*SAFETY INSPECTION OF A PREVIOUSLY INSTALLED OIL APPLIANCE
(Perform prior to SS1-R installation)
The following procedure is intended as a guide to aid in determining that an appliance is properly installed and is in safe condition
for continuing use.
This procedure is based on central furnace installations and it should be recognized that generalized procedures cannot anticipate
all situations. Accordingly, in some cases deviation from this procedure may be necessary to determine safe operation of the
equipment.
a. Install the SS1-R only on specified Rheem, Ruud, Weatherking & Heat Controller oil fired furnaces.
b. Complete this procedure prior to any attempt at modifications of the appliance or installation of the SS1-R.
c. If there is a condition which could result in unsafe operation, shut off the appliance and advise the owner
of the unsafe condition.
The following steps should be followed in making the safety inspection:
1. Visually inspect the venting system and determine there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion or other deficiencies
which could cause an unsafe condition.
2. Inspect burner and primary control for proper operation.
3. Inspect heat exchanger for cracks, openings or excessive corrosion. Check both the limit control and fan control for proper
operation.
