NOTE: Hearth & Home Technologies, manufacturer of
this appliance, reserves the right to alter its products,
their specifications and/or price without notice.
C. Glass Specifications
This appliance is equipped with 5mm ceramic glass. Replace
glass only with 5mm ceramic glass. Please contact your
dealer for replacement glass.
NOTE: This installation must conform with local codes. In
the absence of local codes you must comply with the ASTM
Consideration must be given to safety, convenience, traffic
flow, and the fact that the appliance will need a chimney and
chimney connector. It is a good idea to plan your installation
on paper, using exact measurements for clearances and floor
protection, before actually beginning the installation.
If you are not using an existing chimney, place the appliance
in a location to maintain a clear passage for the installation
of any listed and approved pellet venting system. This appliance may be vented vertically or horizontally.
Maintain specified vent clearance to comubstible requirements listed by the pellet manufactures venting instructions
and all clearance to combustivles listed in this manual.
Check with your local building code agency before you begin
your installation. Be sure local building codes do not supersede UL specifications and always obtain a building permit
so that insurance protection benefits cannot be unexpectedly
cancelled. If any assistance is required during installation,
please contact your local dealer.
We recommend that a qualified building inspector and your
insurance company representative review your plans before
and after installation.
2. Thermostat Location
The thermostat’s location will have some effect on the
appliance’s operation. When the thermostat is located close
to the appliance, it may require a slightly higher temperature
setting to keep the rest of the house comfortable. If the
thermostat location is in an adjacent room or on a different
floor level, you will notice higher temperatures near the
appliance.
B. Fire Safety
Maintain the designated clearances to combustibles. Insulation must not touch the chimney. You must maintain the
designated air space clearance around the chimney. This
space around a chimney is necessary to allow natural heat
removal from the area. Insulation in this space will cause
a heat buildup, which may ignite wood framing. NOTE:
Clearances may only be reduced by means approved
by the regulatory authority having jurisdiction.
To provide reasonable fire safety, the following should be
given serious consideration:
1. Install at least one smoke detector on each floor of
your home to ensure your safety. They should be
located away from the heating appliance and close
to the sleeping areas. Follow the smoke detector
manufacturer’s placement and installation instructions,
and be sure to maintain regularly.
2. A conveniently located Class A fire extinguisher
to contend with small fires resulting from burning
embers.
3. A practiced evacuation plan, consisting of at least 2
escape routes.
4. A plan to deal with a hopper fire as follows:
In the event of a hopper fire:
a. Evacuate the house immediately.
b. Notify fire department.
CAUTION
• Do NOT connect this unit to a chimney flue servicing
another appliance.
• Do NOT connect to any air distribution duct or system.

F. Floor Protection
1. Zero Clearance Installations*
It is necessary to install a floor protection of non-combustible material with a R value of 3.0 (1 inch [25mm] minimum
thickness with a “k” value of 0.58) or a 1 inch (25mm) air
space between insert base and hearth.
2. Non-Zero Clearance Installations*
A non-combustible floor protector is required with a minimum R value of 3.0 (1 inch [25mm] minimum thickness with
a “k” value of 0.58) extending 6 inches (153mm) in front of
the insert and 8 inches (203mm) to each side of the door
opening.
* See alternate floor protection worksheet.
G. Calculating Alternate Floor Protection Material
Thermal Conductivity: k value
The k value indicates the amount of heat (in BTU’s) that will flow
in 1 hour through 1 square foot of a uniform material 1 inch thick
for each degree (F) of temperature difference from one side of
the material to the other. The LOWER the k factor means less
heat is being conducted through the non-combustible material to
the combustible material beneath it. The k value of a material
must be equal or smaller then the required k value to be acceptable.
(BTU) (inch)
(foot
Thermal Resistance: R value
The R value is a measure of a material’s resistance to heat
transfer. R value is convenient when more than one material is used since you can add the R values together, whereas
you can not do this for k value. The HIGHER the R factor
means less heat is being conducted through the non-combustible material to the combustible material beneath it. The
R value of a material must be equal or larger then the required R value to be acceptable.
Converting k to R:
Divide 1 by k and multiply the results times the thickness in inches of the material.
R = 1/k x inches of thickness
Converting R to k:
Divide the inches of thickness by R.
k = inches of thickness/R
Calculations:
Example: Floor protection requires k value of 0.84 and 3/4 inch
thick.
Alternative material has a k value of 0.6 and is 3/4 inch thick.
Divide 0.6 by .75 = k value of 0.80. This k value is smaller than
0.84 and therefore is acceptable.

