2.9. Oil flow adjustment
The float regulator has been adjusted at the factory and
should not need further adjustment. If the burner does
not work correctly, check possible causes before
readjusting the settings :
- Chimney draught
- Fresh air inlet
- Oil supply.
Low setting (Refer to fig. 7 , # 2) :
- set the regulating knob on “1" and let the burner run
for a few minutes. The flame must completely cover the
bottom of the burner and the catalyser body must be
glowing red hot.
- if the flame is too small, the stove will soot up quickly
; increase the flame by turning the setting screw (# 2)
clockwise.
- if the flame is too high, reduce the flame by turning the
setting screw (# 2) counter clockwise.
High setting (Refer to Fig. 7 , # 1) :
- set the regulating knob on “6" and let the burner run
for a few moments. The flame must be shaped like a
cone and reach the upper part of the door.
- if the flame is too low, increase by turning the set
screw anti-clock-wise.
- if the flame is too high, reduce by turning the set screw
clockwise.
Please note - Very important : The adjustments of the
float regulator are very sensitive. The hight and the low
setting screws must never be turned more than a 1/4 of
a turn at a time in any direction from their initial setting.
When making any adjustments, allow 3 to 5 minutes
between adjustments to allow burner to stabilize to
previous adjustment before proceeding, if necessary.
2.10. Chimney draught
Once the stove has been properly installed, the
chimney draught must be checked.
The adjustment of the draught will be made with the
barometric damper located at the back of the stove (# 3
of fig. n° 7).
The reading of the draught must be done once the unit
is hot (minimum 30 minutes of use).
Refer to the specifications p. 3 for minimum draught
requirement on mini setting and on maxi setting.
2.11. Maintenance of the Chimney
Chimney and chimney connector should be inspected
at least once every three months during the heating
season to determine if a soot build up has occurred. If
soot has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce
the risk of a chimney fire.
