PUMP PURGE

NOTE: to protect the pump gears, it is advisable to lubricate the pump prior to purging a lift

system. Apply oil through the VACUUM PORT (C).

A) SINGLE LINE (GRAVITY FEED SYSTEM)

A)

Loosen the bleeder valve (A) until oil flows out. Tighten the bleeder valve securely and

start burner.

B) When bleeding the pump by pressure.

1) Loosen the bleeder valve (A).

2) Disconnect nozzle oil supply line at the pump

nozzle port (B).

3) Attach a flexible plastic tube to the pump noz­

zle port, directing the oil flow into a bucket.

4) Loosen the screws securing the air tube cov­

er, allowing it to be removed freely.

5) Holding the air tube cover in its proper loca­

tion start the burner.

6) When the solenoid valve is engaged, approx­

imately 10 seconds after starting, remove the
air tube cover and shine a light source on the

photo-cell, allowing it to see false light.

7) Run the burner until the fuel pump has been

purged of air, then tighten the bleeder valve

and immediately shut down the burner.

8} Reinstall the air tube cover and nozzle line.

9) The burner can now be started normally.

WARNING: Omitting steps 2 and 3 will result in a collection of unburned oil in the com­

bustion chamber creating

a hazardous situation upon burner startup.

B) TWO LINE (LIFT SYSTEM)

Turn off the main power source to the burner and remove the air tube cover. Shine a light
source on the photo-cell (now visible where the air tube cover was removed), return power
to the burner and activate the burner. With the light source in place, the burner will operate

in prepurge only. Once the burner is purged, turn off the power source and replace the air

tube cover. Return power to the burner. The burner is now ready to operate.

ATTENTION: It is important that the fuel line be completely sealed and free from air

leaks or any internal blockages.

IMPORTANT! WHEN THE BY-PASS PLUG IS INSTALLED, A TWO PIPE SYSTEM
MUST BE USED OR FAILURE OF THE PUMP SHAFT SEAL WILL OCCUR.
