To check that the nozzle is approximately centered with the 
head inside diameter on FBX and F heads place gauge in head 
and note the gauge center mark location with respect to the 
nozzle center. Rotate the gauge and check several positions. 
For NX, HLX, AF2, L and V heads, align the edge of the gauge 
with the inside diameter of the head and note the location of the 
gauge center mark with respect to the center of the nozzle. See 
Figure 5.

To position the electrode tips in front of  the face of the nozzle  
and above the center line, select one of two cross marks for 
the burners as shown in either Figure 2 or 3.  Set one tip to the 
gauge position then adjust the other to match.   Electrode tip 
setting reference chart is shown below.  (See individual instruc-
tion manuals for more details.)

Figure 1. 

F, FBX, L and V  
head settings are 
set by aligning the 
electrode tip with 
the 

5/16

" cross 

marks (Figure 2). 
After setting pro-
ceed to 'Tip Gap 
Spacing', Figure 4. 
  

Note:

 Be careful 

not to scratch the 
nozzle face.

Set the NX, HLX or 
AF2 tip positions by 
aligning the electrode 
tip with the mark 
shown in Figure 3.  

Set the electrode tip 
gap spacing (5/32”) 
by adjusting the tips 
to meet the two out-
side marks shown 
in Figure 4.  Make 
sure the tips are 
centered above the 
nozzle by maintain-
ing the center mark 
of the gauge directly 
above the nozzle 
centerline. (Also see 
Figure 1.)
