MODELS: 5008731; 5998732; 6508731; 6508732
For models equipped with WILLIAMS gas valve P322041

Blower will first operate at low speed then shift to high
speed as the furnace heats up.
For models equipped with WILLIAMS gas valve P321704
or P321705.
Models are equipped with a two-rate control valve. The rate
knob on the gas valve is marked "LO" and "HI." Turn the
rate knob to the "LO"
position and the room thermostat
will operate the main burner at about 70% of maximum
capacity, blower will operate at low speed. Turn the rate
knob to the "HI"
position only when a fast heat-up is
desired during extremely cold weather. High operation
develops maximum capacity of the furnace, blower will first
operate at low speed then shift to high speed as the fur-
nace heats up.
SAFETY LIMIT CONTROL
These furnaces are protected against unsafe operation by
five automatic safety controls: (1) A safety pilot acts to shut
OFF the gas valve in case of pilot failure; (2) A redundant
gas valve; (3) A limit switch shuts down the main burner
to prevent overheating the furnace cabinet; (4) A vent safe-
ty shutoff device shuts down the main burner to protect
against improper venting of combustion products. These
limit switchs will reset when furnace cools; and (5) A ther-
mal overload protects the motor against burnout caused
by current surges or if anything should block the flow of
air through the furnace. This switch will reset itself when
the motor cools down and it cannot be adjusted.
