• Be sure the ash pan, door, and hopper lid are all
closed and latched.
• Turn the feed ad uster to Test mode.
•
uring the first minute of test, the combustion
blower will be on high. Record the high draft
reading here
-W.C. The high draft
should be above -0.5 W.C. but no higher than -1
W.C.
• After a minute, the combustion blower will go
to low speed. Here you want to see a reading
between -0. 0 and -0. 5 . If necessary, ad ust the
draft voltage using the low draft ad ustment screw
on the circuit board (See Page 2 ). Clockwise
will increase the draft and counter-clockwise will
decrease it.
• Once set, record the low draft reading
here:
-W.C.
• Be sure and turn off of Test mode. isconnect

the temperature dial above the current room
temperature.
5. ill the burn pot with a mixture of wood pellets and
