INSTALLATION
Read all instructions before starting work so installation
will conform to Underwriters’ Laboratories or Canadian
Standards Association requirements. The furnace must be
level when placed on its foundation (upow, counterow, and
basement models) or in its suspended position (horizontal
models). Using a carpenter’s level, check the furnace in at
least two directions. The weight must be distributed evenly
before the duct work is attached.
These instructions must be placed on or near the
furnace in a conspicuous place.
Inspection of Shipment
This furnace is shipped in one package, completely
assembled and wired. The thermostat is shipped in a
separate carton when ordered.
Upon receipt of equipment, carefully inspect it for possible
shipping damage. If damage is found, it should be noted on
the carrier’s freight bill. Damage claims should be led with
the carrier immediately. Claims of shortages should be led
with the seller within 5 days.
Location
Locate the furnace as centrally as possible so that all warm
pipes to the various rooms are nearly the same length. This
allows each room to receive an equal and proper amount of
heat. This may vary with each particular installation.
Position the furnace so the pipe connection to the chimney
will be of minimum distance and have a minimum of ttings.
In utility rooms or similar installations, the door or access
opening should be large enough to permit replacement of
the furnace, or another appliance such as a water heater,
without disturbing any other equipment.
WARNING
In any installation where damage from oil may occur,
a drain pan must be installed. The drain pan must be
large enough size to completely prevent any potential
oil damage. The drain pan piping must be sized to drain
the oil pump capacity and the piping must be routed to
drain the oil back to the oil tank.
For attic installations, a booster oil pump may be required
to supply oil to the oil burner. Check state and local codes
for specic requirements.
Clearances
A minimum of 24” is recommended in front of the furnace
for servicing the burner on all models.
See Table 1 for a complete listing of the minimum clearances
required for basement type and upow installations.

507148-01 Page 3 of 14Issue 1406
Combustion and Ventilation Air
Adequate provisions for combustion air, ventilation of
furnace, and dilution of the gases must be made.
If the furnace is installed in a conned space and combustion
air is taken from the heated space, the supply air and
ventilating air must be through two permanent openings of
equal area. A conned space is “a space whose volume
is less than 50 cubic feet per 1000 BTU per hour of the
combined input rating of all appliances installed in that
space.” One opening must be within 12” of the ceiling and
the other within 12” of the oor. Each opening must have a
minimum free area of at least 1 square inch per 1000 BTU
per hour of total input rating of all appliances within the
space but not less than 100 square inches.
WARNING
Combustion air openings in the front of the furnace
must be kept free of obstructions. Any obstruction will
cause improper burner operation and may result in a
re hazard or injury.
WARNING
The barometric control shall be in the same atmospheric
pressure zone as the combustion air inlet to the furnace.
Deviation from this practice will cause improper burner
operation and may result in a re hazard or injury.
If the furnace is installed in a space within a building of tight
construction, air must be supplied from outdoors. In this
case, one opening shall be within 12” of the ceiling and the
other within 12” of the oor. If vertical combustion ducts are
run, each opening must have a free area of at least 1 square
inch per 4000 BTU per hour. If horizontal combustion ducts
are run, 1 square inch per 2000 BTU per hour of the total
input of all appliances is required.
As supplied, the furnace is designed to use air inside the
dwelling for combustion. If additional combustion air is
required, installing fresh air kit ABOOT571 allows air from
outside the dwelling to be brought in to the oil burner. This
kit brings air into the burner through air inlet ductwork run
through the furnace cabinet side panel and terminated
outside the dwelling (see Figure 5). The kit includes a
vacuum relief valve to guard against combustion problems
associated with directly connecting oil burners to the outside.

from this practice will cause improper burner operation
and may allow ue products into the living space which
may result in personal injury or death..
Circulating Air Supply
A return air duct system is recommended. Where there is no
complete return air duct system, a return connection should
be run full size to a location outside the conned space and
completely sealed so that no air from the conned space
can be circulated through the heating duct system.
Outdoor Make Up Air
A minimum mixed return air temperature of 60 – 65°F
must be maintained for outdoor make up air to prevent
condensation and corrosion.
Venting
Chimney
Before installing the furnace, a thorough inspection of the
chimney should be made to determine whether repairs are
necessary and that the chimney is of the proper size and
constructed in accordance with the requirements of the
National Board of Fire Underwriters or Canadian Standards
Association. The smallest dimension of the chimney should
be at least equal to the diameter of the ue pipe of the
furnace. Be sure the chimney will produce a steady draft
sufcient to remove all the products of combustion from the
furnace. A fabricated vent system the same size as the ue
outlet of the furnace may also be used. If a manufactured
vent is used, it must be listed for use with oil-red equipment.
