Set Combustion
with Test instruments
1. Allow the burner to run for approximately
5 to 10
minutes.
2.
Set the stack or over-fire draft to the level speci-
fied by the appliance manufacturer.
Natural
Draft Applications;
typically
over-fire
draft is -0.01" or
-0.02" w.c.
Direct
Venting;
typically may not require draft
adjustment.
High Efficiency/Positive
Pressure Appliances;
also vary from traditional appliances (see manu-
facturer's recommendations).
3.
Follow these five steps to properly
adjust the
burner:
Step 1"
Adjust the head/air until a trace of smoke
is achieved.
This can be accomplished
by turn-
ing the screw on the head/air adjustment
plate
assembly to increase air (CCW) or decrease air
(CW).
Step 2:
At the trace of smoke level, measure the
CO2 (or 02).
This is the vital reference point for
further adjustments.
Example: 13.5% CO2 (2.6%
02)
Step 3:
Increase the air to reduce the CO2 by 1.5
to 2 percentage points. (02 will be increased by
approximately 2.0 to 2.7 percentage points.)
Ex-
ample: Reduce CO2 from 13.5% to 11.5% (2.6%
to 5.3% 02).
Step 4:
Recheck smoke level. It should be Zero.
This procedure provides a margin of reserve air
to accommodate
variable conditions. If the draft
level has changed, recheck the smoke and CO2
levels and readjust burner, if necessary.
Step 5:
Once the combustion has been set, tighten
the lower acorn nut and splined nut on the air ad-
justment assembly. See Figure 5.

Please read and understand the manual supplied with
this equipment. This equipment must be installed, adjust-
ed and put into operation only by a qualified individual or
service agency that is:
Licensed or certified to install and provide technical
service to oil heating systems.
Experienced with all applicable codes, standards and
ordinances.
Responsible for the correct installation and commis-
sion of this equipment.
Skilled in the adjustment of oil burners using combus-
tion test instruments.
The installation
must strictly comply with all applicable
codes, authorities having jurisdiction
and the latest revi-
sion of the National Fire Protection Association Standard
for the installation of Oil-burning Equipment, NFPA 31 (or
CSA B139 and B140 in Canada).
Regulation by these authorities take precedence over the
general instructions provided in this installation manual.
The following
guidelines
are provided
for routine
maintenance.
.
Chimney Vent Systems:
Install the burner cover
and repeat Steps 2 and 4 above. If CO2 increas-
es (02 decreases), remove the cover and adjust
the air setting so the CO2 (02) with the cover
installed meets the requirements of Step 3.
5. Direct Vent Systems with outside air ducted to
burner:
Install the burner cover.
.
Start and stop the burner several times to ensure
satisfactory
operation.
Test the primary control
and all other appliance safety controls to verify
that they function according to the manufactur-
er's specifications.
• Cover
Installation
1. Install the four cover mounting thumb screws in
the cover mounting plate.
2. Install the cover over the mounting plate while
aligning the side slots with the installed cover
mounting screws.

CI Replace the oil supply line filter. The line filter car-
tridge must be replaced to avoid contamination of
the fuel pump and nozzle.
CI Inspect the oil supply system. All fittings should
be tight and leak-free. The supply lines should be
free of water, sludge and other restrictions.
CI Remove and clean the pump strainer if applica-
ble.
CI Replace the used nozzle with a new nozzle that
conforms to the appliance manufacturer's
speci-
fications.
CI Clean and inspect the electrodes for damage, re-
placing any that are cracked or chipped.
CI Check electrode tip settings. Replace electrodes
if tips are rounded.
CI Inspect the igniter spring contacts.
CI Clean the cad cell lens surface, if necessary.
