This guide is to help you install the Pressure Jet oil burner into an existing Rayburn 200
series cooker. It is ONLY designed to fit the models originally made for OIL or GAS opera-
tion and is NOT SUITABLE for the 4 door solid fuel variety.
It may be fitted into the OF7 Regent - please ask for advice.
Preparation
Tools required
Vacuum , hand brush ( paint brush) , bottle brush etc
Sabre saw, hacksaws ( metal blade)
Electric drill with drill bits to tap to 6mm ( 5.5mm bit)
Metal file
Fireclay – 1 kilo tub. Tube of silicone & applicator gun .
Oil pipe jointing compound.
Pipe bender – mini bender to bend 6/8/10mm ideal
Method
Remove flue pipe connections, so you can access the x frame situated between the flue
“funnel” and the cast iron diverter. This is not used.
Remove the cast iron hob –hotplate used to boil pans on – and the sealing rope
Underneath.
Remove the cast iron internal box that sits above the burner, the slag wool insulation inside
it.
Remove the burner, its supply pipes and the cast iron base plate it sits on .This assumes
you have already disconnected the oil / gas supply to the cooker(* or have had it
professionally disconnected by an approved engineer OFTEC / CORGI registered)
Remove the pipe that enters the cooker through the side panel.
You may leave any oil stop valve or KBB fire valve in place and any sensor inside the
cooker may be simply moved out of the way.
Vacuum / brush clean carefully ALL passages (remove) – above the oven and the chimney
area. Ensure that the chimney is clean – get swept if necessary- and checked (see our
details in this document) for soundness.
Before cutting the cooker
take the burner assembly and try fitting it into the cooker
because in some cases it will fit without cutting the frame --
only cut if necessary
.
To do this, take your hacksaw, sabre saw or similar and cut through the cast iron frame as
close as possible to the edge of the firebox frame. This is to allow the fan motor to enter the
cooker.
See photo below. I have found that a double handed hacksaw is good for this job but a
sabre saw is better if more costly in blades!