WARNING
Figure 5
This furnace is certied for use with Type “L” vent, Type
“A”, and “factory-built” chimneys. “B” vent must not be
used with oil furnaces.

Do not common vent with any other appliance when using
the sidewall system.
Maximum permissible vent length is 100 equivalent feet, and
minimum permissible length is 15 equivalent feet. Calculate
the equivalent vent pipe footage from the furnace to the
mechanical vent system by adding the straight vent pipe
length and equivalent elbow lengths together. Each 90°
elbow is equivalent to 10’ of straight pipe; each 45° elbow
is equal to 5’ of straight pipe.
Removal of Unit from Common Venting System
When an existing furnace is removed from a common venting
system serving other appliances, the venting system is likely
to be too large to properly vent the remaining attached
appliances. The following test should be conducted with
each appliance while the other appliances connected to the
common venting system are not in operation.
1. Seal any unused openings in the common venting
system.
507148-01Page 6 of 14 Issue 1406
2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and
horizontal pitch and determine there is no blockage or
restriction, leakage, corrosion, or other deciencies
which could cause an unsafe condition.
3. Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and
windows between the space in which the appliances
remaining connected to the common venting system
are located and other spaces in the building. Turn on
clothes dryers and any appliance not connected to the
common venting system. Turn on exhaust fans, such
as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will
operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer
exhaust fan. Close replace dampers.
4. Following the lighting instructions, place the unit being
inspected in operation. Adjust the thermostat so the
appliance will operate continuously.
5. Test for spillage at the draft control relief opening after
5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the ame of
a match or candle.
Filters
Optional lter rack kit for Upow units:
• R37398C001 - Sized for 24 X 16 X 1/2 lter
Basement
Permanent lters are supplied with these units.To clean
the lters, shake to remove any excess dirt and/or use a
vacuum cleaner. Wash with soapy detergent water and dry.
The lters should be cleaned at least once a month, or more
frequently in unusually dusty environments.
Never leave the access panels to the blower compartment
off or partially open.
Oil Supply and Oil Filter Connection
Continuous lengths of heavy wall copper tubing or steel pipe
are recommended and should be installed under the oor
or near walls to protect from damage. Do not run lines on
oor joists or other reverberating surfaces. Always use are
ttings located in accessible places.
6. After it has been determined that each appliance
remaining connected to the common venting system
properly vents when tested as outlined above, return
doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers,
and any other fuel burning appliance to their previous
condition of use.
7. If improper venting is observed during any of the above
tests, the common venting system must be corrected.
See National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 (latest
edition) or CAN/CGA B149.1 & .2 Installation Codes
to correct improper operation of common venting
system.
Supply and Return Air Plenum
Secure return air plenum to unit using sheet metal screws.
Follow these procedures when installing supply air plenum:
1. Use sealing strips of berglass.
2. Attach the plenum to the furnace or evaporator cabinet
with sheet metal screws.
3. Both supply and return air plenums shall be square and
at least 18” long. They should be the same dimension
as the furnace opening.
4. Install supply and return air ducts as desired.
Install a generous capacity oil lter inside building between
the fuel shutoff valve and burner. Locate lter and valve
close to burner for easy servicing. An oil lter is required
for all models. A 10-micron lter is recommended.
Combustion Chamber
The combustion chamber is installed in the furnace at the
factory. Read the instruction plate on the front of the unit
concerning proper care of the chamber.
This combustion chamber is made of preformed ceramic ber
material. Use extreme care when installing the oil burner so
that the chamber is not damaged around the burner tube.
Electrical Wiring
All wiring must conform to the National Electrical Code, the
Canadian Electrical Code, and any local codes. Connect the
115-volt, single phase service to the unit at the junction box.
Use a separate fused branch electrical circuit containing a
properly sized fuse or circuit breaker. Run this circuit directly
from the main switch box to an electrical disconnect that is
readily accessible and located near the furnace. Follow
carefully the wiring diagram adhered to the inside of the
blower compartment door.
The electrical supply to the mechanical vent system must be
supplied from the appliance. All wiring must be appropriate
Class I wiring. Wiring must be installed in rigid metal conduit,
intermediate metal, or be otherwise suitably protected from
physical damage. Refer to the wiring diagrams supplied with
the venter kit for proper electrical connections.
507148-01 Page 7 of 14Issue 1406
Thermostat
Locate the thermostat on an inside wall in a room usually
occupied during the day, such as a living room or dining
room, at a height of 4-1/2’ from the oor. Avoid direct sunlight
or supply air from a register. Make sure the location is not
adjacent to appliances such as ovens or lights. Wire the
thermostat with minimum of #18 AWG thermostat wire.
