4.  Check the injector holder located at the end 

of the burner tube again. Remove any large 

particles of dust, dirt, lint or pet hair with a 

soft cloth or vacuum cleaner nozzle.

5.  Blow air into the primary air holes on the 

injector holder.

6.  In case any large clumps of dust have now been 

pushed into the burner repeat steps 3 and 4.

Clean the pilot assembly also. A yellow tip on the 

pilot flame indicates dust and dirt in the pilot as

-

sembly. There is a small pilot air inlet hole about 

2" from where the pilot flame comes out of the 

pilot assembly (see Figure 41). With the unit off, 

lightly blow air through the air inlet hole. You may 

blow through a drinking straw if compressed air 

is not available.

LOGS

•  If you remove logs for cleaning, refer to 

Install-

ing Logs

, page 18, to properly replace logs.

•  Replace log(s) if broken or chipped (dime-sized 

or larger).

MAIN BURNER

Periodically inspect all burner flame holes with 

the heater running. All slotted burner flame holes 

should be open with yellow flame present. All 

round burner flame holes should be open with a 

small blue flame present. Some burner flame holes 

may become blocked by debris or rust, with no 

flame present. If so, turn off heater and let cool. 

Remove blockage, blocked burner flame holes 

will create soot.
