3. BEFORE fastening the controls with the 2 screws
provided, thread the supplied chain through the spare
keyhole in the draft control and attach a pendant to
the end, just like the chain that is beside it. Let the
chain down on the same side of the heat shield as the
existing chain, and attach it to the lever on the
damper motor with another pendant. Push the pen-
dant snug into the hole in the lever. Then mount the
controls to the bracket.
4. Adjust the chain on the draft control lever until it is just
snug but the damper is still closed. When the damper
motor is energized, the damper should open all the
way. Lock the chain onto the keyhole with another
pendant just like the chain beside it.
5. Wire the thermostat as shown in (Figure 15), making
sure the wall control is sufficiently away from the
direct radiation of the fireplace. Make certain that it is
at least 10 ft. away from the fireplace, but in the same
room.
CIRCULATING BLOWER (FDHB5-N)
NOTE: It is important that the wiring for the blower kit is
installed during framing so that the wiring can be easily
hidden.
1. Remove the bottom louver. (See operation #1 in the
above section.) Pull the louver from the right hand
side toward you. Lift the louver to remove the bottom
of the hinge rod from its hole. Remove the top of the
hinge rod from the top hole.
2. Remove the ash pan, to do so, you will need to
remove the plug from the inside of the firebox.
3. Remove the ash pan’s drawer. Remove the screw
located on the right hand side of the drawer at its
back.
4. Mount the blower on its 90º bracket. Be sure that the
wires are connected to the blower before mounting.
5. Hold the blower with the outlet facing up from the
back. Fit the blower through the louver opening.
6. Slide the blower into place between the two brackets.
You should see the wheels of the blower.
7. Mount the thermal switch on its support as shown in
(Figure 17). The thermal switch support is located just
beneath the bottom of the firebox on the right hand
side leg. Push the clips on to the support as far as
they will go.
NOTE: One thermal switch is all that is required
to operate the internal blower, the central heat
blower, or both.
8. Locate the provided speed control in a switch
box at a convenient location on the wall and con-
nect it with conventional 90° C 14 gauge wire
(see Figure 16).
9. Replace the ash pan drawer and screw, the
ash pan and the louver.
