A yellow tip on the pilot flame indicates dust and dirt in 

the pilot assembly. To clean the pilot assembly find the 

small pilot air inlet hole about two inches from where 

the pilot flame comes out of the pilot assembly (see 

figure 25). 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.

We recommend that you clean the unit ever 2,500 

hours of operation or every three months. We also 

recommend that you keep the burner tube and pilot 

assembly clean and free of dust and dirt. To clean these 

parts we recommend using compressed air no greater 

than 30 psig.
This can be done by using a vacuum cleaner in the 

blow position, using compressed air in a can, please 

follow the directions on the can. If you don’t follow 

directions on the can you could damage the burner or 

pilot assembly. In addition, the directions that follow 

should also be followed.

1.  Shut off the unit, including the pilot. Allow the 

unit to cool for at least thirty minutes.

2.  Inspect burner and pilot for dust and dirt.
3.  Blow air through the port/slots and holes in the 

burner.
