CAUTION
Only use the appropriate roof jack.
See TABLE 4 & TABLE 5 for correct application.
Do not exceed the maximum height as determined from
TABLE 4 & TABLE 5. Installer should allow an addition-
1
al 1--
/2” travel before the flue pipe assembly is fully extended against the built--in stop. This provides an additional safeguard against the flue assembly being pulled
from the roof jack during transportation or other stress
conditions.
Improper installation may damage the equipment, can
create a hazard, and will void the warranty.

ing just a bove the control panel.
b. Connect the thermostat wires to the furnace low
voltage pigtails (See Figure16).
c. Connect low---voltage circuit to the wall thermostat
pigtails.
A separate 120 V.A.C. supply circuit must be used for the
furnace. The circuit should be protected by a 15 amp fuse
or circuit breaker.
This screw does not
need to be removed in
order to remove the
field wiring cover. (just
loosen).
WALL THERMOSTAT
Avoid locations where the thermostat could be subject to
drafts from outside, or exposed to direct light from lamps,
sun, fireplaces, etc., or affected by air from a duct register
blowing directly on the thermostat.
NOTE:
Cover should
not be removed
except when
servicing the
controls.
Figure 16
The wall thermostat should be mounted approximately 5
feet from the floor. The preferred location is on an inside
wall situated in an area with good air circulation, and where
the temperature will be reasonably representative of other
living areas the thermostat is controlling.

GAS PIPING
INSTALLATION AND CHECKING OF GAS LINE
Gas Supply piping must be sized in accordance with the
recommendations contained in “American National Standard Institute Installation of Ga s Piping” ANSI 223.1 unless
local codes or regulations state otherwise.
Materials used and pipe sizing for U.S. mobile homes must
comply with requirements contained in Mobile Homes
A119.1, Recreational Vehicles A119.2 and H.U.D. Title 24,
Section 280.705 and any local or state codes.
NOTE
Thegaslineinletonthegasvalveis1/2--- 1 4 N . P.T. T h e g a s
line may be installed through the furnace floor or furnace
side to the gas valve.
CAUTION
To install gas line and to connect it to the gas valve, care
must be taken to hold gas valve firmly to prevent misalignment of the burner orifice, or to damage gas valve
which could result in improper heating, explosion, fire
or asphyxiation.
DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE PIPE SEALANT ON PIPE
JOINTS. Pipe sealant, metal chips or other foreign material that could be deposited in the inlet of the gas
valve, when gas pipe is installed or carried through the
gas piping into the gas valve inlet after installation, may
cause the gas valve to malfunction and could result in
possible improper heating, explosion, fire or asphyxiation. Al so, pipe sealant must be resistant to Propane
gas.
Where regulations require, a main shut--off valve shall
be installed externally of furnace casing. After piping
has been installed, turn gas on and check all connections with a leak detector or soap solution.
NEVER USE OPEN FLAME. FIRE OR EXPLOSION
COULD OCCUR.
Do not test the fuel system at more than 14” W.C. after
furnace has been connected to fuel line. Such testing
could void the warranty. Any test run above 14” W.C.
may damage furnace control valve which could cause
an explosion, fire or asphyxiation.
IMPORTANT
When converting valve from or to Propane gas, it will be
necessary to change main burner orifice to prevent an underfired or overfired condition. See furnace nameplate for
complete instructions.
CAUTION
If the gas input to the furnace is too great because
of excessive gas pressure, wrong size orifice, high
altitude, etc., the burner flame will be sooty and
may produce carbon monoxide, which could result
in unsafe operation, explosion, and/or fire or asphyxiation.
Observing Burner Operation
1. Observe burner to make sure it ignites. Observe color
of flame. On natural gas the flame will burn blue with
appreciably yellow tips. On Propane gas a yellow flame
maybeexpected.Ifflameisnotthepropercolorcalla
qualified serviceman for service.
2. Let furnace heat until blower cycles on.
3. Turn thermostat down.
4. Observe burner to make sure it shuts off.
5. Let the furnace cool and blower cycle off.
WARNING
Should overheating occur, or the gas supply fail to
shut off, shut off the manual gas valve to the furnace and allow burner to run until furnace cools
down and blower shuts off before shutting off the
electrical supply.
If any abnormalities are observed when checking for correct operation, such as burner failing to ignite or to turn off,
sooty flame, etc., call your nearest authorized service technician as shown in the Service Center List included in the
home owner envelope with the furnace.
Combustion Air
A dirt leg may be required by some local codes to trap moisture and contaminations.
For NAT. gas operation, the furnace is designed for 7” W.C.
inlet gas pressure. Pressure to main burner is then reduced
1
to 3
/2”W.C.
For Propane gas operation, the furnace is designed for 11”
W.C. inlet gas pressure. Pressure to main burner is then
reduced to 10” W.C.
In order for the burner flame to burn efficiently, it must receive adequate combustion air.
The amount of combustion air can be changed by operating the combustion air adjustment rod located beneath the
gas valve. (See Figures 19 and 20.)
The adjustment rod is set at an “average” position at the
factoryandmaybeproperlysetformanyapplications.
23
However, the amount of combustion air required will vary
depending on altitude, actual BTU. content of the gas being used, gas pressure, conversion to another gas, and
other variable factors.
Therefore, it is essential that the burner flame be observed
and any necessary adjustments are made before the furnace is put into service at the final home site. Adjusting the
burner air is considered part of the normal home set ---up
procedure and is the responsibility of either t he home seller
or buyer, depending on their agreement. Adjustments of
this type are not covered by the warranty.
CAUTION
Combustion air adjustments must be made only by
a qualified technician. Improper air adjustment
may cause unsafe operati on, explosion or asphyxiation.
View of Burner Through the Observation Window
To adjust the combustion air:
1. To light and operate furnace see label inside lower furnace door .
2. Allow the burner to burn for about 1 MINUTE.
3. Look through the observation window and observe the
appearance of the flame.
4. On natural gas, the base of the flame should be blue
but the tips of the flame will be yellow. (See Figure 20.)
5. On Propane gas, almost all of the flame will be yellow
although some blue should still be present at the base
of the flame next to the end of the burner. (See Figure
21.)
6. If the flame is too yellow, the combustion air should be
increased. If the flame is excessively blue (no yellow)
the combustion air should be decreased.
7. To adjust the combustion air, loosen the lock screw
holding the combustion air rod in place. Push in on the
rod to increase the combustion air. Pull out on the combustion air rod to decrease the combustion air. Tighten
lock screw after adjustment is made. Do not completely close air damper at any time. Complete closure of air
damper to burner will result in improper operation. See
caution above.

