Trained Service Technician’s Regular Maintenance

While performing routine maintenance check the following.

Replace the oil supply line filter. The line filter car- tridge must be replaced to avoid contamination of the fuel pump and nozzle.

Inspect the oil supply system. All fittings should be tight and leak-free. The supply lines should be free of water, sludge and other restrictions.

Remove and clean the pump strainer if applica- ble.

Replace the used nozzle with a new nozzle per appliance manufacturer’s specifications.

Clean and inspect the electrodes for damage, re- placing any that are cracked or chipped.

Check electrode tip settings. Replace electrodes if tips are rounded.

Inspect the igniter spring contacts.

Clean the cad cell grid surface, if necessary.

Make sure Low Firing Rate Baffle is in place if required for the burner application. Omitting the baffle can result in unacceptable burner combus- tion.

Inspect all gaskets. Replace any that are dam- aged or would fail to seal adequately.

Clean the blower wheel, air inlet, air guide, reten- tion head, throttle plate and throttle ring of any lint or foreign material.

Check motor current. The amp draw should not exceed the nameplate rating by more than 10%.

Check all wiring for secure connections or insula- tion breaks.

Check the pump pressure and cutoff function.

Check primary control safety lockout timing.

Check ignition system for proper operation.

Inspect the vent system and chimney for soot ac- cumulation or other restriction.

Clean the appliance thoroughly according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Check the burner performance. Refer to the sec- tion “Set combustion with test instruments”.

It is good practice to keep a record of the service performed and the combustion test results.

Removing Nozzle Line for Service (Refer- ence the Replacement Parts drawing.)
