2.

Turn on electrical power. The unit should now be
under the control of the thermostat.

3.

Turn the thermostat to the high heat reading to see
if the pilot and main burner ignite.

4.

Turn the thermostat to the lowest setting to
interrupt power to the ignition system to determine
that both the pilot burner and main burner are
extinguished.

5.

Set the thermostat at the desired setting for normal
operation.
For complete shutdown:
1. Turn the main and pilot valves to the OFF

position.

2. Shut off electric power.
3. Adjust the thermostat to the lowest setting.

Figure 12 - Main Burner Flames

NOTICE: There may be momentary and spasmodic
orange flashes in the flame. This is caused by the
burning of airborne dust particles, and not to be
confused with the yellow tipping, which is a stable
or permanent situation when there is insufficient
primary air.

1.

With unit firing, remove the pilot adjustment cap.

2.

Adjust the pilot screw to provide properly sized
flame.

PILOT ADJUSTMENT

3.

A proper pilot flame is a soft steady flame that
envelopes 3/8 to 1/2 inch (9.5 to 12.7 mm) of the
flame sensor.

4.

Replace the pilot adjustment cap.

* This schedule is for units operating within the U.S.A.
at normal altitudes of 2000 ft. (610m) or less. For
altitudes above 2,000 ft., refer to local codes, or in
absence of local codes, refer to the National Fuel Gas
Code ANSI Standard Z223-1999 (N.F.P.A. no. 54) or
the latest edition.

When installed in Canada, any references to deration
at altitudes in excess of 2000 feet (610m) are to be
ignored. At altitudes of 2000 to 4500 feet (610 to
1372m), the unit heaters must be orificed to 90% of the
normal altitude rating, and be so marked in accordance
with the CSA certification.

For correct air adjustment, close the air shutter until
yellow tips in the flame appear. Then open the air
shutter to the point just beyond the position where
yellow tipping disappears.

PRIMARY AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT

After the unit has been operated for at least 15
minutes, adjust the primary air flow to the burners. Turn
the friction-locked, manually-rotated air shutters
clockwise to close, or counterclockwise to open.
