Every application varies. Monitor your needed schedules.
WEEKLY
• Drain water from storage tank.
MONTHLY
• Check your ash accumulation for best performance, remove if excessive (the size of unit,
type of oil and run time are all contingent factors).
• Change or Replace Filter screen located in the pancake style housing (igure 12 below).
NOTE:
every application is different and may vary depending on contamination of oils
being used.
ONCE EACH SEASON (or more often, depending upon usage or contamination of oil)
• Clean the nozzle, lame-cone and oil heater block. Remove one (1) x 9/16 nut from the
burner side of the cabinet to swing the burner away from the unit to easily access and
clean the nozzle and lame-cone. (igure 6 below).
• Open the bolt on door on clean-out sides of the furnace. The bolt-on door opposite of
the burner assembly requires the removal of the access panel allowing simple entry to the
combustion chamber and heat exchanger(s) to vacuum out the accumulated ash & soot
(hepa ilter recommended) (igure 10 below).
• Check oil pump ilter. Remove pump cover for access (igure 11 below).
CAUTION:
Be
careful of gasket; clean if needed.
YEARLY
• Clean lue pipe stack-to loosen soot remove stack at top of heater and tap thoroughly.
Then vacuum upper heat exchanger(s).
• Inspect electrode adjustment (igure 8 below). Due to erosion, adjustment may change.
• Replace nozzle as needed when lame deteriorates with no retention at lame cone,
depending on usage (igures 6, 7, 8 and 9 below). Will lose eficiency due to erosion. This
can be accessed by swinging the burner clean out door open (igure 6 below).
• IMPORTANT:
TO TURN POWER OFF, Remove electrical plug from heater cabinet to burner.
Remove 9/16” burner securing nuts, remove the burner side clean-out door. Remove nozzle
with 5/8” socket (igures 6 and 7 below).
