Start-Up And Adjustment Of Oil Burner
(See oil burner instructions for nozzle and electrode setting)
Do not set fire visually.
Instruments are only reliable method to determine proper
air adjustments.
Improperly adjusted burner causes soot and high fuel bills
because of incomplete combustion of the fuel oil. This may
then require excessive boiler maintenance, service costs,
and in some instances, house cleaning or redecorating.
Consult a qualified service mechanic to make proper
adjustments with smoke tester, CO
gauge. Bacharach or Dwyer test kits include these
instruments.
