Step 9. Reinstallation of inner door assembly. (cont.)

b) Clean any gasket residue or other debris from combustion chamber surface before installing
  the inner door/gasket assembly.

c) Position thermocouple, pilot tube and Piezo wire against left side inner door flange gasket.

DO NOT ROUTE

THROUGH RADIUSED CHANNEL WITH FEEDLINE.

 Be sure that thermocouple and pilot tube are not

  in position  to interfere with outer jacket burner access door when reinstalled.

Position thermocouple,

pilot tube and Piezo wire.

WARNING

A seal breach may result in a fire or

explosion causing property damage,

personal injury or death.

d) Firmly place right side inner door flange against the left side inner door flange and secure with (2) hex drive
  screws from step 6c. 

DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN SCREWS

.

e) Align right side inner door to combustion chamber and verify the fastener holes of the combustion
  chamber are aligned with the right side inner door slotted openings. Verify seal integrity around combustion
  opening. Secure right side inner door using (2) hex drive screws from step 6b.

 DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN

 SCREWS. 

Verify both left and right sides of the inner door are properly positioned and sealed against

  the combustion chamber.

Step 10.

Reconnect wire leads from gas valve to resettable thermal switch (See photo in step 6). Note: wire
terminations are interchangeable with either resettable thermal switch connection.

Step 11.

Replace outer jacket burner access door.

Step 12.

Reconnect gas supply to gas valve.

Step 13.

Resume water supply to water heater. Be sure tank is full of water.

Step 14.

To resume operation follow the instructions located on the lighting instruction label or the lighting instructions
located in the installation and operation manual.

Verify threaded hole

alignment with slotted

openings in inner door.

Secure flange with

¼" drive screws.