Continuous Blower Operation
The comfort level of the living space can be enhanced
when using this feature by allowing continuous circulation
of air between calls for cooling or heating. The circulation
of air occurs at half the full cooling airow rate. This can
produce more even temperatures throughout the home and/
or continuous operation of IAQ accessories.
To enable the continuous blower operation, place the
fan switch on the thermostat into the ON position. A call
for fan from the thermostat closes R to G on the blower
interface board. The control waits for a 1-second thermostat
debounce delay before responding to the call for fan by
ramping the circulating blower up to 50% of the cooling
speed. When the call for continuous fan is satised, the
control immediately ramps down the circulating blower.
Humidier
Terminals are provided on the control board which provides a
120-volt output to operate a humidier. The “HUM” terminal is
energized whenever the thermostat calls for heat. Refer to
furnace wiring diagram for specic connection information.
Electronic Air Cleaner
Terminals are provided on the control board for connection
of a 120-volt electronic air cleaner. The “EAC” terminal is
energized whenever the thermostat calls for heat, cooling,
or continuous blower. Refer to the furnace wiring diagram
for specic connection information.
Variable Speed Features
This furnace is equipped with a variable speed circulation
air blower motor that will deliver a constant airow within a
wide range of external static pressures. Other features of
this variable speed motor include:
For situations where humidity control is a problem, a
dehumidication feature has been built into the variable
speed motor. At the start of each cooling cycle, the variable
speed motor will run at 82% of the rated airow for 7.5
minutes. After 7.5 minutes has elapsed, the motor will
increase to 100% of the rated airow.
To achieve additional dehumidification, remove the
dehumidify jumper located at the bottom right of the blower
interface board (see Figure 11) and connect a humidity
control that opens on humidity rise to the HUM and R
terminals. The HUM terminal on the blower interface
board must be connected to the normally closed contact
of the humidity control so that the board senses an open
circuit on high humidity. In this setup, the variable speed
motor will operate at 82% of the normal cooling airow rate
whenever there is a call for dehumidication. When the
relative humidity has been brought down to an acceptable
level, the cooling blower speed will return to 100% of design.
Circulating Airow Adjustments
Cooling Mode
The units are factory set for the nominal airow for each
model. Adjustments can be made to the cooling airow by
changing the position (A, B, C, or D) of the jumper plug on the
tap marked COOL (on the blower interface board) based on
the information provided in Figure 10. To determine what CFM
the motor is delivering at any time, count the number of times
the LED labeled CFM on the blower interface board ashes.
Each ash signies 100 CFM; count the ashes and multiply
by 100 to determine the actual CFM delivered (for example:
10 ashes x 100 = 1000 CFM).
Moving the jumper plug on the tap marked ADJUST from
the NORM position to the (+) or (–) position will increase or
decrease the cooling airow (Y or O call) by 15%. Changing
the position of the ADJUST jumper plug does not affect
heating airow except if a heat pump is used in conjuction
with the oil furnace. If a heat pump is used, moving the
ADJUST jumper plug to the (+) or (–) position will increase
or decrease the airow by 15% when operating in all heat
pump modes, but will not affect heating airow when the oil
furnace is used for heating.
Blower Ramp Up
The variable speed motor will slowly ramp up to normal
operating speed. This minimizes sound and increases
comfort by eliminating the initial blasts of air encountered
with standard blower motors.
Blower Ramp Down
At the end of a cooling or heating cycle, the variable speed
motor will slowly ramp down. If continuous blower operation
has been selected, the variable speed motor will slowly ramp
down to 50% of the selected cooling CFM.
Passive and Active Dehumidication
For single stage cooling, jumper Y1 and Y2 to obtain rated
cooling CFM. In two stage cooling conguration, Y1 will
produce 70% of rated cooling CFM and Y2 will produce
100%.
Heating Mode
The unit as shipped is factory set to run at the middle of the
heating rise range as shown on the unit rating plate. The
jumper plug on the tap marked HEAT should remain in the
position (A, B, C, or D) listed in the HEAT Setting column
found in Figure 10.

Oil Burner
Burner Specication: Factory Settings
1. Burner type: NX
2. Air tube combination: NX70LHHS
WARNING
Do not attempt to start the burner when excess oil has
accumulated in the chamber, when the furnace is full
of vapor, or when the combustion chamber is very hot.
Such actions could result in property damage, personal
injury, or death.
CAUTION
Do not start burner unless blower access door is secured
in place.
