BLOWER SYSTEM
The Blower System consists of a ON/OFF rocker
switch, a variable speed blower speed control switch
(rheostat), a thermally activated switch (fan disc) and 2
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 following
manners:
AUTO:
Turn Rocker Switch to the OFF "o" position
and the rheostat to the ON position (rotate rheostat
dial clockwise until it clicks). When the insert warms
up (110
°
F), the blower will automatically turn on (ad-
just rheostat dial to the desired speed setting). When
the insert cools down (90
°
F), the blowers will auto-
matically turn off.
MANUAL:
Turn Rocker Switch to the ON "-" position
and adjust rheostat dial to the desired speed. The
Blower will have to be manually turned off by rotating
the rheostat dial counterclockwise until it clicks.
CAUTION: BURNING THE INSERT AT A HIGH BURN
RATE FOR EXTENDED PERIODS WITHOUT RUN-
