SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES AND PRECAUTIONS
1.U.S.....No. 1 or No. 2 heating oil only (ASTM D396),
CANADA.....No. 1 stove oil or No. 2 furnace oil only are ap proved
for use and can be burned in this furnace. Refer to the furnace rating plate or SECTION IV of these instructions.
2.Install this furnace only in a location and position as specified in
SECTION I of these instructions.
3.An oil-fired furnace for installation in a residential garage must be
installed as specified in SECTION I of these instructions.
4.Combustion products must be discharged outdoors. The Roof
Jack vent system is the only approved vent system that can be
installed on this furnace. Install as specified in SECTION VI of
these instructions.
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow the safety warnings exactly could result in serious
injury, death or property damage.
Read all instructions before proceeding. Follow all instructions com-
pletely. Failure to follow these instructions could result in equipment
malfunction, causing severe personal injury, death, or substantial
property damage.
5.Test for leaks in the oil line as specified in SECTION VIII of these
instructions.
6.Always install the furnace to operate within the furnace’s intended
temperature rise range. Only connect the furnace to a duct system
which has an external static pressure within the allowable range,
as specified on the furnace rating plate.
7.The return air duct system is not required by the furnace manufacturer. This furnace utilizes a sealed combustion air and vent system referred to as a roof jack. The Roof Jack must be installed as
specified in these instructions and must conform with state, local,
or regional codes.
8.It is permitted to use the furnace for heating of buildings or structures under construction. Installation must comply with all manufacturer’s installation instructions including:
• Proper vent installation;
• Furnace operating under thermostatic control;
• Return air filter door must be sealed to the furnace;
• Air filters in place;
• Set furnace input rate and temperature rise per rating plate
marking;
• Means for providing outdoor air required for combustion;
• Return air temperature maintained between 55ºF (13ºC) and
80ºF (27ºC);
• The air filter must be replaced or thoroughly cleaned upon sub-
stantial completion of the construction process;
• Clean furnace, duct work and components upon substantial
completion of the construction process, and verify furnace
operating conditions including ignition, input rate, temperature
rise and venting, according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
The following requirements to be met:
a.Clean, outside combustion air is provided to the furnace to
minimize the impact of corrosive adhesives, sealants, and
other construction materials. Drywall dust is a major concern
during construction, which can be pulled into the combustion
air path, leading to plugged heat exchangers, burners, and
inducer assemblies.
b.Filter must be installed in the furnace as specified in the
installation instructions, and must be replaced or thoroughly
cleaned prior to occupancy of the home. Again, drywall dust
is the key issue, as that dust can be pulled into the circulating
blower motor, plugging the motor vents, coating the rotors
and stators, etc. which can lead to a potential fire hazard.
c.The temperature of the retu rn air to the furnace must not be
less than 55° F (13° C), with no evening setback or furnace
shutdown, to prevent condensation in the primary heat
exchangers.
d.The air temperature rise must be within the stated rise range
as indicated on the furnace rating plate, and the firing input
rate must be set to the unit nameplate value.
e.The external static pressure of the air distribution system
ductwork must be set for heating operation to be at least 0.12
(.03 kPA) to 0.30 (0.7 kPA) inches water column, based on
the input rate of the furnace, with the lower value for input
rates at 66,000 btu/hr and the upper value for units with input
rates at 84,000 btu/hr.
f.The furnace and ductwork should be thoroughly and com-
pletely cleaned prior to occupancy of the dwelling to insure
the proper operation of the furnace and to avoid potential
health concerns.
9.In Canada refer to the Oil-fired Central Furnace Installation code,
CANCSA B139 When installed in a Manufactured (Mobile) Home,
combustion air shall not be supplied from occupied spaces.
10. The size of the unit should be based on an acceptable heat loss
calculation for the structure. ACCA, Manual J or other approved
methods may be used.
11. Manufactured (Mobile) Home and Modular Home Installation:
This appliance must be installed in a (sealed combustion) configuration using a roof jack vent system. A roof jack is the only
approved vent system that can be used to vent this appliance.
12. Modular Home Definition: Factory-built home constructed to the
state, local, or regional code where the house will be located. The
home is transported in one or more modules and joined at the
home site.
13. Manufactured (Mobile) Home Definition: Factory-built home
constructed, transported and installed under the federal building
code administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD Code), rather than to building codes at their
destination. The house is built, transported and installed on a nonremovable chassis.
14. This furnace is approved for installation in trailers or recreational
vehicles.