H. Removing Metal Floor of Factory-Built
Firebox
• The firebrick (refractory), glass doors, screen rails,
screen mesh and log grates can be removed from a
factory-built firebox in order to gain minimum insert
opening requirements.
• Any smoke shelves, shields and baffles may be
removed from a factory-built firebox if attached with
mechanical fasteners.
• The metal floor of the factory-built firebox may be
removed to facilitate the installation of the insert only
when a 1 inch (25mm) airspace is provided between
the insert and the floor of outer wrap.
• If the floor is made of thin metal, we recommend using
a Quarda-Fire floor protector, Part 811-0730, which is
available through your dealer.

A. Chimney and Exhaust Connection
1. Chimney & Connector: Use 3 or 4 inch (76-102mm)
diameter type "L" or "PL" venting system. It can be vented
vertically or horizontally.
2. Mobile Home: Approved for all Listed pellet vent. Use
Listed double wall flue connector. A Quadra-Fire Outside
Air Kit must be used with manufactured home installations.
3. Residential: Use 24 gauge single wall flue connector or
Listed double wall flue connector to Class A Listed metal
chimneys, or masonry chimneys meeting national and/or
local codes for solid fuel appliances.
4. INSTALL VENT AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE
VENT MANUFACTURER.
5.
Secure exhaust venting system to the appliance with at
least 3 screws. Also secure all connector pipe joints with
at least 3 screws through each joint.
NOTE: All pipe must be welded seam pipe whenever possible. Seal pipe joints with high temperature silicone (500°F
[260°C] minimum rated only).
NOTE: If burning shelled field corn, you must use approved
venting specifically designed for corn. Follow the instructions from the venting manufacturer.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
• Only LISTED venting components may be
used.
• NO OTHER vent components may be used.
Substitute or damaged vent components may
impair safe operation.
WARNING
Vent surfaces get HOT, can cause burns
if touched. Non-combustible shielding or
guards may be required
B. Venting Termination Requirements
CAUTION
Do not terminate vent in any enclosed or semi-enclosed
area such as a carport, garage, attic, crawl space, under a
sun deck or porch, narrow walkway or closely fenced area,
or any location that can build up a concentration of fumes
such as a stairwell, covered breezeway, etc.
1. Termination must exhaust above air inlet elevation. It is
recommended that at least 60 inches (1524mm) of vertical pipe be installed when appliance is vented directly
through a wall. This will create a natural draft, which
will help prevent the possibility of smoke or odor venting
into the home during a power outage. It will also keep
exhaust from causing a nuisance or hazard by exposing
people or shrubs to high temperatures. The safest and
preferred venting method is to extend the vent vertically
through the roof.
2. Distance from doors and opening windows, or gravity or
ventilation air inlets into building:
a. Not less than 48 inches (1219mm) below;
b. Not less than 48 inches (1219mm) horizontally
from;
c. Not less than 12 inches (305mm) above.
3. Distance from permanently closed windows:
a. Not less than 12 inches (305mm) below, horizontally
from or above.
4. Distance between bottom of termination and grade
should be 12 inches (305mm) minimum. This is conditional upon plants in the area, and nature of grade
surface. The grade surface must be a non-combustible
material (i.e., rock, dirt). The grade surface must not be
lawn. Distance between bottom of termination and public
walkway should be 84 inches (2134mm) minimum.
5. Distance to combustible materials must be 24 inches
(610mm) minimum. This includes adjacent buildings,
fences, protruding parts of the structure, roof overhang,
plants and shrubs, etc.
6. Termination Cap Location (Home Electrical Service)
• Side-to-side clearance is to be the same as minimum
clearance to vinyl inside corners.
•
Clearance of a termination cap below electrical service
shall be the same as minimum clearance to vinyl soffits.
• Clearance of a termination cap above electrical service
will be 12 inches (305mm) minimum.
• Location of the vent termination must not obstruct or
interfere with access to the electrical service.

the vertical left side of the chart. Move to the right
horizontally on the chart until you reach your altitude
above sea level.
If you fall below the diagonal line, 3 or 4 inch (76 to
102mm) pipe may be used. If it is anywhere above
the diagonal line, a 4 inch (102mm) diameter pipe is
requried.
The chart reveals that a 90° elbow is 5 times as
restrictive to the flow of exhaust gases under positive
pressure as 1 foot of horizontal pipe, and a foot of
horizontal pipe is twice as restrictive as a foot of
vertical pipe.

