b. Slowly rotate the air adjusting plate (increase the
amount of air) as the damper drives to high-fire.
c. Lock down air adjusting plate at the high-fire air set-
ting found in
Table 5
6. Use combustion test instruments to adjust the burner.
a. Adjust the air until a trace of smoke is achieved with
CO
level as high as possible (lowest possible O

Example: 13.5% CO
b. Increase the air to reduce CO
at a zero smoke level. (Increase O
points at a zero smoke level.)
Example: Reduce CO
smoke (or increase O
c. A margin of reserve air has been added to accommo-
date variable conditions.
7. Check the breech draft pressure against the appliance
manufacturer's recommended setting (typically + 0.1"
W.C.).
8. If the breech pressure is higher or lower than recommended
level, adjust the appliance breech damper to achieve the
specified setting. Recheck the smoke and CO
Adjust burner air if necessary.
9. Once all settings are complete and satisfactory, rotate the
damper linkage arm (

Maintenance and service

The burner must be serviced at least annually by a qualified service technician to assure continued reliable
operation. Operation and adjustment of the burner requires technical knowledge and the use of combustion test
instruments. Do not tamper with the burner or controls. Failure to comply could result in failure of the burner or
system, resulting in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
Annual service
— by qualified service technician
Have the burner inspected, tested and started at least annually
by a qualified service technician. This annual test/inspection
should include at least the following:
Replace oil nozzles.
Clean burner and blower wheel (if needed to remove lint
or debris).
Test ignition and combustion at low and high fire and
verify air damper settings.
Test oil supply line vacuum - verify that it is within al-
lowable range indicated in fuel unit literature.
Check pump pressure to nozzles at low and high fire.
Inspect fuel system (including tank, lines and all connec-
tions).

teristics.
6. Perform limit circuit performance test specified by appli-
ance manufacturer to verify operation of burner/appli-
ance combination.
Inspect combustion air and vent systems.
Replace oil filter.
Oil motor (if not permanently lubricated).
Monthly maintenance
— by owner
Observe combustion air openings and vent system for
integrity. Openings must be clean and free of any obstruc-
tions.
Check the oil lines and fittings to verify there are no leaks.
Observe burner ignition and performance to verify smooth
operation.
Shut the system down if you observe abnormal or ques-
tionable operation. Call a qualified service agency for
professional inspection and service.
