  The function of the red call light is to indicate that 
the thermostat is calling for heat.

The reset button is located on the lower right side of firebox in 
front of the right access panel and to the right of the heat output 
control switch.  The function of the switch is to momentarily 
open the thermostat circuit, which restarts the system.  

The thermocouple is located on top of the firepot 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.

The appliance is designed to run on a 12 volt AC thermostat. 
The heat anticipator, if present, should be set on the lowest 
setting available. 

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.  

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.  

The feed system is located behind the firebox 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 firepot.  

5. Firepot
The firepot is made of high quality ductile iron and has a 
cleaning pull-out rod.  The floor of the firepot 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.

The fuse is located on the side of the junction box above the 
red call light.  The fuse will blow should a short occur and 
shut off power to the appliance.

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.

 

a.  The control box is located on lower left side of 

appliance, on top of the junction box.

 

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 200

ο

F (93°C) in the firepot. 

and will turn red when it reaches 600

o

F (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 blinks every 10 seconds for 60 seconds and then will 
stop.
