CLEANING BURNER PILOT AIR HOLE INLET

We recommend that you clean the unit ever 2,500 hours of operation or every three months. We also recommend that you keep the burner tube and pilot assembly clean and free of dust and dirt. To clean these parts we recommend using compressed air no greater than 30 psig.

This can be done by using a vacuum cleaner in the blow position, using compressed air in a can, please follow the directions on the can. If you don’t follow directions on the can you could damage the burner or pilot assem- bly. In addition, the directions that follow should also be followed.

1.Shut off the unit, including the pilot. Allow the unit to cool for at least thirty minutes.

2.Inspect burner and pilot for dust and dirt.

3.Blow air through the port/slots and holes in the burner.

A yellow tip on the pilot flame indicates dust and dirt in the pilot assembly. To clean the pilot assembly find the small pilot air inlet hole about two inches from where the pilot flame comes out of the pilot assembly (see Pilot Air Inlet Hole in figure 25). With the unit off, lightly blow air through the air inlet hole. You may blow through a drinking straw if compressed air is not available.

•Use a soft cloth dampened with a mild soap and water mixture. Wipe the cabinet to remove dust.
