Looking for manual on a Decton Russel stove division Model Blazer 36. date is 1983. It's a wood coal furnace indoor. Any help or direction would help. Looking for information on a Sychron component and hook up to the blower?
 
Weird, I've never heard of this brand before, but this is the second thread here about it in the last month.
No idea what a "syncron component" is, but if its blower control (on/off) switch of some sort, then there are lots of readily available ways to handle that...

I was thinking it was some sort of control for the blower to turn on .

The Syncron is the motor that was inside the Erie actuator that was in the draft tubes of a lot of boilers. This motor controlled the butterfly valve inside the tube that controlled the air intake (draft), usually controlled by the thermostat. One can get the actuator, or curiously, the motor is still available at wood stove/furnace supply websites. Both 110v and 24v were available. Check SupplyHouse and Woodman's Parts Plus.