J. Thermostat Installation
1. A 12 volt AC thermostat is required to operate this pellet
appliance. You may use the included wall mount thermostat or purchase an optional programmable thermostat
or remote control. The included thermostat is equipped
with an adjustable heat anticipator. The current rating is
.05 amps. The anticipator needs to be adjusted to the
lowest setting available.
2. When mounting a thermostat on a wall, be sure to follow
your thermostat installation instructions carefully.
NOTE: Thermostat must be mounted level for accurate readings. The thermostat should be mounted on
an inside wall and not in direct line with the appliance
convection air. Remove any packaging from inside
the thermostat before using.
NOTE: If the thermostat is located too close to the
appliance, you may need to set the temperature
setting slightly higher to maintain the desired tem-
perature in your home.
3. Open right side plane to access a 4 screw terminal block
located on the bottom right hand side next to the power
cord inlet. The center 2 screws are for the thermostat
wires. The outer 2 are the mounting screws for the terminal block. Figure 24.3.

Operating Instructions

A. Fuel Size And Material
1. Wood Pellets
Fuel pellets are made from sawdust or wood by-products. If the
source material is hardwood, they can have a higher mineral
content, creating more ash. Fuels containing bark will also
have higher ash content. Minerals and other non-combustible
materials such as sand will turn into a hard, glass-like substance
called a clinker when heated to the extreme temperatures
our firepot reaches. This is what forms clinkers in the bottom
of the firepot. Trees from different areas will vary in mineral
content. That is why some fuels produce more clinkers than
others. Pellets are manufactured in either 1/4 inch or 5/16 inch
(6-8mm) diameter and should be no more than 1-1/2 inches (38mm) in length. Pellet lengths may even vary by lot from the
same manufacturer which is why the feed rate may need to be
adjusted occasionally. If you burn pellets longer than 1-1/2
inches (38mm) you may have an inconsistent fuel feed rate
and/or missed ignitions.
Pellet fuel quality can greatly fluctuate. We recommend using
premium grade fuel with ash content less than 1%. Even in some
fuel labeled “premium” ash content can vary from bag to bag
and possibly exceed 1%. High ash fuel, or lack of maintenance,
can cause the firepot to fill up and thus create a potential for
smoking, sooting and possible hopper fires.
Always burn dry fuel. Burning fuel with high moisture content
takes heat from the fuel and tends to cool the appliance,
robbing heat from your home. Damp pellet fuel can clog the
feed system.
We recommend that you buy fuel in multi-ton lots whenever
possible. Buying large quantities of fuel at once will greatly
reduce the number of times the feed adjustments will need to
be made. However, we do recommend trying various brands
before purchasing multi-ton lots to ensure your satisfaction.
CB1200-I Pellet Insert
B. General Operating Information
1. Thermostat Calls For Heat
The appliance is like most modern furnaces; when the thermostat
calls for heat, your appliance will automatically light and deliver
heat. When the room is up to temperature and the thermostat
is satisfied, the red call light will shut off and the appliance will
shut down. Figure 25.1.
2. Heat Output Controls
This appliance is equipped with a heat output control switch that
has three settings or burn rates; low, medium and high. The
appliance will turn on and off as the thermostat demands. When
the thermostat calls for heat, the appliance will always start up
on High. After burning approximately 4 minutes, the appliance
will then burn at the rate at which it was originally set. If the
appliance is set at one of the lower settings, it will run quieter
but takes longer to heat up an area than if it were set at a higher
burn rate. Regardless of the burn rate, when the area is warm
enough to satisfy the thermostat, the appliance will shut off.

