See the attachment for the wiring diagram.
The heating element is regulated by the Operating Thermostat (Item 8 In Section 3 of the parts). It opens at 155 degrees F and then re-closes at 130.
This is with the internal heater off.
The thermostat also has an internal heater built into it. This adds heat to the thermostat and the amount of current going to it is regulated by the temperature setting. It adds heat to the thermostat so that it cycles more often which results in less heat output from the main heating element.
