To set the HLX or AF2 nozzle-to-head position loosen the set 
screw allowing the head assembly to be moved forward and 
backward.  Set the gauge against head as shown in Figure 7.   
Move the head assembly until it makes contact with the nozzle 
face and tighten set screw.

The V head utilizes a two piece adjusting plate.  To set  the "Z" 
dimension (1-3/4"), fi rst place the adjusting plate in the 0 posi-
tion and tighten the mounting screw.  Loosen the acorn nut on 
the second plate (and the spline nut, see Figure 9), to permit 
free nozzle line movement.
Place the gauge edge against the leading edge of the head, 
and align the 

C

 mark with the end of the conic shroud shown 

This gauge can also 
be used to check 
and set the proper 
gap between the AFII 
motor and the blower 
wheel (0.060") see 
Figure 12.

For L heads with straight shroud

, set the "Z" dimension 

(1-3/8") by placing  the gauge edge on the leading  edge  of 
the head, and aligning the

 S

 pointer mark with the end of the 

straight shroud. 

For L heads with conic shroud

, set the "Z" dimension (1-

The "Z" or zero dimension is important because it locates the 
nozzle for the precise relationship with the combustion head.  
To set the "Z" dimension for FBX and F heads, position the 
gauge as shown in Figure 6 and loosen the nozzle line elec-
trode assembly so that it can be moved forward or backward in 
the air tube until the nozzle becomes fl ush against the gauge.  
Tighten the nozzle line escutcheon plate screw to lock this "Z" 
dimension securely.

in Figure 10. 
Tighten the acorn 
nut (this will not 
require further 
adjustment).
To adjust the 
head assembly to 
the desired head 
setting, loosen 
the adjusting 
plate screw (see 
Figure 9) and 
move the adjust-
ing plate forward 
to the required 
setting.  Check 
the appliance 
label/manual for 
correct settings. 
Tighten the 
adjusting plate 
screw and spline 
nut.  

This gauge can be used to check the AFII fi ring pin stop screw 

lengths (see Figure 11).  
To check, place the bot-
tom edge of the fi ring pin 
head against the edge of 
the gauge and read the 
number indicated on the 
gauge at the end of the 
pin.  This number should 
be the same as the 
number stamped into the 
head of the fi ring pin.