DUCTWORK GENERAL INFORMATION
The duct system’s design and installation must:
1.Handle an air volume appropriate for the served space and within
the operating parameters of the furnace specifications.
2.Be installed in accordance with standards of NFPA (National Fire
Protection Association) as outlined in NFPA pamphlets 90A and
90B (latest editions), in Canada CAN/CSA-B139, Installation Code
for Oil-Burning Equipment, or applicable national, provincial, or
state, and local fire and safety codes.
3.For Manufactured (Mobile) Home and Modular Home Return
Duct System Installations:
A return air duct and the return air plenum cannot be installed on
this furnace. The return air is drawn through the louvers on the
blower door. The vent system is a Sealed Combustion Direct Roof
Jack Vent System. This is the ONLY vent system approved for use
on this furnace.
4.Complete a path for heated or cooled air to circulate through the
air conditioning and heating equipment and from the conditioned
space.
5.Consideration should be given to the heating capacity required
and also to the air quantity (CFM) required. These factors can be
determined by calculating the heat loss and heat gain of the home
or structure. If these calculations are not performed and the furnace is over-sized, the following may result:
a.Short cycling of the furnace.
b.Wide temperature fluctuations from the thermostat setting.
c.Reduced overall operating efficiency of the furnace.
On DFAA furnaces, the cooling coil must be installed in the bottom
of the casing. DFAH furnaces must have the cooling coil installed
downstream of the furnace. Cooled air may not be passed over the
heat exchanger.

When the furnace is used in conjunction with a cooling coil, the coil
must be installed parallel with, or in the supply air side of the furnace to
avoid condensation in the primary heat exchanger. When a parallel flow
arrangement is used, dampers or other means used to control airflow
must be adequate to prevent chilled air from entering the furnace. If
manually operated, the damper must be equipped with means to prevent the furnace or the air conditioner from operating unless the damper
is in full heat or cool position.
The duct system must be properly sized to obtain the correct airflow
for the furnace size that is being installed.
Refer to Table 8 and the furnace rating plate for the correct rise
range and Table 4 for static pressures.
If the ducts are undersized, the result will be high duct static pressures and/or high temperature rises which can result in a heat
exchanger OVERHEATING CONDITION. This condition can result
in premature heat exchanger failure, which can result in personal
injury, property damage, or death.
HAZARD OF ASPHYXIATION, DO NOT COVER OR RESTRICT
FLOOR OPENING.
The duct system is a very important part of the installation. If the duct
system is improperly sized, the furnace will not operate properly.
The ducts attached to the furnace duct connector should be of sufficient
size so that the furnace operates at the specified external static pressure and within the air temperature rise specified on the nameplate.
IMPORTANT: Fabricate and install an inspection door in the plenum
base below the unit to allow an annual inspection of the heat exchangers. The inspection door can be fabricated by following method.
1.Cut a rectangular opening in the plenum base.
2.A Sheet metal plate can be made that completely covers the opening in the base.
3.The plate must be secured with screws.
4.This plate must be sealed to prevent leaks.
Table 2 is a guide for determining whether the rectangular duct system
that the furnace is being connected to, is of sufficient size for proper furnace operation.

The duct connector is designed for use on ducts down to 12 in (30.5
cm) width. When using the connector on smaller width ducts, there will
not be sufficient clearance to bend the tabs on two sides of the duct
connector.
In such cases the tabs may be attached to the sides of the duct by
using sheet metal screws or other suitable fasteners. Holes for sheet
metal screws are provided in three (3) tabs on each side of the duct
connector. If more than 3 tabs need to be used to provide a more
secure and air tight connection, the remaining tabs can also be fastened to the duct with screws after drilling the required screw hole.
IMPORTANT: The air temperature rise should be taken only after the
furnace has been operating for at least 15 minutes. Temperatures
should be taken 6" (15.2 cm) past the first bend from the furnace in the
supply duct. The return air temperature must be taken at the return air
louvered door. Return static pressures can be taken by pushing probe
through the air filter on the louvered door.
Furnace and Air Conditioner Installations
If an air conditioner is installed which 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 from operating at the same time. This interlock system usu ally 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 which 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, is available from furnace manufacturer. See Figure 12.
NOTE: See label on coil panel for conversion and lighting instructions.
Obtain a temperature rise within the ranges specified on the name
plate.
All installations must have a filter installed.

