TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Smoke Smell Coming Back Into The Home

Possible Causes:

Possible Remedies:

 

 

 

1.

There is a leak in the vent pipe system.

Inspect all vent pipe connections. Make sure they are sealed with RTV

 

 

silicone that has a temperature rating on 500 degree F or higher. Also,

 

 

seal joints with UL-181-AP foil tape. Also, make sure the square to round

 

 

adapter piece on the combustion blower has been properly sealed with the

 

 

same RTV.

 

 

 

2.

The gasket on the combustion blower has gone bad.

Inspect both gaskets on the combustion blower to make sure they are in

 

 

good shape.

 

 

 

Convection Blower Shuts Off and Comes Back On

Possible Causes:

Possible Remedies:

 

 

 

1.

The convection blower is overheating and tripping its internal

Vacuum any dust off of the windings and fan blades. If cleaning the

 

temperature shutoff.

blower does not help, the blower may be bad.

 

 

 

2.

Circuit board malfunction.

Check the voltage going to the convection blower. If there is power to the

 

 

blower, then the control board is fine. If there is NOT power being sent to

 

 

the blower when it shuts off during operation, then you have a bad control

 

 

board.

 

 

 

Stove Will Not Feed Fuel, But Auger Light Does Come On

Possible Causes:

Possible Remedies:

 

 

 

1.

Fuse on control board blew

Remove the control board. On the back there is one fuse. If it appears to

 

 

be bad, replace it with a 5 Amp 125 Volt fuse. Plug the stove back in and

 

 

try to run the unit.

 

 

 

2.

High-Temp switch has tripped or is defective

Wait for the stove to cool for about 30 - 45 minutes. It should now

 

 

function normally. If not use the owner’s manual to locate the high limit

 

 

thermodisc. To test if the thermodisc is bad, you can bypass it as

 

 

described previously for the POF thermodisc.

 

 

 

3.

Bad auger motor

Remove the fuel from the hopper and remove the auger shaft from the

 

 

auger tube. Apply line voltage to the auger motor. If the motor will not

 

 

turn, the motor is bad or the hopper safety switch has failed (see above).

 

 

 

4.

Auger jam

Visually confirm that the auger shaft is not rotating. If it is not, start by

 

 

emptying the hopper of fuel. Then pull the auger shaft out of the auger

 

 

tube from the front of the stove. Then clear the auger tube of all fuel.

 

 

Visually inspect the auger shaft. Maker sure the auger flights are securely

 

 

attached to the auger shaft. Inspect the shaft for bent flights, burrs, or

 

 

broken welds. Also check the auger tube for the signs of damage such as

 

 

burrs, rough spots, or groves cut into the metal that could have caused a

 

 

jam. If the parts appear fine, reinstall the auger in the auger tube per the

 

 

instructions in this manual.

 

 

 

5.

Loose wire or connector

Check all wires and connectors that connect to the auger motor, high limit

 

 

switch, hopper safety switch, and the Molex connector.

 

 

 

6.

Bad control board

If the fuse is good, the wires and connectors check out good, and the high

 

 

limit switch did not trip, test for power going to the auger motor. If there

 

 

is not a full current going to the auger motor when the fuel feed light is

 

 

on, you have a bad control board.
