BLWR-FSB700-SS Blower Kit, FS Woodstoves
The blower must be plugged directly into a properly
grounded three-prong receptacle, 120 VAC, 60 Hz, single
phase. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from
this plug. Do not route power cord under or in front of
appliance.
Installation must be in accordance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition. In Canada,
the current CSA C22-1 Canadian Electrical Code - latest
edition.
DANGER: Disconnect power before servicing blower.
In the event that you remove the blower for any reason,
make sure a cover plate (available from Lennox Hearth
Products) is installed before using the heater. Excessive
rear wall temperatures will result if the stove is burned
without the cover plate. The cover plate is not necessary
if a blower has never been installed because a knock-out
will be in place to act as the cover.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Install Blower Assembly
Step 1. Remove the contents from the blower kit.
Step 2. Using a 5/32” allen wrench/T-handle remove the screws in the
round knock-out plate on the back of the stove. Bend the knockout plate back and forth until it can be removed.
Step 3. Using a 5/32” allen wrench/T-handle, remove the four screws
and washers from the back of the stove. Next, mount the blower
as shown in Figure 2 and the following instructions; Ensure the
wiring harness on the blower cage is at the bottom right when
mounted to the back heat shield of the stove. Be aware that the
blower wiring harness should be clear of the back of the firebox
and blower fan blades. The blower can now be fastened to the
back of the heat shield with the four screws and washers that
were removed earlier in this step using the 5/32” allen wrench/
T-handle. Visually inspect that the blower is centered in large
opening on the back of the heatshield. If not centered in the
opening the fan blades could make contact with the heatshield
making excessive noise. Once everything is correctly in place
you can then tighten down all four screws. Tighten the screws
moderately tight but do not over tighten as you may strip the
holes out.

Step 2. Insert a large flat head screwdriver or pry bar into the small open-
ing between the pedestal mounting flange and the bottom firebox
of the stove. Use the large screwdriver or pry bar to increase
the opening size between the firebox bottom and pedestal. See
Figure 4 - This increased opening between the pedestal and
bottom firebox will be needed to insert the snap switch bracket
mounting tabs.

between the firebox bottom and pedestal. See Figure 6.
