Blower
Check the blower wheel for debris and clean if necessary.
The blower motors are pre-lubricated for extended bearing
life. No further lubrication is needed.
The blower access panel must be securely in place
when the blower and burners are operating. Gas fumes,
which could contain carbon monoxide, can be drawn
into living space resulting in personal injury or death.
WARNING
Filters
All air filters are installed external to the unit. Filters should
be inspected monthly. Clean or replace the filters when
necessary to ensure proper furnace operation. Table 3 lists
recommended filter sizes.
Exhaust and Air Intake Pipes
Check the exhaust and air intake pipes and all connections
for tightness and to make sure there is no blockage.
NOTE:
After any heavy snow, ice or frozen fog event the
furnace vent pipes may become restricted. Always check
the vent system and remove any snow or ice that may be
obstructing the plastic intake or exhaust pipes.
Electrical
1. Check all wiring for loose connections.
2. Check for the correct voltage at the furnace (furnace
operating). Correct voltage is 120 VAC ± 10%.
3. Check amp-draw on the blower motor with the blower
compartment access panel in place.

Remove gas valve/manifold assembly.
5. Remove sensor wire from sensor. Disconnect 2 pin
plug from the ignitor.
6. Disconnect wires from flame rollout switches.
7. Loosen clamps at vent elbow. Disconnect condensate
drain tubing from flue collar and remove the vent
elbow.
8. Remove four burner box screws at the vestibule panel
and remove burner box. Set burner box assembly
aside.
NOTE: If necessary, clean burners at this time. Follow
procedures outlined in Burner Cleaning section.
9. Mark and disconnect all combustion air pressure
tubing from cold end header collector box.
10. Mark and remove wires from pressure switches.
Remove pressure switches. Keep tubing attached to
pressure switches.
11. Disconnect the plug from the combustion air inducer.
Remove two screws which secure combustion air
inducer to collector box. Remove combustion air
inducer assembly. Remove ground wire from vest
panel.
12. Remove electrical junction box from the side of the

sides and bottom to the cabinet. Reinstall blower and
mounting screws.
21. Reinstall cabinet screws on front flange at blower
deck.
22. Reinstall the primary limit on the vestibule panel.