Burner Start-Up
1. Set the operating control to call for heat.
2. Open all shutoff valves in the oil supply line to burner.
3. While the ignition is on, press and release the reset
button (hold 1/2 second or less). If the control has not
locked out since its most recent complete heat cycle,
the lockout time will be extended to 4 minutes, and the
ignition will remain on for the entire heat cycle.
4. Bleed the pump until all froth and bubbles are purged. The
bleed port is located on the bottom of the fuel pump.
To bleed, attach a clear plastic hose over the vent plug.
Loosen the plug and catch the oil in an empty container.
Tighten the plug when all the air is purged. NOTE:
Bleeding might not be necessary with a two-pipe
system.
5. If prime is not established within the extended lockout time,
the control will lock out. Press the reset button to reset
control (see Step 3). NOTE: The reset button can be
held for 15 seconds for the Beckett 7505B primary
control, at any time to reset the control’s lockout
counter to zero and send the control to standby.
6. Repeat Steps 3 and 4, if necessary, until pump is fully
primed and oil is free of bubbles. Then terminate the call
for heat, and the control will resume normal operation.
All adjustment to this furnace and its components must
be done by a qualied service technician.
Refer to Table 2 for nozzle and pump pressure information.
The proper way to adjust an oil burner is with a CO2 analyzer

and a smoke gun. A properly adjusted burner will result in
a quiet, clean re which will prevent sooting and minimize
cleaning. Using the following procedure will provide a
margin of reserve air to accommodate variable conditions.
To adjust the burner:
1. Punch a 5/16” diameter service hole in the ue outlet.
This sampling hole should be at least two ue diameters
above the breech, or elbow at the breech, but ahead of
the barometric damper.
2. Operate burner for approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
3. Take a draft reading at the service hole in the ue outlet.
Adjust barometric draft control in the stack to achieve
an overre draft of –.01” to –.02” and a breach of –.02”
to –.04”.
4. Pull and record a smoke reading at the service hole
using an industry standard smoke tester.
5. If the burner is producing more than #1 smoke, adjust
the intake air using the zero setting locking nut and
adjustment screw. Loosen the locking nut approximately
one turn. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise to
increase air or counterclockwise to decrease air.
6. Once the desired smoke level is achieved, use a suitable
test instrument for CO2 to take and record a CO2 reading
at the service hole in the ue outlet.
7. Adjust the air shutter (and air band, if necessary) to
reduce CO2 to the desired percentage.
8. Recheck smoke level.

9. Recheck draft and CO2 reading at the service hole in
the ue outlet.
10. Using a suitable thermometer, obtain and record the ue
gas temperature at the service hole in the ue outlet.
11. Use the CO2 reading and the ue gas temperature
reading to determine unit efciency.
Set the electrode
tip gap spacing
(5/32”) by adjusting
the tips to meet the
two out side marks
shown in Figure
13. Make sure the
tips are centered
about the nozzle
centerline.
Figure 12
To check nozzle alignment:
1. Insert the small end of the “T” gauge into the end of the
cone and measure the nozzle and electrode alignment
against the center lines marked on the gauge.
2. If nozzle is not centered, but found to be too far left or right,
a new nozzle will need to be ordered. Do not attempt to
adjust by bending the 90° elbow in oil line.
12. When the proper combustion and smoke readings have
been achieved, tighten the air shutter screw(s) and air
band screws that were loosened in Step 5.
Nozzle and Electrode Alignment
Proper nozzle and electrode depth and alignment are
essential for proper burner operation.
To check and adjust the nozzle depth:
1. Insert the small end of the “T” gauge into the end of the
cone and measure from the at of the end cone to the
tip of the nozzle. The proper measurement should be
1.13”. When the depth is correct, the tip of the nozzle
should just touch the base of the “T” gauge.
2. Nozzle adjustments are made by sliding the entire
nozzle assembly forward or backward within the blast
tube.
OPERATION
Sequence of Operation
Heating (see Figure 13 on page 12)
The thermostat calls for heat, activating the burner motor. After a
15-second pre-purge period, power is sent to the burner and
ignition is established. When the burner pump reaches full
speed, the solenoid valve is energized. After the thermostat
is satised, the thermostat circuit opens. The solenoid valve
is de-energized before the pump rotation stops. Power to
the burner is interrupted, shutting down the burner.
Cooling
Unit is set up at the factory for single stage cooling. For two
stage cooling operation, the jumper wire running from Y1
to Y2 on the blower interface board must be clipped and
removed. See Figure 17 on page 14 for two stage cooling
wiring.
