7.2 SPARK IGNITER

located in the body of the burner (see Fig. 7.1).
The igniter may be HOT, therefore care should

from the unit after the unit has cooled to room
temperature.

the ON/OFF switch on the control panel,
to the OFF position. Disconnect AC power
from the unit.

CAUTION!
The igniter may be hot
5. The igniter is gapped at 1/8-inch. If there is a
substantial erosion of the spark gap or
ground electrode, the igniter should be
replaced. If carbon build-up is present, clean
the igniter using fine emery cloth. Repeated
carbon build-up on the igniter is an indication
that a check of the combustion settings is
required (see Chapter 4 for combustion
calibration).
6. Prior to reinstalling the igniter, a high tem-
perature anti-seize compound must be
applied to the igniter threads.
7. Reinstall the igniter Do not over tighten the
igniter. A slight snugging up is sufficient.
