L61LL BASO Safety Shutoff Device Installation Instructions
Pilot Servicing
If pilot flame problems occur, check the following:
If the pilot flame burns yellow, it may be due to dirt
or lint covering the lower portion of the pilot
burner. Remove dirt and lint using a soft brush or
a vacuum cleaner.
A flame approximately 1/2 in. (12.7 mm) high must
surround the thermocouple tip (see Figure 3).
Because this is an electrical connection, the
thermocouple lead connection to the BASO power
unit must be clean and free of grease.
Approximately
1/2 in. (12.7 mm)

Replacement Procedure
!
WARNING: Risk of Explosion or Fire.
Shut off the gas supply at the main manual shutoff
valve before installing or servicing the L61LL. Failure
to shut off the gas supply can result in the release of
gas during installation or servicing, which can lead to
an explosion or fire, and may result in severe
personal injury or death.
!
CAUTION: Risk of Electric Shock.
Disconnect power supply before making electrical
connections to avoid electric shock.
!
WARNING: Risk of Explosion, Fire, or
Electrical Shock.
Label all wires before they are disconnected when
replacing the L61LL. Wiring errors can cause
improper or dangerous operation and may result in
an explosion, fire, or electrical shock, leading to
severe personal injury or death.
When necessary, replace the safety shutoff device as
follows:
1.
Turn off all power to the appliance.
2.
Close the main manual shutoff valve and the pilot
valve.
3.
Disconnect the thermocouple lead from the safety
shutoff device.
4.
Remove the metal snap-on cover from the old
safety shutoff device.
5.
Disconnect and label wires from the three wire
terminals and remove the device from the
appliance.
6.
Replace with the new BASO L61LL according to
Step 3 through 7 in the Installation section to
complete the installation.

Repairs
Field repairs must not be made to the L61LL safety
shutoff device. If the thermocouple meets the output
listed in Table 1 and the valve does not function,
replace the entire device. Any attempt to repair this
assembly voids the manufacturer’s warranty. For a
replacement safety shutoff device, contact the nearest
BASO Gas Products distributor.
