New Trager Junior Elite... fan not working?

[nursewizzle]

My wife bought me this Trager, we got it delivered today, got it put together. Firing it up for the first time. The instructions say to ""feel the air movement from the Draft Inducer Fan". Looking under the hopper, there were two different size fans running, but I don't feel a noticeable movement of air near the Firepot. Should I feel something blowing?

You should feel some air. Did you fire it up? If the airflow is good you will see a blazing fire in there:

Returning it, ordered a GMG

I bet you'll be happier with the GMG...which model did you order?  There are several members here who cook on a Daniel Boone.

Congrats on the new pit and good luck with it!

I think the Daniel Boone is the one I got a well. The smaller model. Used it to do a pork tenderloin and some brats today.
