CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Maintenance of Motors:
Cleaning:
Before attempting ANY maintenance:
1. Turn off power to the unit.
2. Unplug the power cord from outlet.
3. Let log set cool if it has been operating.
Always disconnect the appliance from the main power supply and allow it to cool before any
servicing operation.
The motors used on the fan heater and flame blower are pre-lubricated for extended bearing life and
require no further lubrication. However, periodic cleaning/vacuuming of the appliance around the air
intake and exhaust, as well as the fan heater is recommended. For heavy or continuous use, periodic
cleaning must be done more frequently. If the heater blows alternating cold and warm air, check the
fan for free movement and for debris restricting air flow. If the fan does not move freely, the unit must
be turned off and the fan replaced immediately in order to prevent further damage to the unit.
Cleaning of the log set is to be done only with a vacuum cleaner or by using a soft cloth, slightly
dampened in water (if needed, a small amount of dish soap can be added to the water) and dried
using a clean, dry soft cloth. DO NOT use any abrasive household cleaners as these products will
damage the unit.
