These units are pre-tested at the factory with exactly
120 Volts A.C., 60 Hz. They are checked and adjusted
for rebox tightness, gasket leakage, motor operation
and igniter operation. The Advance is then factory set
at a mid-point adjustment and in most cases will not
need any adjustments.
The control board on the Advance is equipped with a
low draft adjustment port, located on the control face just
to the right of the igniter light. See Figure 14. This voltage
adjustment is provided to allow the unit to be adjusted
for the household voltage where the unit is going to be
in permanent operation. NOTE: The line voltage varies
from area to area and often home to home.
The low draft voltage should be adjusted to achieve
the most efcient burn on low burn or "maintenance".
This voltage adjustment allows the installer to change
the low voltage set point approximately 15 volts. This
adjustment should be done by the installer during set
up because a draft meter reading is to insure
proper set up.
If the unit is not adjusted properly, it does not cause
a safety concern. If the unit is adjusted too high, only
efciency is lost. If the unit is adjusted too low, the low
draft pressure switch will not allow the feeder motor or
the igniter to operate.
A simple draft test should be performed after
completing the ue pipe installation. To record the
results for future reference:
1. Plug unit into a 120 VAC, 60 HZ outlet.
2. Close the hopper lid, front view door, and the ash
pan. Neither pellets nor a re are required for this
test.
3. With the mode selector in the "OFF" position, turn
the feed adjuster to "TEST".
4. Record the high draft_____in W.C. (Normal is -.50
to -.60) The control will be on the High Draft for a total
of 2 minutes.
5. After 1 minute, the combustion motor will go down
to low draft and the distribution blower will go on
high. Allow approximately 15 seconds to pass for the
combustion motor to slow before checking the low
draft.
6. If the low draft is between .35 and .45, record the
reading _____ in W.C. If the reading is higher, slowly
turn the set screw counter-clockwise until the draft
lowers. If the reading is lower, very slowly turn the set
screw clockwise until the draft increases.
