MODELS WS-1 and WS-2 WALL SWITCH AND TIMER

YOUR PETERSON LOG SET IS TO BE BURNED

ONLY IN A FULLY VENTED, NONCOMBUSTIBLE

FIREPLACE WITH DAMPER AND CHIMNEY FREE

OF ANY OBSTRUCTIONS. THE FIREPLACE MUST

BE DESIGNED AND APPROVED TO BURN WOOD.

Like burning natural ﬁ rewood, your Peterson log set is

designed to burn with a yellow smoky ﬂ ame. For this

reason, it must be adequately vented. Be sure your

ﬁ replace damper is fully open when you burn your

gas log set. The smallest dimension of the chimney

ﬂ ue must be at least 8". If it is smaller, DO NOT USE

A PETERSON LOG SET. If fumes from the burner

emerge into the room when the damper is fully open,

creating a smell like a smoldering oil lamp, it indicates

that the ﬁ replace draft is defective. Check the chimney

ﬂ ue for obstructions. DO NOT OPERATE LOGS UNTIL

THE FIREPLACE DRAFT IS CORRECTED. Check

with your dealer or installer. Do not use ﬁ rewood with

this unit.

Important: READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS

CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING

THE INSTALLATION OF YOUR

LOG SET AND CONTROL.

Do not store or use gasoline or other ﬂ ammable

vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any

other appliance.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

If you smell gas:

1. Extinguish any open ﬂ ame; open windows.

2. Don’t use electrical switches or your phone.

3. Immediately call your gas supplier from a

neighbor’s phone.

4. If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the

ﬁ re department.

Installation and service must be performed by a

qualiﬁ ed professional installer, service agency,

or the gas supplier.

If the information in this manual is not

followed exactly, a ﬁ re or explosion may

result, causing property damage, personal

injury, or loss of life.

INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Be sure all cautions and warnings are observed in your APK and burner system installation and operating instructions. 5.

CONNECTING WS-1 / WS-2 WIRE LEADS TOGGLE SWITCH CONNECTION 1. Connect the two female connector wire leads from the wall switch/mechanical timer to the two male connectors on back of the toggle switch control (see Fig. 3-1). If there are no available male connectors, you will have to disconnect the toggle switch wires and connect the wall switch/mechanical timer to the back of the toggle switch. This will eliminate the use of the toggle switch and let you operate by the wall switch/mechanical timer only.
