STEP THREE: HF30 TOP LOG PLACEMENT 6. TOP LOGS Using the log locator holes and pins (Figure 10A and B), place the Right Top Log (D-8) over the Right Pin on the Rear Log. Place the Center Log (C-15) onto the Center Pin on the Rear Log. Last, place the Left Rear Log onto the Left Pin on the rear log. The logs should look like Figure 9 below when completed. (See also Figure 12, following page.

STEP THREE: HF30 LOG PLACEMENT (cont’d) The Illustration below (Figure 12) shows the completed HF30 log set. FIGURE 12 Front View STEP FOUR: REMOTE RECEIVER PLACEMENT The Remote Receiver (-RE and -SE models) can be adversely affected by heat and must be placed as far forward and to the side of your CHILLBUSTER™ as possible (Figure 13A). When connecting receiver to Motordrive (“-RE” models) or Solenoid (“SE models) be sure to match red and black connectors, red to red and black to black).
PAGE 14
STEP FIVE: LIGHTING AND OPERATION (ALL MODELS) 1. Slightly push in the “EASY” Safety Valve Knob, located behind the CHILLBUSTER™ face plate on the right side (Figure 14), and turn clockwise to “OFF”. 2. Before lighting, wait at least five minutes to allow gas which may have accumulated around burner to escape, then slightly push in the “EASY” Safety Valve Knob and turn to “PILOT/OFF” (Figure 15). 3. Depress knob until air dissipates and gas flows to pilot (located on the right side behind the front burner).
PAGE 15
PILOT ADJUSTMENT (ALL MODELS) PILOT FLAME ADJUSTMENT: If adjustment is necessary, use a narrow long stem screw driver to turn pilot adjustment screw. To adjust turn clockwise for less pilot flame, counterclockwise for more pilot flame. IMPORTANT SERVICE TIP! Obstructed Pilot Air Intake Ports result in an improper gas/air mixture and a weak pilot flame. Weak pilot flame is the NUMBER 1 SERVICE ISSUE REGARDING NUISANCE SHUT-OFF.
