BLOWER SYSTEM
The Blower System consists of a ON / OFF
rocker switch, a variable speed blower speed
control switch (rheostat) located on the right
side panel, a thermally activated switch (fan
disc) and 4 axial blowers.
When starting a fire, leave the blower system
off until the insert is thoroughly heated (approx.
30 minutes after start up).
The blowers can be operated in one of the fol-
lowing manners:
Auto:
Turn rocker switch to the off position (
“
O
” = off, “
—
“ = on).
Turn the rheostat to the on
position by rotating the rheostat dial clockwise
until it clicks. When the insert warms up (110
°
F), the blower will automatically turn on (adjust
rheostat dial to the desired speed setting).
When the insert cools down (90
°
F), the blow-
ers will automatically turn off.
Manual:
Turn rocker switch to the on (
—
)
position and adjust rheostat dial to the desired
speed. The blowers will have to be manually
turned off by rotating the rheostat dial counter-
clockwise until it clicks.
