screw location
a. This test requires that a DC milliammeter be connected between the flame sensor terminal
and the flame sensor lead. Observe correct polarity, if the meter needle goes below 0
milliamps reverse the leads. The current reading must be 0.15 milliamps or greater.
b. Adjust the current reading to the required level by adjusting the pilot flame. Remove the
pilot flame adjustment cover to expose the adjusting screw.
c. Turning the flame adjusting screw clockwise lowers the flame and current. Turning the
screw counterclockwise increases flame size and current.
d. Rotate the screw in the direction to achieve a reading of 0.15 mA or greater.
Allow 3 to 5 minutes between flame adjustments to allow the reading to settle.
e. Once the pilot flame is set, replace the pilot flame adjusting screw cover and remove the
ammeter.
