Reference Materials

When describing the location of a component, 

it is always AS YOU FACE THE FRONT OF 

THE APPLIANCE.

NOTE:

Do 

NOT

 open the control box.

  

This will void the 

warranty.  FolIow proper shutdown procedures fi rst if 
you need to plug in or remove the control box. 

1. Control Box

 

a.  The control box is located on upper right side of 

appliance, behind the right side panel and above the 
vacuum switch. 

  

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 175

F (79

C) in the fi repot. 

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 times in a row for 60 seconds and then will stop.  

A. Component Function

7. Heat Exchangers

The heat exchangers transfer hot air from the exhaust system 
into convecton air. Remove the stainless steel top baffl e to 
access the heat exchangers.  There are 2 clean out rods 
located under  the heat exchangers.  

8

Heat Output Switch

The heat output switch is located on the upper right rear 
corner.  The funtion of the heat ouput switch is to regulate 
the burn rates; low, medium and high settings.

9. Hopper Switch

The hopper switch is located in the upper right hand corner 
of the hopper.  This switch is designed to shut down the feed 
motor whenever the hopper lid is opened.

10. Igniter

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

11.  Junction Box And Wiring Harness

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

12. Power Supply

The power outlet is located on the right rear 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.

13.  Red Call Light

The red call light is on the  front of the junction box, behind 
the control box.  The function of the red call light is to indicate 
that the thermostat is calling for heat.

14. Reset Button

The reset button is located on the back of the appliance on 
the upper right corner of the side panel under the heat output 
control switch.  The function of the button is to momentarily 
open the thermostat circuit, which restarts the system.  

15. Thermocouple

The thermocouple is located on top of the fi repot  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.

2. Convection Blower

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.  

3. Combustion Blower

The combustion blower is located on the right side of 
appliance and is designed to pull the exhaust from the 
appliance and push it out through the venting system.  

4. Feed System

The feed system is located on the right side of the appliance 
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 fi repot.  

5. Firepot

The  fi repot is made of high quality ductile iron and has a 
cleaning pull-out rod.  The fl oor of the fi repot opens for 
cleaning when you pull out the rod.  Be sure that the fl oor 
returns to a completely closed position or your appliance will 
not operate properly.

6. Fuse

The fuse is located on the front of the junction box on the 
right side of appliance.  The fuse will blow should a short 
occur and shut off power to the appliance.
