C. Examination and Cleaning of Flue, Burner and Jet

Once or twice a year, look through the opening (see FIG.

9) in the burner box and examine the appearance of the

burner flame which should be predominantly blue in color

when the gas thermostat knob is set to its highest position.

(Refer to FIG. 10).

If this is not the case, and if you have checked the chapter

"Generals", the flue, burner, jet, etc. should be cleaned.

D. Cleaning of Burner, Burner Jet (Refer to FIG. 11)

Proceed as follows:

1) Turn off the gas at the gas bottle.

2) By using a phillips screwdriver, remove the screw (B)

and carefully withdraw the burner cover box. Clean the

inside of the box of soot and other deposits.

3) To clean the burner, unscrew the screw (C) that fixes

the burner on the boiler tube and be careful in order not

to lose the washer.

4) Clean the inside of the burner.

5) To examine and eventually clean the burner jet, un-

screw the gas pipe union (K) and pull out the burner jet

(L).

6) Clean the jet by washing it in alcohol and blowing it

through with air.

NOTE: The jet fitted to this refrigerator is a size "45"

which is suitable for use on propane gas at 11

inches water column. The orifice in the jet is very

small and must never be cleaned by means of a pin

or similar instrument as this would damage the

orifice. It must only be cleaned as described above.

7) Reassemble the components in the reverse order to

that described above.
