PRE-START CHECK LIST
Complete the following checks before starting the unit.
1. Check the type of gas being supplied. Be sure that it is the
same as listed on the unit nameplate.
2. Make sure that the vent and combustion air hoods have
been properly installed.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: This furnace is equipped with an intermittent pilot
and automatic re-ignition system. DO NOT attempt
to manually light the pilot.
TO LIGHT PILOT AND MAIN BURNERS:
1. Turn “off” electric power to unit.
2. Turn room thermostat to lowest setting.
3. Turn gas valve knob to “on” position.
4. Turn “on” electric power to unit.
5. Set room thermostat to desired temperature.
(If thermostat “set” temperature is above room temperature,
pilot burner ignition will occur and, after an interval to prove
pilot flame, main burners will ignite).
TO SHUT DOWN:
1. Turn “off” electric power to unit.
2. Depress knob of gas valve while turning to “off” position.
POST-START CHECK LIST (GAS)
After the entire control circuit has been energized and the
heating section is operating, make the following checks:
1. Check for gas leaks in the unit piping as well as the supply
piping.
2. Check for correct manifold gas pressures. See “Checking
Gas Input”.
3. Check the supply gas pressure. It must be within the limits
shown on rating nameplate. Supply pressure should be
checked with all gas appliances in the building at full fire. At
no time should the stand by gas line pressure exceed 13
inches, nor the operating pressure drop below 5.0" for
natural gas units. If gas pressure is outside these limits,
contact the local gas utility for corrective action.
MANIFOLD GAS PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
Small adjustments to the high-fire gas flow may be made by
turning the pressure regulator adjusting screw on the automatic
gas valve.
Adjust as follows:
1. Remove the cap on the regulator. It’s located next to the
push-on electrical terminals.
2. To decrease the gas pressure, turn the adjusting screw
counterclockwise.
3. To increase the gas pressure, turn the adjusting screw
clockwise.
NOTE: The correct manifold pressure for these furnaces is
3.65 IWG
±
0.3.
PILOT CHECKOUT
The pilot flame should envelope the end of the flame sensor.
To adjust pilot flame, (1) remove pilot adjustment cover screw,
(2) increase or decrease the clearance for air to the desired
level, (3) be sure to replace cover screw after adjustment to
prevent possible gas leakage.
Put the system into operation and observe through complete
cycle to be sure all controls function properly.
BURNER INSTRUCTIONS
To check or change burners, pilot or orifices, CLOSE MAIN
MANUAL SHUT-OFF VALVE AND SHUT OFF ALL ELECTRIC
POWER TO THE UNIT.
1. Remove the screws holding either end of the manifold to
the burner supports.
2. Open the union fitting in the gas supply line just upstream
of the unit gas valve and downstream from the main manual
shut-off valve.
