fails to start check the following:

2. Make sure “Furnace” switch is “ON”. This switch is
usually mounted in a convenient location on a wall or
partition near the furnace.
3. Check electrical service panel and make sure breaker
is not tripped or fuse is blown - Replace with correct
amperage fuse only.
4. If item 1, 2, and 3 are okay, press “RESET” button on
oil burner ONCE ONLY.
5. If unit fails to start call a qualified service man.
Note:
If your fur
nace is to be shut down for an extended period
of time, oil valve at oil tank must be closed. Before
restarting your furnace, be sure to turn oil valve on.
Proceed to instructions on “How To Start Your Oil
Furnace”. If unit fails to start, call a qualified service man.
