BURNERS

Burners for these units have been designed so that field adjustment is not required.
Burners are tray-mounted and accessible for easy cleaning when required.

MANUAL RESET OVERTEMPERATURE CONTROL

Four manual reset overtemperature controls are located on the burner shield. These
devices senses blockage in the heat exchanger or insufficient combustion air. This
shuts off the main burners if excessive temperatures occur in the burner compart-
ment.
Operation of this control indicates an abnormal condition. Therefore, the unit should
be examined by a qualified installer, service agency, or the gas supplier before being
placed back into operation.
WARNING
DO NOT JUMPER THIS DEVICE! DO NOT RESET THE OVERTEMPERATURE
CONTROL WITHOUT TAKING CORRECTIVE ACTION TO ASSURE THAT AN
ADEQUATE SUPPLY OF COMBUSTION AIR IS MAINTAINED UNDER ALL CON-
DITIONS OF OPERATION. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN CARBON
MONOXIDE POISONING OR DEATH. REPLACE THIS CONTROL ONLY WITH
THE IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PART.

PRESSURE SWITCH

This furnace has two sets of pressure switches for sensing a blocked exhaust or a
failed induced draft blower. They are normally open and close when the induced draft
blower starts, indicating air flow through the combustion chamber.