2. Shelled Field Corn
Shelled field corn can be an efficient and economical fuel. We
recommend using a 50-50 blend of corn and wood pellets. The
only change in operation; 1) the feed rate may require a slight
adjustment and 2) firepot will require more frequent cleanings.

be on.
E. Fire Characteristics
A properly adjusted fire with the heat output control switch set
on “HIGH” has a short active flame pattern that extends out
of the firepot approximately 4 to 6 inches (102-105mm). If
the fire has tall flames with black tails and seems somewhat
lazy, the feed rate will need to be reduced. If the fire is not 4
inches to 6 inches (102-105mm) tall, increase the feed rate.
A medium and low setting will give a shorter flame. The flame
will rise and fall somewhat. This is normal.
F. Feed Rate Adjustment Instructions
The feed adjustment control rod is factory set, and should
be adequate for most fuels.
bottom of the hopper and set loose at the factory so the fuel
adjustment control rod will slide by only loosening the wing
nut. Do not re-tighten bottom set screw.
However, if the flame height is too high or too low, you will
need to adjust the feed rate. Wait until the appliance has been
burning for 15 minutes before making your adjustments and
a
llow 15 minutes for feed adjustment to take effect.
1. Open the hopper lid and locate the fuel adjustment control
rod.
2. Loosen the wing nut on the rod.
3. Adjust the fuel adjustment control rod towards the "+"

G. Ignition Cycles
1. During each ignition cycle, it is normal to see some smoke
in the firebox. The smoke will stop once the fire starts.
2. The convection blower will automatically turn on after your
appliance has reached the set temperature. This blower
transfers heat from your appliance into the room, and will
continue to run after the thermostat has stopped calling
for heat until the appliance has cooled down.
3. Occasionally the appliance may run out of fuel and shut
itself down. When this happens, the red call light will be
on. To restart it, fill the hopper and press the reset button.
When you press the reset button the red call light will go
out. Release the button and the light will come back on.
You should see a fire shortly. If not, follow the instructions

ISSUESSOLUTIONS
1. Metallic noise.1. Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as
it heats up and cools down, similar to the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not
affect the operation or longevity of your appliance.
2. Ash buildup on glass.2. This is normal. Clean the glass.
3. Glass has turned dirty.3. Excessive build up of ash. The lower burn settings will
produce more ash, the higher burn settings produce
less. The more it burns on low the more frequent cleaning of the glass is required.
4. Fire has tall flames with black tails and is lazy.4. The feed rate needs to be reduced or the firepot needs
cleaning. Heat exchanger or exhaust blower needs
cleaning.
5. Smokey start-up or puffs of smoke from the airwash. 5. Either the firepot is dirty or there is too much fuel at
start-up and not enough air. Close down feed rate 1/4
inch (6mm) at a time until this no longer happens.
6. Large flame at start-up.6. This is normal. Flame will settle down once the fire is
established.

Maintaining & Servicing Your Appliance
A. Proper Shutdown Procedure
CAUTION
Shock and Smoke Hazard
• Turn down thermostat, let appliance completely
cool and exhaust blower must be off. Now you
can unplug appliance before servicing.
• Smoke spillage into room can occur if appliance
is not cool before unplugging.
• Risk of shock if appliance not unplugged before
servicing appliance.
.
C. General Maintenance
1. Types of Fuel
Depending on the type of fuel you are burning will dictate
how often you have to clean your firepot.
If the fuel you are burning has a high dirt or ash content
or you are burning shelled field corn, it may be necessary
to clean the firepot more than once a day.
Dirty fuel will cause clinkers to form in the firepot. A clinker
is formed when dirt, ash or a non-burnable substance is
heated to 2000°F (1093°C) and becomes glass-like. See
“D” page 35 in this section for more details on fuels with
high ash content.

