Instruction Manual – Model CF500/CF800 Oil Burner

Start the burner continued

❏Set air adjusting plate

1.Allow the burner to run until the appliance has warmed sufficiently.

2.Visually check the flame. The flame should not be dark orange or smoky.

If the flame appears to be smoking, increase the amount of air by re-adjusting the air band to a higher number.

3.Once the appliance has warmed, the air setting can be checked and adjusted.

4.Use combustion test instruments to adjust the burner.

a.Adjust the air until a trace of smoke is achieved with

CO2 level as high as possible (lowest possible O2). Example: 13.5% CO2 (2.5% O2) with a trace of smoke.

b.Increase the air to reduce CO2 by 2 percentage points at a zero smoke level. (Increase O2 by 3 percentage points at a zero smoke level.)

Example: Reduce CO2 from 13.5% to 11.5%, with zero smoke (or increase O2 from 2.5% to 5.5%).

c.This procedure provides a margin of reserve air to ac- commodate variable conditions.

5.Check the breech draft pressure against the appliance manufacturer’s recommended setting (typically + 0.1" W.C.).

6.If the breech pressure is higher or lower than recommended level, adjust the appliance breech damper to achieve the

specified setting. Recheck the smoke and CO2 levels. Ad- just burner air if necessary.

Maintenance and service

The burner must be serviced at least annually by a qualified service technician to assure continued reliable operation. Operation and adjustment of the burner requires technical knowledge and the use of combustion test instruments. Do not tamper with the burner or controls. Failure to comply could result in failure of the burner or system, resulting in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.

Annual service

— by qualified service technician

Have the burner inspected, tested and started at least annually by a qualified service technician. This annual test/inspection should include at least the following:

❏Replace oil nozzle.

❏Clean burner and blower wheel (if needed to remove lint or debris).

❏Test ignition and combustion and verify air settings.

❏Test oil supply line vacuum - verify that it is within allowable range indicated in fuel unit literature.

❏Check pump pressure to nozzle.

❏Inspect fuel system (including tank, lines and all connections).

❏Inspect combustion air and vent systems.

❏Replace oil filter.

❏Oil motor (if not permanently lubricated).

Monthly maintenance

— by owner

❏Observe combustion air openings and vent system for integrity. Openings must be clean and free of obstruc- tions.

❏Check oil lines and fittings to verify there are no leaks.

❏Observe burner ignition and performance to verify smooth operation.

❏Shut the system down if you observe abnormal or ques- tionable operation. Call a qualified service agency for professional inspection and service.
