TROUBLE SHOOTING
See figure 26, page 32, for component locations.
Condition 1: The unit will not light.
Check that the unit is plugged in and that the wall outlet has power.
Unplug the unit then check all electrical connections against the Wiring Diagram
in this manual.
Check the fuse on the circuit board.
If a thermostat is used, ensure it is calling for heat.
If your unit still does not light contact your local dealer for service.
Condition 2: The stove will not operate when hot.
Check the hopper has fuel.
Check that the combustion air inlet is not blocked. Insufficient air supply may
cause the fire to burn cold and may cause fuel build up, in the pot, and smother
the fire.
Check that the exhaust fan is operating, if the fan is not operating properly it may
not generate enough vacuum in the firebox.
Check the vacuum switch by shorting out the vacuum switch then turn the control
panel to "OFF" and back to “ON”. If the unit starts to operate change the vacuum
switch.
Check the exhaust temperature switch (located on the exhaust blower) by shorting
out the exhaust temperature switch then turn the control panel to "OFF" and back
to “ON”. If the unit starts to operate change the exhaust temperature switch.
Check the 250
F high limit switch. This switch is manually reset, check if it has
tripped, if so let cool and reset switch. Check for cause of overheating, if switch
trips again contact your local dealer for service.
Condition 3: Exhaust blower does not operate normally.
Check all wiring connections.
Apply 120 volts directly to the exhaust blower, if the blower does not run replace
the blower.
Condition 4: Convection blower does not operate normally.
Check all wiring connections.
Apply 120 volts directly to the convection blower, if the blower does not run
replace the blower.
