A) VENT SYSTEM
DANGER:
ESCAPING GASES ARE DANGEROUS. THE ENTIRE FLUE AND VENTING
SYSTEM SHOULD BE INSPECTED AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR BY A QUALIFIED SER-
VICEMAN.
B) OIL FILTER
The oil filter cartridge should be replaced annually.
C) CLEANING
The heat exchanger and combustion chamber should be examined annually for scale and soot
accumulation. The heat exchanger examination and cleaning is to be performed through the front
clean out panel located above the burner.
1. To clean the unit, Remove the 3/8" brass nuts, clean out cover, and front refractory board.
2. Remove baffles from front. Brush all of the tubes using a 2" soft flue brush.
3. Remove the flue pipe and check for any residue through the flue collector opening. A boiler
vacuum can be used to collect any soot and scale. It is not normally necessary to remove the flue
box for cleaning.
4. Remove the oil burner to inspect the burner head. Any soot or scale can be removed from the
chamber through the burner opening.
NOTICE:
DO NOT REMOVE THE REAR COVER AND REAR REFRACTORY FOR
NORMAL MAINTENANCE. SOOT OR SCALE MUST BE REMOVED FROM THE
FRONT BURNER OPENING ONLY.
D) OIL BURNER
1. Thoroughly brush clean the burner fan blades. Only with clean fan blades is proper combus-
tion air delivery possible.
2. Clean nozzle assembly and all air handling parts.
3. Check spacing and condition of the ignition electrodes.
4. Nozzles should be inspected every year for plugged distributor slots or plugged orifices. If it
is necessary to replace the nozzle, use only the specified nozzle to be sure that the replacement
meets the spray pattern specifications of the burner.
E) GASKETS
Tighten the nuts on the water coil annually to prevent any gasket leaks. Deterioration due to coil
gasket leaks shall void the warranty.
F) WIRING
Check the electrical wiring for damage or frayed insulation.
