time is 60 to 120 seconds and non adjustabe.

Burner Adjustment
The following instructions are essential to the proper op-
eration of ELO183UF series oil furnaces. To prevent soot-
ing, these instructions must be followed in sequence:
1.
Draft
This test should be taken at the breach be-
tween the outlet of the vent connector and the baro-
metric draft control. Generally a 1/4" hole will need to
be drilled for the draft gauge to be inserted into the vent
connector.
A minimum of 0.03 draft must be established without
the burner in operation. With the burner in operation,
the draft should be 0.04 to 0.05. This is VERY critical to
the flame retention head burners.
Oil furnace installations also require careful inspection
to make sure the chimney is in good shape and can ac-
commodate the products of combustion. The tempera-
ture in the unconditioned space will also affect the draft
if long vent connectors are allowed to get too cold.
2.
Overfire Draft
This test should be taken with the
burner in operation. Remove the plug from the center
of the inspection port. Insert your draft gauge into the
hole.
A reading of the overfire draft should be 0.02 less than
the reading found in the vent connector. If a positive
reading is seen at this point, the combustion fan is
pumping too much air into the heat exchanger. Make
the necessary adjustments with the air shutter or air
band.
3.
Smoke Test
The smoke test should be taken at the
Using a smoke test gun, adjust the air so that you will
have just a trace (between 0 and #1) of smoke. If the
burner is producing more than #1 smoke, adjust the air
shutter (primary) and air band (secondary) to reduce
the smoke. See figure 15. To adjust the air shutter,
loosen the top screw on the air shutter (and lower
screw, if necessary). Then, rotate the shutter until the
desired smoke level is achieved. If smoke cannot be
reduced to the desired level by moving the air shutter,
adjust the air band to increase the air. To adjust the air
band, loosen the air band screw and rotate the
band.
This is the
starting
point.
Do not stop here.

. From the results of this test, a window of op-
eration" will be determined. This window of operation
establishes some tolerance. The tolerance the installer
builds in provides room within the set-up for those
things which might affect combustion. Those things
