Leveling your unit

Thermostat installation for the EUROPA

 

 

For thermostat use, purchase a thermostat supply by battery (AA or AAA batteries or 9 volt) or a mercury thermo-

stat or wireless thermostat. Connect the thermostat to purple wires that are located near the control panel inside 

the unit. 

See thermostat operation mode on page 21

 Installation

It is essential to level your unit

 

for a stable fuel bed

. First put a level on 

the side of the base (letter A) and use metal “spacer” to adjust the lowest 

side. And then, level the front by placing the level on the front of the base 

(B). When burning agriculture fuel, Paromax suggests increasing the height 

of the front of the unit by 1/4” to 3/8” or 6 to 10 mm. This modification helps 

to reduce ash accumulation in the front of the burner.
