B. SAFETY TIMING:

1. Let the burner run for about 5 minutes. Then remove one

of Flame Detector leads from the “F” terminals. After a
time period corresponding to the safety timing has
elapsed, the control should lock out on safety, stopping
the burner and causing the red Safety Reset Indicator
Light to glovi/.

2.

Open the line switch.

3. Replace Flame Detector lead removed in step 1.
4.
Wait about 3 minutes. Then operate the manual reset

button on top of control.

C. HIGH LIMIT AND THERMOSTAT CHECK:

1. Close the line switch to start the burner.

2.

Lower the setting of the high limit control to its lowest

setting. This should stop the burner, unless furnace or
boiler temperature is below the minimum setting of the
high limit.

3. Return high limit control to its proper setting. Burner

should restart.

4. With the burner running, turn thermostat to its lowest

setting. This should stop the burner, unless actual room

temperature is below the lowest setting of the thermo­

stat. (Note: On systems supplying domestic hot water,
burner will continue to run if low limit control is not
satisfied.)

5. Return thermostat to its proper setting.

D. FLAME DETECTOR CHECK: (This test is not required if

the control performs as described in test A.)

If the burner starts but the control locks out (stopping the
burner), check the flame detector as follows:

1. Open the line switch.
2.
Connect one end of a wire jumper to, one of the "F”

terminals.

3.

Start the burner by closing the line switch. As soon as

flame has been established, connect other end of the
wire jumper to the other “F” terminal. WARNING: The
control provides no safety protection with this jumper

installed. Do NOT leave burner in this condition except
for making this check.

If the control still locks out with the jumper installed,

the control should be replaced. If the control does not

lock out, however, check the operation of the 956 flame
detector as follows:

4. If safety lockout problem Is of an occasional nature, the

following additional check may be made to Insure that
flame detector location Is not a marginal one:

(a) Disconnect flame detector leads from “F” terminals.

D. FLAME DETECTOR CHECK (Continued):

(b) Attach a jumper wire to one “F” terminal. Start burn­

er. Then immediately connect jumper wire to the
other “F" terminal. Burner should continue to run.

(c) With burner running, attach flame detector leads to

an accurate ohmmeter. Reading of ohmmeter should

be below 1000 ohms, and preferably as low as 500
ohms.

(NOTE: If indicator of ohmmeter remains steady,
readings up to 2000 ohms should also be acceptable.
Generally, though, the lower the reading, the better
the application, and less likely the chance of a varia­
tion in the burner flame causing a safety lock-out.)

(d) If resistance of flame detector is over 1000 ohms, it

may not be able to see the burner flame properly.

Check alignment of the flame detector through the

hole in the static pressure disc. Clean this hole if it
is blocked by foreign matter. Check for broken “F”
wires.

(e) If flame detector alignment is good but resistance

is still high, readjustment of burner flame and/or
nozzle replacement may be necessary (according to
burner manufacturer’s instructions).

(f) WARNING: Be sure to remove wire jumper after

finishing this flame detector check.

OPERATION OF MANUAL LOCKOUT

LEVER ON SAFETY SWITCH

To insure shutdown of burner during servicing, push in on
Safety Reset Indicator Light to trip Safety Switch, causing the

Reset Button to pop out and Indicator Light to glow.

CAUTION: ELECTRIC SHOCK IS STILL A POSSIBILITY.

Although lockout of safety switch will interrupt
the entire line voltage circuit to burner, terminal

No. 1 (power supply) will remain "Hot".

When burner servicing is finished, simply push in on Reset

Button to reset the Safety Switch,
