Figure 16. Carriage Tension Spring
1. Locate the carriage tension spring adjustment
nut. The adjustment nut is accessible from the
front as follows:
Model Nos. E36W36 and E43W36:
Through lower compartment.
Model Nos. E136W36 and EV136W36:
Behind valve panel.
Model Nos. EC36, EC45, E236W36 and
E243W36:
Behind left and right front panels.
2. Turn nut clockwise to increase tension or
counterclockwise to decrease tension.
3. If one side of the grid is lower than the other
side, turn the adjustment nut on the low side
clockwise to level the grid.
MISCELLANEOUS
1. Wire brush the surface of the grid to remove
baked on material, wash with hot water, dry
thoroughly and reassemble.
2. Clean out the grease container and wash with
hot soapy water. Dry thoroughly.
3. Wipe exposed cleanable surfaces with a mild
detergent and hot water. Stubborn residue may
be removed with a lightweight non-metallic
scouring pad. Stainless steel areas should be
washed with a mild detergent, hot water and a
soft cloth. If necessary to use a non-metallic
scouring pad, always rub in the direction of the
grain in the metal to prevent scratching. NEVER
USE STEEL WOOL.
4. Check the operation of the thermocouple and
flame safety devices by lighting the pilot and
then blowing it out. Listen for the flame failure
valve clicking closed. This action must occur
within 60 seconds of extinguishing the pilot.
