I thought I saw the thread for about a way to turn on only the exhaust fan while cleaning the Harmon. Typically I just use my vacuum cleaner but it would be a whole lot easier to have the fan running to vent all of the dust while cleaning the stove can someone please help
 
Leave the front door open so it will not feed pellets and turn the feed rate knob to test. The distribution blower will cycle off and on but the combustion blower will always stay on.

Thanks!

And that won't blow ash into the room?
 
No. I do it all the time. You open the door to scrape when burning. It keeps the dust going out the exhaust and not your room.
 
turn the pot up distribution fan and put the switch to manual and when the stove door is open it prevents the auger from turning and the combustion blower works. Only in this way the combustion blower will work
