Once the set temperature is reached the fan will turn off. Once
the temperature falls below the set temperature the fan will
restart. The fan will continue adjusting itself automatically to
maintain the set temperature.
For safety, the hopper is equipped with shut-off switches to
prevent the fan from stoking the fire when these doors are
open. Closing the doors will engage the switches, allowing the
fan to continue normal operation.
Check that connection is fully seated.
There is a problem with your top or bottom switch, contact
customer service and request a new switch kit