SECTION III: FILTERS
FILTER INSTALLATION
All applications require the use of a filter. A standard air filter is located
in the return filter rack on the louvered door. The air filter(s) must be
replaced with air filter(s) that are the same size and same type.
Replacement filter size is shown in Table 5.
Downflow Filters:
There are two types of downflow filter racks.
1.FURNACE FILTER RACK: A return filter rack is with two standard
throwaway type filters are supplied on all models. The return filter
rack is located on the inside of the louvered door. This type of filter
rack is designed for two standard air filters only. Pleated Media or
Washable Filters cannot be used in this filter rack because they
cause too much pressure drop causing a reduction in airflow.
2.EXTERNAL RETURN FILTER GRILLE: The second type is an
external return air filter grille that can only be used in applica-tions where the furnace is installed in a closet. This type of filter grille is typically installed in a closet door or wall with the filters
located within 12" (30.5 cm) of the return air opening of the furnace. There must be a minimum clearance of 6" (15.2 cm)
between the front of the furnace and the closet door and/or the furnace and the filter grille to prevent the return air flow from being
obstructed. Refer to Table 1 Unit Clearances to Combustibles.
a.If the standard throwaway filter are used the external filter
grille must have a minimum area of 540 in² (3483 cm²) which
would equal a 15" X 36" (38.1 cm x 91.4 cm) filter grille.
b.If the Pleated Media or Washable Filters are used the exter-
nal filter grille must have a minimum area of 684 in² (4413
cm²) which would equal a 18" X 38" (38.1 cm x 91.4 cm) filter
grille. The increased area is to reduce the pressure drop
across the air filter.
c.Consideration should be given when locating the return filter
grille for maintenance.
d.Any filter that has a large pressure drop should be checked to
be sure the pressure drop caused by the air filter will not prevent the furnace from operating within the rise range, specified on the rating plate and in Table 8. If the furnace does not
operate within the specified rise range then a larger air filter
or an air filter that has a lower pressure drop must be
installed.

OIL SAFETY
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Long or oversized inlet lines may require
the pump to operate dry during initial bleeding period. In such cases,
the priming may be assisted by injecting fuel oil in the pump gearset.
Under lift conditions, lines and fittings must be air tight. To assure this,
“Pipe Dope” may be applied to both the used and unused inlet and both
return fittings. DO NOT USE TEFLON TAPE! DO NOT USE COMPRESSION FITTINGS!
VACUUM CHECK: A vacuum gauge may be installed in either of the 1/
4” NPT inlet ports. The Beckett CleanCut pump should be used where
the vacuum does not exceed 6” hg. (20.3 kPa) single pipe and 12” hg.
(40.6 kPa) two pipe. Remember, running vacuum is the total of all pressure drops (∆P) in the system from tank to inlet of pump.
PRESSURE CHECK: When a pressure check is made, use either the
BLEED PORT OR NOZZLE PORT.
CUTOFF CHECK: To check cut-off pressure, dead head a pressure
gauge in nozzle port. Run burner for short period of time. Shut burner
off. The pressure will drop and hold above zero
.
Pressurized or gravity feed installations must not exceed 3 P.S.I.
20.7 kPa) on inlet line or return line at the pump per NFPA 31. A
pressure greater than 10 P.S.I. (69.0 kPa) may cause damage to

The burner fuel unit is shipped without the bypass plug installed.
You must install this plug on two-pipe oil systems. DO NOT install
the plug in the fuel unit if connected to a one-pipe oil system. Failure to comply could cause fuel unit seal failure, oil leakage, and
potential fire and injury hazard.
Fuel Supply Level With or Above Burner
The burner may be equipped with a single-stage fuel unit for these
installations. Connect the fuel supply to the burner with a single supply
line if you want a one-pipe system (making sure the bypass plug is NOT
installed in the fuel unit). Manual venting of the fuel unit is required on
initial start-up. If connecting a two-pipe fuel supply, install the fuel unit
bypass plug.
The oil supply inlet pressure to the fuel unit cannot exceed 3 psi.
(20.7 kPa) Install a pressure-limiting device in accordance with
NFPA 31.
Fuel Supply Below the Level of the Burner
When the fuel supply is below the level of the burner, a two-pipe fuel
supply system is required. Depending on the fuel line diameter and horizontal and vertical length, the installation may also require a two-stage
pump. Consult the fuel unit manufacturer’s literature for lift and vacuum
capability.
Fuel Line Installation
• Continuous lengths of heavy wall copper tubing are recommended. Always use flare fittings. Never use compression fit-tings.
• Always install fittings in accessible locations. Fuel lines should
not run against the appliance or the ceiling joists (to avoid vibration noise).
CONNECT FUEL LINES
Carefully follow the fuel unit manufacturer’s literature and the latest edition of NFPA 31 for oil supply system specifications. If this information is
unavailable, use the following basic guidelines.
Never use Teflon tape on any fuel fitting. Tape fragments can lodge
in fuel line components and the fuel unit, damaging the equipment
and preventing proper operation.
Fuel Line Valve and Filter
Install two high quality shut-off valves in accessible locations on the oil
supply line. Locate one close to the tank and the other close to the

protection in the event of fire. We recommend this as good industry
practice for all installations.
Install a generous capacity filter inside the building between the fuel

