IV) OPERATION

Startup

CAUTION:

Read before proceeding. If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result, causing property damage, per- sonal injury or loss of life.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO START BURNER IF ANY OF THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS EXIST:

1.Excess oil has accumulated.

2.The unit is full of vapours.

NOTE: Refer to the instruction manual supplied with the burner for installation, start up and adjustment.

After the installation is finished and the installation checklist completed, proceed as follows:

1.Set the draft regulator for full draft.

2.Turn on oil at the tank. Adjust the air band on the burn- er according to the instructions provided by the burner manufacturer.

3.Close the inspection cover on the burner mounting panel, and press the reset button on the combustion safety control.

4.Set electric switch to “ON” position. The burner should start.

5.Make the air adjustment and take the necessary com- bustion test readings as specified by the burner manu- facturer.

Water Temperature Regulation

Once installed, the operation will be completely automatic. The thermostat (aquastat) on the water heater is adjustable and will maintain water at the desired temperature. Thermostats are factory set at 49°C (120°F). Contact a qual- ified Oil-Burner Technician for adjustment. Set the tank ther- mostat as low as possible to provide an adequate supply of hot water. This will conserve oil and extend the life of the tank.
