Fig. B23-1 - Gas shutoff valve (typical)

The easiest way to remove the blower is to remove it

as part of an assembly, including the air/gas chan

nel, front panel of the combustion chamber, and the

burner. Once you have done this, you can separate

the burner from the rest of the assembly.

Tools and equipment required:

•  Small Phillips-head screwdriver (#1)
•  3/8” and 5/16” sockets
•  4 mm Allen wrench
•  #25 Torx® driver
•  Flat-blade screwdriver
•  Gas leak detection solution (Hercules “Mega

bubble” or equivalent)

• Replacement gasket for front plate of heat ex

changer

• Container for removed parts

Procedure:

1. Turn off power to the machine. Use the main dis-

connect switch on the front of the machine, just

above the control panel.

2. Remove the front and right side panels.
3. Shut off the gas at the gas shutoff valve on the

right side of the machine (yellow handle). See

Fig. B23-1.

4. On the left end of the gas valve assembly, re-

move the four bolts which attach the gas valve

assembly to the blower. See Fig. B23-2. The

5/16” socket will fit the head of each bolt. Use

the 3/8” socket on the nut on the other end.

Undo these screws.

assembly
