The overheat thermostat, bulb mounted on the left inner side
panel (when facing front of unit) – body in junction box, will shut
off the gas supply to the main burner in the event of overheating.
The manual reset button is located beneath a black screw off cap
positioned on the side of the junction box. See Figs. 6 and 7.

It is a single pole single throw switch. The contacts open to shut
the combination gas control in the event of the unit overheating.
This overheat thermostat should operate only when something is
wrong with the unit. Whenever this thermostat operates, the
problem should be identified and corrected immediately or
serious damage may result. If the overheat thermostat cuts off
the gas supply during normal operation:

1. Make sure deflector blades are open and that there are not

any obstructions in the air inlet or discharge outlet.

2. Check actual input to unit against rated input.

3. Check motor is operating.

4. Check fan is not loose on motor shaft.

5. Check fan speed against motor data plate.

6. Check flue system is not damaged or blocked. Also check

unit is flued correctly and that there is not a negative
pressure in the building adversely affecting draught.

7. Clean heat exchanger tubes inside and out if necessary.

8. Check operation of fan delay timer.

9. If items 1 to 8 do not solve the problem, check overheat

thermostat and replace if necessary.

After re-assembly restore the electrical and gas supplies. Light
the appliance (see Lighting Instructions on inside of casing) and
check the gas connections for soundness as follows:

Close gas supply cock at the meter.

Remove the screw in the inlet pressure test point and connect a
manometer to the test nipple. Open the gas supply cock at the
meter and the appliance gas cock. Record the static pressure.

Close the gas supply cock at the meter and watch the pressure
gauge for approximately 3 minutes. Any decrease in pressure
(after the first minute of temperature stabilization) indicates a
gas leak which must be cured (first check connection of
manometer to test nipple). When satisfied remove manometer
and refit test nipple sealing screw.
