Appendix A
Optional Blower
The optional blower kit (kit #WODC.BLOW) is equipped with a
three prong power cord and may be installed at any time. Follow
installation instructions supplied with the kit. Route power supply
cord away from heater.
Electrical rating: 115 volts A.C.-.84 amps.
Fan output rating: 125 CFM
Blower Operation
To ensure peak performance from your stove, allow the appliance
to reach operating temperature (approximately 30 minutes), before
turning on the blower.
Automatic:
To operate the blower automatically, set the rocker
switch on the side of the fan housing to "Auto" and set the speed
control to desired setting. This will allow the fan to turn on as the
stove heats up to operating temperature. It will also shut the blower
off after the fi re has gone out and the unit cooled to below a useful
heat output range.
Manual:
To manually operate the blower, set the rocker switch to
"Man" and set the speed control to desired setting. This will bypass
the sensing device and allow full control of the blower.
Switching from "Auto" to "Man" or selecting speed may be done
anytime.
Optional Outside Air Adaptor
The adaptor is only required if the blower kit is to be installed and
outside combustion air to be ducted to rear of pedestal or leg
adapter.
Installation:
Remove blower kit if already installed. Place adaptor with the
4" round hole facing up and opposite end covering the room air
knockout hole on the back of the pedestal. Mark attachment holes
on pedestal base and drill with 1/8" bit. Attach with #8 x 1/2" screws
and reinstall fan. Combustion air from outside can now be attached
to the 4" round collar.
