A blower, part# 71000, can be installed on the stove
to improve hot air distribution throughout the room.
To install the blower:
1. Remove all the contents from the blower box. Included
with the blower should be a blower speed control.
2. Remove the screws in the round knock-out plate on
the back of the stove. Bend the knock-out plate back
and forth until it can be removed.
3. Mount the blower as shown below. Make sure the cord
is at the bottom when mounted and that it does not
touch the stove anywhere. Remove the four screws
from the back of the stove. Use one of the four screws
with a washer on it and attach the blower through
one of the four mounting legs on the blower housing.
Check to make sure that the fan blade does not touch
the large hole in the rear heatshield. (Spin it to check
all directions). Finish attaching the blower with the
other three screws. Tighten the screws moderately
tight but do not over tighten as you may strip the
holes out.
4. Plug in the fan speed control into the nearest outlet,
then plug the blower cord into the speed control. Do
not route the fan power cord under the stove or allow
it to come in contact with any surface of the stove.
Read the section Starting and Maintaining a Fire for
proper fan operating instructions on page 15.
WARNING: In the event that you remove the blower
for any reason, make sure a cover plate available
from Lennox Hearth Products is reinstalled before
using the heater. Excessive rear wall temperatures
will result if the stove is burned without the cover
plate.

1. Burn only dry, well-seasoned wood for maximum heat
output. In some states it is illegal to burn wet wood
or anything other than clean, dry wood products.
2. Your stove is designed to operate with the door closed!
Operate only with the door shut tightly at all times
except when loading wood.
3. DO NOT hit or move the baffle brick while loading
wood. Occasionally check the baffle. Make sure the
insulating blanket is always flush with the front of the
baffle brick. Loading oversized logs may dislodge the
baffle bricks.
4. CAUTION: THE DRAFT CONTROL MUST BE FULLY
OPEN BEFORE OPENING THE DOOR TO AVOID POS-
SIBLE COMBUSTION FLASH!! (Ignition of hot volatile
gases as the door is opened).
5. Feeding excessive amounts of fuel to the stove should
be avoided. It is important to supply it with sufficient
draft and fuel to maintain a moderately hot fire. If,
during overnight burns, heavy creosote deposits
develop inside your stove and on the door, the draft
is set too low - review your burning habits!
