Unit Start−Up & Adjustments
Before starting unit, make sure the oil tank is adequately
filled with clean No. 1 or No. 2 furnace oil.
NOTE − Water rust or other containments in oil supply sys-
tem will cause malfunction and failure of the internal parts
of the fuel unit.
CAUTION
Never burn garbage or paper in the heating system.
Never leave papers near or around the unit.
CAUTION
Blower door must be in place before start-up.
1− Set thermostat for heating demand and turn on electri-
cal supply to unit.
2− Check initial air adjustment. All units are equipped with
an air adjustment dial on the right side of the burner.
See burner parts arrangement illustration.
3− Turn unit on. Place a can or container under the bleed
port located on the fuel pump. Loosen nut on bleed
port to release air and oil mixture from fuel line. Allow
mixture to escape until a steady stream of oil is emitted
from the port. Drain at least 1/2 pint of oil from the
pump. Retighten nut on bleed port. If lockout occurs,
press reset button and continue with bleed procedure.
NOTE − A two−line fuel system will normally bleed itself
by forcing air back to the tank through the return line.
This type of bleeding procedure is not necessary.
4− If burner fails to start, push reset button on primary
safety control and the burner motor reset button once.
See part arrangement illustration.
CAUTION
Do not push the reset button on the primary control
more than one time.
5− If burner fails to light again, refer to the troubleshooting
section in this manual.
A − Fuel Pump Pressure
Measure fuel pump pressure with unit off. Attach pressure
gauge to pump outlet. Turn unit on and check pressure and
compare to table 4. Adjust if necessary.
B − Temperature Rise
To measure temperature rise, place plenum thermometers
in warm air and return air plenums. Locate thermometer in
warm air plenum where thermometer will not see" the heat
exchanger to prevent it from picking up radiant heat. Set
thermostat to its highest setting to start unit. After plenum
thermometers have reached their highest and steadiest
readings, subtract the readings. The difference in tempera-
tures in the supply and return air plenums should approxi-
mate the temperature rise range listed in table 4 and the ap-
pliance rating plate. If not, adjust the blower motor pulley to
adjust the blower speed.
C − Limit Control
Limit Control Do not adjust from factory setting.
D − Fan Control
The fan on time of 30 seconds is not adjustable. Fan off
time (time that the blower operates after the heat demand
has been satisfied) can be adjusted by moving the delay
switches on the fan control board. Fan off time will affect
comfort and is adjustable to satisfy individual applications.
See figure 20.Set the heat fan off delay switches to either
60, 90, 120, or 150 seconds. The factory setting is 90 sec-
onds.
