Tjernland SS-1 problems

in Oil Heating
Does anyone out there know if there's supposed to be a hole on the inside of the inside enclosure that the squirrel cage fits into? I replaced a squirrel cage on a 10 yr old one and its very noisey, kind of like a harmonic screech for lack of a better term. I don't know what the old one sounded like, it was broke when I got there.

    Don't know

    about the hole. Never noticed one before, but also wasn't looking for it. A screech sounds more like the squirrel cage is hitting the housing. We always change the motor and fan as one unit. Eliminates alignment issues.

    the hole is a knockout for use with a standing pilot

    its to allow for a standing pilot.



    your supposed to open the knockout if you've got one.

    There was an error rendering this rich post.

    holes

    Are you seeing the holes that accept the metal pegs on the motor assembly?
