Perform regular maintenance

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 make a record of the service 
performed and the combustion test results.

Use a Feeler Gauge to set 

the gap to; 

AF = 0.125 +1/64 inch 
AFG = 0.030 +1/64 inch

Replace the oil supply line fi lter. The line fi lter car-
tridge must be replaced to avoid contamination of 
the fuel unit and nozzle.
Inspect the oil supply system. All fi ttings  should 
be leak-tight. The supply lines should be free of 
water, sludge and other restrictions.
Remove and clean the pump strainer if applica-
ble.
Replace the nozzle with an equivalent nozzle.
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 Baffl e is in place if 
required for the burner application. Omitting the 
baffl e can result in unacceptable burner combus-
tion.
Inspect all gaskets. Replace any that are dam-
aged or would fail to seal adequately.
Inspect the compustion head and air tube. Re-
move any carbon or foreign matter. Replace all 
damaged units with exact parts.
Clean the blower wheel, air inlet, air guide, burner 
housing and static plate of any lint or foreign ma-
terial.
If motor is not permanently lubricated, oil motor 
with a few drops of SAE 20 nondetergent oil at 
each oil hole. DO NOT over oil motor. Excessive 
oiling can cause motor failure.
Check motor current. The amp draw should not 
exceed the nameplate rating by more than 10%.

WARNING

Turn off all power to the burner before servic-
ing.
Disconnect the burner motor wires.
Remove the bolts securing the motor to the 
burner housing.
Remove the motor and blower wheel.
Remove the existing blower wheel.
Referring to the fi gure below, slide the new 
blower wheel onto the shaft.

Use a feeler gauge to set the wheel-to-motor 
gap, as shown below. 

(AF = 0.125 +1/64 inch, 

AFG = 0.030 +1/64 inch)

Slide blower wheel toward motor until it con-
tacts feeler gauge.
Rotate the blower wheel until the setscrew is 
centered on the fl at of the motor shaft. Tighten 
the setscrew to secure the wheel.

DO NOT use a motor that has endshield open-
ings outside the blower wheel circumference 
(represented by the dashed line).
Install the motor on the burner housing. Tighten 
screws. Reconnect wires.
Restore power, start the burner and perform 
combustion tests. Refer to the section “Set 
combustion with test instruments”.
