Installation Instructions
To install the L62AA.

2. Turn off gas at the main manual shutoff valve
adjacent to the appliance.
3. Remove the L62AA cover by loosening the
screws at the side of the device.
4. Mount the L62AA in any convenient position
using the mounting holes provided. See Figure 1
for mounting hole locations.
5. Push the circuit wires through the conduit
opening on the bottom of the L62AA, strip the
ends of the wires just enough to put the bare
wire under the terminal screws, and attach them
to the two wire terminals (see Figure 1).
6. Replace the cover.
7. Attache the thermocouple securely to the pilot
burner, and screw the terminal end to the BASO
power unit terminal on the L62AA (see Figure 1
and Figure 2). Make sure tat this connection is
clean. Tighten the thermocouple lead nut finger
tight plus a maximum of 1/8 turn. Do not
overtighten.
!
WARNING: Risk of Fire or Explosion.
Never attach both wires to one terminal. Doing so
eliminates all safety features provided by the
L62AA device.
!
WARNING: Risk of Fire or Explosion.
Always wire the safety shutoff device in series with
a thermostat or other such control. Wiring it in
parallel defeats the safety features of the L62AA
device.
