APPENDIX A - CHECK OUT AND ADJUSTMENTS Check out and adjustments BML and BMLV furnaces may be used with following oil burners. Beckett AF, and Riello 40F oil burners are for applications using indoor air for combustion only. Sidewall venting applications utilizing outdoor air for combustion, use Beckett AFII or Riello 40BF (Balanced Flue) oil burners only.
APPENDIX A - CHECK OUT AND ADJUSTMENTS A.2 Burner Electrodes After air adjustments have been completed, recheck the over fire draft at test port on burner mounting plate Adjustment of electrode tips with respect to each other, shown in Figure 2. Over fire draft should be adjusted to nozzle, burner head is very important to ensure smooth -0.02 inches w.c.
