2. Inspect burner, pilot and primary air inlet holes

on injector holder for dust and dirt (see Figure

36).

3. Blow air through the ports/slots and holes in

the burner.

4. Check the injector holder located at the end

of the burner tube again. Remove any large

particles of dust, dirt, lint or pet hair with a

soft cloth or vacuum cleaner nozzle.

5. Blow air into the primary air holes on the

injector holder.

6. In case any large clumps of dust have now been

pushed into the burner repeat steps 3 and 4.

Clean the pilot assembly also. A yellow tip on the

pilot flame indicates dust and dirt in the pilot as-

sembly. There is a small pilot air inlet hole about

two inches from where the pilot flame comes out

of the pilot assembly (see Figure 37). With the unit

off, lightly blow air through the air inlet hole. You

may blow through a drinking straw if compressed

air is not available.

LOGS

• If you remove logs for cleaning, refer to Install-

ing Logs,

page 16, to properly replace logs.

• Replace log(s) if broken or chipped (dime-sized

or larger).

MAIN BURNER

Periodically inspect all burner flame holes with

the heater running. All slotted burner flame holes

should be open with yellow flame present. All

round burner flame holes should be open with a

small blue flame present. Some burner flame holes

may become blocked by debris or rust, with no

flame present. If so, turn off heater and let cool.

Remove blockage. Blocked burner flame holes

will create soot.