If the active dehumidification feature is enabled, the
circulating blower runs at 82% of the selected cooling speed

IMPORTANT
The system must not be in either the passive or active
dehumidication mode when charging a cooling system.
as long as there is a call for dehumidication.
Single Stage Cooling (see Figure 14)
A call for cooling from the thermostat closes the R to Y
circuit on the blower interface board. The control waits
for a 1-second delay before energizing the circulating
blower to 82% of the selected cooling CFM (passive
dehumidication mode). After 7.5 minutes, the circulating
blower automatically ramps up to 100% of the selected
cooling airow. When the call for cooling is satised, the
Single Stage Cooling
blower motor runs at 70% of the selected cooling air ow
until 1st stage cooling demand is satised.
A call for 2nd stage cooling from the thermostat closes the
R to Y2 circuit on the blower interface board. The blower
motor ramps up to 100% of the selected cooling air ow.
Two Stage Cooling
Figure 15
When the demand for cooling is met, the blower ramps
down to Y1 until satised, then ramps down to 57% for 1
minute, then turns off.
Heat Pump
For heat pump operation, clip the jumper wire between R and
O. In heat pump mode, a call for heat pump operation follows
the same sequence as a call for cooling with the exception that
there is a 30-second blower ramp up to blower CFM.
Continuous Fan (see Figure 16)
When the thermostat is set for continuous fan operation and
there is no demand for heating or cooling, a call for fan closes
the R to G circuit and the circulating blower motor runs at 50%
of the selected cooling CFM until switched off.
Figure 14
circulating blower ramps back down to 82% of the selected
cooling airow for 1 minute, then shuts off.
Two Stage Cooling (see Figure 15)
A call for 1st stage cooling from the thermostat closes the
R to Y1 circuit on the blower interface board. The control
waits for a 1-second delay before energizing the circulating
blower. The blower motor runs at 57% of the selected air
ow for the rst 7.5 minutes of the 1st stage cooling demand
(passive dehumidication mode). After 7.5 minutes, the

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Oil Burner
It is recommended that the nozzle and oil lter be checked
before each heating season. Also recheck the conditions
shown on the OIL FURNACE START-UP CHECKLIST
found on page 2.
Close the oil line shutoff valve if the burner is shut down
for an extended period of time.
Heat exchanger cleanout kit #ABRSH380-3 is available for
purchase.
Emergency Replacement Motor Operation
If the variable speed motor in this furnace needs to be
replaced in an emergency situation (such as “no heat”) and
an exact replacement motor is not immediately available,
a standard PSC motor of equivalent frame size, voltage,
rotation, and horsepower can be temporarily installed until
the correct replacement motor can be obtained.
Flue Pipe
Have the ue pipe inspected annually by a qualied service
technician. If any soot or ash has formed inside the ue
pipe, remove and clean. If the ue pipe has any holes or is
rusted out, replace with a new ue pipe of the same size.
Inspect the ue draft control device and replace if defective.
Blower
Blower motor is pre-lubricated and sealed for extended
operation. No further lubrication is required. The blower
assembly may be removed from the cabinet for cleaning
and servicing of the blower. Disconnect power to the unit
before servicing.
Heat Exchanger
To clean the heat exchanger:
1. Remove the vent pipe from the furnace.
2. Remove the locking screws and the caps from the two
cleanout tubes; remove the ue access elbow.
3. Using a long spiral wire brush, sweep down the outer
drum of the heat exchanger. Using a shop vacuum hose
attachment, vacuum out all loose debris.
4. Remove the locking screw and cap from the inspection
tube and with the spiral wire brush reach upward
toward the rear of the heat exchanger to clean out the
crossover tube; replace the locking screw and cap on
the inspection tube.
5. Do not attempt to clean the combustion chamber, as it
can be easily damaged.
6. Replace the three previously removed cleanout caps
and ue access elbow, making sure to re-install the
locking screws.
Connect the desired speed taps to the HEAT and COOL
terminals and the neutral tap to the neutral terminal on the
control board (refer to the furnace wiring diagram).
Verify that the unit is operating at the desired speed and
within the rise range as shown on the unit rating plate. The
correct replacement motor must be installed as soon
as possible to ensure continued satisfactory operation
of the furnace.
Emergency Fuel Pump Replacement
If replacement of the A2EA6520 fuel pump becomes
necessary, replace it with another Beckett CleanCut
fuel pump. In an emergency situation where the correct
replacement parts are not available, an A2VA7116 fuel
pump could be used. This option can produce a smoky
start-up and shutdown that could result in fouling of a heat
exchanger. This is only a short-term option and should
be used only until the correct parts can be obtained
and installed.
