WARNING:
NOTE: Before troubleshooting the gas control system, be sure external gas shut off is in the "On" position.
Problem
Spark igniter will not light.
Pilot will not stay lit after carefully
following lighting instructions.
Pilot burning, no gas to burner,
Valve knob "ON", Wall
Switch "ON"
Frequent Pilot outage problem.
Flame lifts off burner and goes out Inner 4" liner has come off flue
in less than 30 seconds

Trouble Shooting The Gas Control System

Possible Causes
Defective or misaligned
electrode at pilot.
Defective igniter
(push-button)
Defective thermocouple
(flame switch where applicable)
Defective valve magnet.
Wall switch or wires
defective.
Generator may not be generating Check generator with millivolt meter. Take reading at generator
sufficient voltage.
Plugged burner orifice.
Defective automatic valve
operator.
Pilot flame may be too low or
blowing (high) causing the pilot
safety to drop out.
or termination, flame is starving
Improper installation of firebrick.
Firebrick is likely leaning.
Corrective Action
Check for spark at electrode and pilot: if no spark and electrode
wire is properly connected, replace igniter.
Using a match, light pilot. If pilot lights, turn off pilot and push the
red button again. If pilot will not light - check gap at electrode and
pilot should be 1/8" to 1/4" to have a strong spark.
Check pilot flame. Must impinge on generator and thermocouple.
Clean and/or adjust pilot for maximum flame impingement on
generator and thermocouple. Replace thermocouple if pilot will
not hold. (Hand tight 1/8 turn on replacement)
Replace valve, if pilot won't hold after the thermocouple is
replaced.
Check wall switch and wires for proper connections. Jumper wire
across terminals at wall switch. If burner comes on, replace
defective wall switch. If okay, jumper wires, across wall switch
wires at valve. If burner comes on, wires are faulty or connec
tions are bad.
terminals of gas valve. Should read 325 millivolts minimum while
holding valve knob depressed in pilot position and wall switch
"off" Replace faulty generator if reading is below specified mini
mum.
Check burner orifice for stoppage and remove.
Remove wall switch wires from gas valve. Install jumper wires
from top bottom terminals of gas valve. Turn valve on "ON". If
main burner does not light, replace valve.
Clean and/or adjust pilot flame for maximum flame impingement
on generator and thermocouple.
Attach 4" liner to flue or termination using screws, silicone and
clamps as stated in manual for oxygen
Be sure to position firebrick against firebox walls and be sure to
use brick clips attached to the inner side of firebox.
