CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE CONT'D

6.BLOWERS

a.There are two blowers in this stove: an exhaust blower that vacates the exhaust out of the firebox, and a convection blower that delivers heat into the room.

THESE BLOWERS REQUIRE NO LUBRICATION.

b.The exhaust blower is located on the right side of the stove. To inspect it, open the right side access panel.

NOTE: The impeller on the motor can be cleaned and inspected when performing heat exchanger maintenance and cleaning.

c.The convection blower on the floor at the back of the stove has two impellers, one on each side of the motor. They should be cleaned at least once each year. Brush and vacuum the impellers from both sides.

7.READING THE FIRE AND ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES

A properly adjusted fire with the heat output control set on high has a short active flame pattern that extends out of the firepot approximately 4 inches (102mm). If the fire has tall flames with black tails and seems somewhat lazy, the feed rate will need to be reduced. This is done by sliding the feed adjustment plate down, which will reduce the feed. If the fire is not 4 inches (102mm), slide feed plate up to increase the feed. Allow five minutes for feed adjustment to take effect.

8.SOOT AND FLY ASH - FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL

The products of combustion will contain small particles of fly ash. The fly ash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the flow of the flue gases. Incomplete combustion, such as occurs during start-up, shutdown, or incorrect operation of the room heater will lead to some soot formation, which will collect in the exhaust venting system. The exhaust venting system should be inspected at least once every year to determine if cleaning is necessary.