2. Cleaning Firepot with Cleaning Rod & Firepot
Clean-Out Tool
•Frequency: Daily or more often as needed
•By: Homeowner
a. Be sure the appliance is allowed to cool, has been
unplugged and the exhaust blower is off. If you are
just cleaning the firepot, there is no need to unplug the
appliance.
b. Pull firepot cleaning rod OUT and IN a couple of times
to help shake debris loose. If rod is hard to pull, it may
be necessary to use your firepot clean-out tool to chip
away material that has built up on the bottom plate of
the firepot and to push out any clinkers. Larger clinkers
may have to be removed from the top of the firepot.
Corn clinkers can be especially difficult to break up.
c. The firepot floor plate must be fully closed when
finished. See Figure 27.1 on page 27.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
• NEVER pull firepot cleaning rods or cleaning
slide plates when appliance is operating. Hot
pellets may fall into ashpan and may start a
fire or have mis-starts due to lack of vacuum.
3. Ash Removal from Firebox
•Frequency: Weekly or more frequently depending on
ash build-up.
•By: Homeowner
a. Allow the appliance to completely cool down. There
must not be any hot ashes in the firebox during
cleaning. Turn the thermostat on and then immediately
off to start the exhaust blower on its cycle time. It will
pull fly ash out the exhaust instead of into the room.
b. Frequent cleaning of the ash in the firebox will help
slow down the build-up of ash in the exhaust blower
and vent system.
c. Open door. Remove ash with an ash vacuum or whisk
broom and small dust pan.
d. This ash is deposited in the same ash pan as the
firepot debris. The ash pan should be emptied every
time you clean the firebox. Remember to place the ash
and debris into a metal or non-combustible container.
See Disposal of Ashes.
WARNING
Disposal of Ashes
• Ashes should be placed in metal container
with tight fitting lid.
• Ashes should be retained in closed container
until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
4. Cleaning Ash Pan
•Frequency: Weekly or every 5 bags of fuel
•By: Homeowner
Locate the ash pan underneath the firepot and using a
slight pull up and out remove the ash pan. Empty into
a non-combustible container and re-install ash pan.
See Disposal of Ashes.
5. Disposal of Ashes
•Frequency: As needed
•By: Homeowner
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a
tight-fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should
be placed on a non-combustible floor or on the ground,
well away from all combustible materials, pending final
disposal.
If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise
locally dispersed, they should be retained in the
closed container until all cinders have been thoroughly
cooled.
WARNING
Heat exchanger cleaning rods may be warm
to the touch. For safety purposes wear
gloves.
Do not pull heat exchanger cleaning rods
while appliance is operating.
Push cleaning rods IN when done, DO NOT
leave cleaning rods OUT. Injury can occur.
6. Cleaning Heat Exchanger Chambers & Drop Tube
•Frequency: Weekly or every 1 ton of fuel
•By: Homeowner
The amount of ash buildup in the firepot will be a good
guide to determine how often you should clean the heat
exchangers.
a. Allow the appliance to completely cool down before
pulling the cleaning rods. Turn the thermostat on and
then immediately off to start the exhaust blower on its
cycle time. It will pull fly ash out the exhaust instead
of into the room.
b. To access the cleaning rods lift the hopper lid. Both
black bent handle pull rods are located close to the
face of the appliance to the left and right side.
c. To clean, pull the rods straight out until it stops,
approximately 20 inches (508mm). Slide the rods
OUT and IN a couple of times.

(3mm) to 3/16 inch (9.5mm) from the door rope channel.
c. It should show signs of compaction all the way around
the door where the rope contacts the face of the appliance. Confirm there are no air leaks.
12. Cleaning the Hopper
•Frequency: Monthly or after burning 1 ton of fuel
•By: Homeowner
After burning approximately 1 ton of fuel or changing
fuels you will need to clean the hopper to prevent sawdust build-up.
A combination of sawdust and pellets on the auger
reduces the amount of fuel supply to the firepot. This
can result in nuisance shutdowns and mis-starts.
a.
Be sure the appliance is allowed to cool, has been
unplugged and the exhaust blower is off.
b Empty the hopper of any remaining pellets.
c. Vacuum the hopper and feed tube.

15. Soot and Fly Ash: Formation & Need for Removal
in Exhaust Venting System.
•Frequency: Yearly or more frequently depending on
ash build-up.
•By: Qualified Service Technician/Homeowner
Be sure the appliance is allowed to cool, has been unplugged
and the exhaust blower is off.
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.
At start-up if there is incomplete combustion, or if there is a
shutdown or incorrect operation of the appliance it will lead
to some soot formation. This will collect in the exhaust venting system.
The venting system may need to be cleaned at least once a
year or more often depending upon the quality of your fuel
or if there is a lot of horizontal pipe sections. Ash will build
up more quickly in the horizontal sections.

