STARTUP AND CHECKOUT

WARNING

Fire or Explosion Hazard

Can cause property damage, severe injury, or 

death.

1. Do not force the gas control knob. Use only 

your hand to turn the gas control knob. Never 

use any tools.

2. If the gas control knob will not operate by hand, 

call a qualified service technician to replace 

the gas control.

Gas Control Knob Settings

The gas control knob settings are as follows:

OFF: Prevents gas flow to main burner.

ON: Permits main burner gas flow. Under control of the 

thermostat and direct ignition module, gas can flow to 

the main burner.

NOTE:

Gas controls are shipped with the gas control 

knob in the ON position.

Perform Gas Leak Test

WARNING

Fire or Explosion Hazard

Can cause property damage, severe injury, or 

death.

Check for gas leaks with rich soap and water 

solution anytime work is done on a gas control.

Gas Leak Test

1.

Paint all pipe connections upstream of the gas 

control with a rich soap and water solution. Bub-

bles indicate a gas leak.

2.

If a gas leak is detected, tighten the pipe connec-

tion.

3.

Stand clear while lighting main burner to prevent 

injury caused from hidden gas leaks that could 

cause flashback in the appliance vestibule. Light 

the main burner.

4.

With the main burner in operation, paint all pipe 

joints (including flanges) and gas control inlet and 

outlet with rich soap and water solution.

5.

If another leak is detected, tighten adapter screws, 

joints, and pipe connections.

6.

Replace the part if gas leak can not be stopped.

Turn On System

Rotate the gas control knob counterclockwise 

 to 

ON.

Turn On Main Burner

Follow instructions provided by appliance manufacturer 

or turn up thermostat to call for heat.

Check and Adjust Gas Input to Main Burner

CAUTION

1. Do not exceed the input rating stamped on the 

appliance nameplate, or manufacturer 

recommended burner orifice pressure for the 

size orifice(s) used. Make certain the primary 

air supply to the main burner is properly 

adjusted for complete combustion (refer to the 

appliance manufacturer instructions).

2. IF CHECKING GAS INPUT BY CLOCKING THE 

GAS METER: Make certain there is no gas flow 

through the meter other than to the appliance 

being checked. Other appliances must remain 

off with their pilots extinguished (or their 

consumption must be deducted from the meter 

reading). Convert flow rate to Btuh as 

described in Gas Controls Handbook, form 70-

2602, and compare to Btuh input rating on 

appliance nameplate.

3. IF CHECKING GAS INPUT WITH A MANOMETER 

(PRESSURE GAUGE): Be sure gas control is in 

OFF position before removing outlet pressure 

tap plug to connect manometer (pressure 

gauge). Also turn gas control knob back to OFF 

when removing gauge and replacing plug. 

Before removing inlet pressure tap plug, shut 

off gas supply at the manual valve in the gas 

piping to the appliance or, for LP, at the tank. 

Also shut off gas supply before disconnecting 

manometer and replacing plug. Repeat Gas 

Leak Test at plug with main burner operating.

Standard Pressure Regulator

1.

Check the manifold pressure listed on the appli-

ance nameplate. Gas control outlet pressure 

should match the nameplate.

2.

With the main burner operating, check the gas con-

trol flow rate using the meter clocking method or 

pressure using a manometer connected to the out-

let pressure tap on the gas control. See Fig. 4.
