Inorderforthe flameto burnefficiently, it must
receiveadequate combustion air.The amount
of combustion air required variesaccording to
altitude,actualB.T.U. c ontentof the fuel, gas
pressure, c onversion to another gasandother
factors. T he burnerflameshouldbe observed

for Factory Air settings.
CAUTION:
•,Combustion air adjustment must
be made only by a qualified tech=
nician. Improper air adjustment
may cause unsafe operation, ex=
plosion and/or fire asphyxiation.
,,if the input to the furnace is too
great because of excessive gas
pressure, wrong size nozzle or
orifice, high altitude, etc., the
burner flame will be sooty and
can produce carbon monoxide,
which could result in unsafe
operation, explosion and/or fire
or asphyxiation.

Table 7. Factory Combustion Air Settings
Gas Gun
Combustion air box adjustment is made to the
main burner by loosening the two lock nuts on
the plastic air shutter, located on the left side of
the burner blower housing. Air sh utter adjustment
line is located on the same side of the blower
housing. Turn the plastic shutter to a smaller
number (counter clockwise) for less air to a larger
number (clockwise) for more air. Gently tighten
the lock nuts after completing the adjustment. For
best results, use instrument to measure between
8 - 9% CO 2, after the combustion air has been
adjusted. Note: Do not over-tighten the lock nuts.
This may damage the plastic air shutter.
The Smoke should be NO. 0 on the Bacharach
Scale, and 0 to 0.02 negative draft over fire.
Electrode Setting (Oil Gun Only)
Poor ignition of the oil spray may result if the
electrodes are not adjusted as shown in Figure
34. Do not permit any electrodes to be grounded
to any surface.
Switching ignition Control between
interrupted and intermittent Duty (Oil Gun
Only)
Honeywell and Beckett oil primary controls can
be switched between interrupted and intermittent
ignition control. To switch from interrupted duty
(Factory set) to intermittent duty, remove the blue
wire from the quick-connect terminal. Attach the
burner motor and igniter wire to the burner motor
(orange) control terminal by splicing or adding
tab adapters. Seal and isolate any bare wires.

It is recommended that the CO 2and Smoke levels
be measured for maximum performance. CO 2
readings should be 10 - 11% for 66,000 BTUH
furnaces and 12-13% for 86,000 BTUH furnaces.