16. Preparing Firebox for Non-Burn Season
•Frequency: Yearly
•By: Homeowner
a. Be sure the appliance is allowed to cool, has been
unplugged and the exhaust blower is off.
b.
Remove all ash from the firebox and vacuum thoroughly.
c. Paint all exposed steel, including cast-iron.
•
Use the Touch-Up paint supplied with the appliance;
or,
• Purchase paint from your local dealer.
• Must use a high-temperature paint made specificially for heating appliances.

D. High Ash Fuel Content Maintenance
•Frequency: When the ash build-up exceeds more
than half way up the firepot.
•By: Homeowner
Poor quality pellet fuel, or lack of maintenance, can create
conditions that make the firepot fill quickly with ashes and
clinkers.
This condition makes the appliance susceptible to overfilling the firepot with pellets which may result in smoking,
sooting and possible hopper fires. Figure 35.1 shows an
example where the firepot overfills, pellets back up into the
feed tube and ash has accumulated in the firebox.
An inefficient and non-economical method of burning of
fuel caused by poor quality pellet fuel is shown in Figure
35.2.
The correct flame size when good quality, premium pellet
fuel is burned is shown in Figure 35.3.
If the ash buildup exceeds the half way point in the firepot
IMMEDIATE ATTENTION AND CLEANING IS REQUIRED.

The feed system is located behind the firebox 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 firepot.
5. Firepot
The firepot is made of high quality ductile iron and has a
cleaning pull-out rod. The floor of the firepot opens for
cleaning when you pull out the rod. Be sure that the floor
returns to a completely closed position or your appliance
will not operate properly.
6. Fuse
The fuse is located on the right side of the appliance behind
the side panel. The fuse will blow should a short occur and
shut off power to the appliance.
ο
F (93°C) in the firepot.
When describing the location of a component
part it is always AS YOU FACE THE FRONT
OF THE APPLIANCE.
7. Heat Exchangers
The heat exchangers transfer heat from the exhaust system
into convection air. There are 2 clean out rods located under
the heat exchangers.
8. Heat Output Switch
The heat output switch is located on the right side of firebox,
behind right side panel. The function of the heat output
switch is to regulate the burn rates; low, medium and high
settings.
9.Igniter
The igniter is mounted on the base of the firepot. Combustion
air travels over the red hot igniter creating super heated air
that ignites the pellets.
10. Junction Box And Wiring Harness
The junction box is located on the right side of the appliance,
behind the right front access panel. The junction box and
wiring harness are replaced as one component.
11. Power Supply
The power outlet is located on the right side of the appliance.
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 at least 600 watts of
power, or with an inverter at least 800 watts of power, available
for the appliance during the start cycle.
12. Red Call Light
The red call light is on the right side behind the right side
panel. The function of the red call light is to indicate that the
thermostat is calling for heat.
13. Reset Button
The reset button is located on the right side of firebox
behind right side panel. The function of the reset button is
to momentarily open the thermostat circuit, which restarts
the system.
14. Thermocouple
The thermocouple is located on top of the firepot 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.
15. Thermostat
The appliance is designed to run on a 12 volt AC thermostat.
The heat anticipator, if present, should be set on the lowest
setting available.

16. Snap Disc #1 (Convection Blower) 125°F
Snap disc #1 is located on the right side of the firebox. There
are 2 purple wires connected to it. This snap disc turns the
convection blower on and off as needed. Power is always
present at snap disc #1.
Snap Disc #2 (Fuel Delivery Interrupt) 200°F
17.
Snap disc #2 is located on the back side of the feed drop
tube. There is 1 orange wire and 1 black wire connected to
it. This snap disc will turn off the feed system, which will turn
off the appliance if an overfire condition should occur or if the
convection blower should fail to operate. If this occurs the
snap disc with automatically reset itself.
18.
Snap Disc #3 (Burn Back Protector) 250°F
Snap disc #3 is mounted on the right side of the auger tube
just below feed motor and has a reset button. To access
it remove the right side panel. If the fire tries to burn back
into the feed system or push exhaust up the feed tube, this
snap disc will shut the entire system off. This disc must be
manually reset.
19. Vacuum Switch
The vacuum switch is located at the rear of the appliance.
This switch turns the feed system on when vacuum is present
in the firebox. The vacuum switch is a safety device to shut
off the feed motor if the exhaust or the heat exchanger
system is dirty or plugged or if the firebox door is open.
