BLOWER

EN
USE ONLY WOLF STEEL APPROVED OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES AND REPLACEMENT PARTS WITH
THIS APPLIANCE. USING NON-LISTED ACCESSORIES (BLOWERS, DOORS, LOUVRES, TRIMS, ETC.)
COULD RESULT IN A SAFETY HAZARD AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY AND CERTIFICATION.
ENSURE THAT THE BLOWER'S POWER CORD IS NOT IN CONTACT WITH ANY SURFACE OF THE
APPLIANCE TO PREVENT ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR FIRE DAMAGE. DO NOT RUN THE POWER
Drywall dust will penetrate into the blower bearings, causing irreparable damage. Care must be taken to prevent
drywall dust from coming into contact with the blower or its compartment. Any damage resulting from this
condition is not covered by the warranty policy. Use of the blower increases the output of heat.
The 1402 inserts comes equipped with two blowers, while the 1101 has one blower. These blowers are thermally
activated and will not operate until the thermal switch reaches temperature (approximately 15-30 minutes
depending on the intensity of the fire). The thermal switch for the 1402 is located on the right hand side of the unit
and the 1101 has a thermal switch located at the back on the blower access door. When first starting the fire,
the switch may be impeded by a large log or an unevenly burning fire, causing the blowers to cycle on and off. To
control this, either build your fire up evenly or turn down the blowers until the right side of the firebox is hot.

AIR CONTROL

THIS WOOD APPLIANCE HAS A MANUFACTURER-SET MINIMUM LOW BURN RATE THAT MUST
NOT BE ALTERED. IT IS AGAINST FEDERAL REGULATIONS IN THE UNITED STATES TO ALTER THIS
SETTING OR OTHERWISE OPERATE THIS WOOD APPLIANCE IN A MANNER INCONSISTENT WITH
Draft is the force which moves air from the firebox up through the
chimney. The amount of draft in your chimney depends on the length
and diameter of chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions and
other factors including the amount of heat generated by the fire
which can be measured by an appliance thermometer.
Adjusting the air control regulates the temperature. The draft can be
adjusted from a low burn rate with the handle in fully, to a fast burn
rate with the handle fully out.
Inadequate draft may cause back-puffing into the room through the
appliance and chimney connector points and may cause plugging of
the chimney. Too much draft may cause an excessive temperature in the appliance, glowing red appliance parts
or chimney connectors or an uncontrollable burn which can lead to a chimney fire or permanent damage to the
appliance.
Do not operate your appliance for longer than 30 minutes with the draft control on "HIGH" (fully open).
6.4 FIRE EXTINGUISHERS / SMOKE & CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS
NOTE: Always check your smoke and CO detectors are working properly.
All homes with a solid fuel burning appliance should have at least one fi re extinguisher in a central location,
known to all and at least one smoke detector and carbon monoxide (CO) detector in the room containing the
appliance. If the smoke detector sounds an alarm, correct the cause but do not de-activate or relocate the
smoke detector. If the carbon monoxide detector sounds an alarm, immediately vent the area, evacuate and
call your local fi re department.
