WELCOME BACK TO PELLET TECH 101!
This video will show you how to change the rotation of an Auger Motor Gearbox Assembly. Most commonly done on pellet stoves as some require clockwise and other counter clockwise. Be sure to tighten the screws down evenly and snug.
1. Unscrew the four screws holding the armature and magnet in place.
2. Remove the armature *Be sure not to lose the plastic washers on the armature*
3. Take the black magnet and flip it completely upside down.
4. Replace your armature *Be sure the plastic washers are in place*
5. Re-screw the four screws back into place.
6. This will reverse the polarity of the motor and cause the shaft to spin the opposite direction.

on pelpro60 (2014) vintage, auger moves, butno pellets drop. what direction should auger rotate, looking at auger end? thanks.
Thanks for contacting us Patrick. The PelPro PP60 model will use a specialty 2 RPM Synchronous auger motor. This motor only rotates one way, the direction cannot be reversed like a standard auger gear motor. We would have to inspect one to determine the rotation as we don’t currently have that info in the specs or on the motor label. Let’s first make sure you have the correct auger motor in place. Here is a reference https://pellethead.com/product/pelpro-pleasant-hearth-quadrafire-synchronous-auger-feed-motor-2-rpm-oem/
Keep us posted, Happy to help.