If Furnace Fails to Operate Properly
1. Check setting of thermostat --- and position of HEAT/
COOL switch if air conditioning is installed. If a set --back type thermostat is employed be sure that the thermostat is in the correct operating mode.
2. Check to see that electrical power is ON.
3. Check to see that the knob on the gas control valve is
in the full ON position.
FINAL PROCEDURE
4. Make sure filters are clean, return grilles are not ob structed, and supply registers are open.
5. Be sure that furnace flue piping is open and unobstructed.
If the cause for the failure to operate is not obvious, do
not attempt to service the furnace yourself. Call a qualifiedserviceagencyoryourgassupplier.
Install Furnace Doors
Install the bottom door first by holding the door flush
against the casing and sliding the door down until the
door top and bottom flanges rest in the casing channels. Then install the upper door in the same manner.
Finish and Trim
Alcove and Closet Installations may now be finished and trimmed as necessary.
Leave enough gap above upper furnace door to allowit
to be lifted and removed.
NOTE
See nameplatefor conversion and lighting instructions. Obtain a temperature rise within the ranges specified on the
name plate.
Furnace and Air Conditioner Installations
In an air conditioner is installed w hich does not use the
blower for air distribution and operates completely independent of the furnace, the thermostat system must have
an interlock to prevent the furnace and air conditioner form
operating at the same time. This interlock system usually
contains a heat---cool switch which must be turned to either
HEAT or COOL to activate either heating or cooling operation, or a positive OFF switch on the cooling thermostat.
When used in connection with a cooling unit the furnace
shall be installed parallel with or on the upstream side of the
cooling unit to avoid condensation in the heat exchanger.
For installations with a parallel flow arrangement, the furnace must be equipped with a damper to prevent cold air
from being discharged up around the heat exchanger.
Cold air causes condensation inside the exchanger and
can cause it to rust out w hich can allow products of combustion to be circulated into the living area by the furnace
blower resulting in possible asphyxiation. An air flow activated automatic damper, P/N 7900 ---6771, is available from
furnace manufacturer.