NOTICE SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
This equipment must be installed, adjusted, and started only by a
qualified service technician, an individual or agency, licensed and
experienced with all codes and ordinances, who is responsible for
the installation and adjustment of the equipment. The installation
must comply with all local codes and ordinances and with the
National Fire Protection Standard for Liquid Fuel Equipment, NFPA
31 (or in Canada the installation must comply with CSA B139).
This pump must be used with a control system that provides a valve
on delay (pre-purge).
This furnace is designed to operate on #1 FUEL-OIL or #2 FUELOIL ONLY. Do Not burn any other fuel in this furnace. Burning any
fuel except #1 FUEL-OIL or #2 FUEL-OIL in this furnace can cause
premature heat exchanger burnout, high levels of carbon monoxide, excessive sooting, a fire hazard, personal injury, property damage, and/or death.
In Canada, the furnace is designed to operate on #1 STOVE OIL or
#2 FURNACE OIL ONLY.
THE EFFECT OF ELEVATION ON OIL BURNER
FIRING
The elevation of the installation of a modern high-speed flame retention
oil burner affects the performance of the burner. Allowance for elevation
must be taken into consideration when choosing an oil burner and operating it above 2000 ft. (610m).
It is especially important in high elevation installations to adjust air settings to match the burner nozzle firing rate. As elevation increases
above sea level, the ambient air contains less oxygen. Because there is
less available oxygen per cubic foot of air, the burner must deliver a
greater volume flow (cfm) of air to provide the proper amount of oxygen
for the amount of oil being burned. This is the reason that an increase in
the burner air setting may be required.
It is also important in high elevation installations to consider the maximum firing rate of the burner, so that the heat input as required by the
application is maintained. Regardless of elevation, the oil burner has a
maximum volume flow of air that it can deliver. As a result, the maximum firing rate of the oil burner decreases as the elevation increases,
because the combustion air contains less oxygen. An increase in the
size of a fixed-type retention head, or even the use of an oil burner with
a higher maximum firing rate may be necessary.
The effect of elevation up to 2000 ft. (610 m) is minimal, so no re-rate is
necessary up to 2000 ft. (610 m) elevation. Above 2000 ft. (610 m), for
every 1000 ft. (305 m) above sea level (including the first 2000 ft. (610
m), there is a 1.84% rate reduction of the burner. To assist you, we have
included the following chart and some examples: Refer to Table 7.
The pressure regulator on the fuel pump must not be adjusted in
excess of 100 PSIG (689 kPa).
Pressures exceeding 100 PSIG (689 kPa) may cause an overheating condition which can lead to premature heat exchanger failure,
resulting in a fire or explosion, or cause damage to the furnace of
some of its components that will result in property damage and loss
of life. Refer to Figure 16 for Pressure Regulator Location.

the control panel.
2.Connect the thermostat wires to the furnace low voltage pigtails.
See Figure 21 (heating only) and Figure 22 or 23 (heating and
cooling).
3.Connect low-voltage circuit to the wall thermostat pigtails.
NOTE: Five-conductor thermostat cable is recommended for all installations to allow easy installation of an air conditioning system at a later
time.
Eighteen gauge thermostat wire is highly recommended.
Smaller gauge thermostat wire may be used only if the guideline below
is followed.
Thermostat Wire Length
(Furnace to Thermostat)
0 - 45 feet22
0 - 70 feet18
Do not use the thermostat wire smaller than 22 gauge. If thermostat
wire small than 18 gauge is used, pay particular attention that the connections between the difference wire sizes are tight.
Operational problems may be caused by loose connections or by the
use of thermostat wire that is too small to carry the required load. Any
such problems are the responsibility of the installer.
A separate 115 V.A.C. supply circuit must be used for the furnace. The
circuit should be protected by a 15 amp fuse or circuit breaker.
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.
The wall thermostat should be located 52 to 66 inches above 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.

SECTION VI: VENT/COMBUSTION AIR
SYSTEM
VENT AND COMBUSTION AIR SAFETY
This furnace is designed for Manufactured (Mobile) Home and Modular
Home application. It may be installed without modification in an equipment room, alcove, or any other indoor location where all required
clearance to combustibles and other restrictions are met.
The venting system must be installed in accordance with UL311 Standard For Safety for Roof Jacks for Manufactured (Mobile) Homes and
Recreational Vehicles, NFAA 501C and in the Federal Manufactured
Home Construction and Safety Standings, or CAN/CSA - B139-00
Installation Code for 0il Burning Equipment (latest edition), or applicable
provisions of the local building code and these instructions. The furnace
shall not be connected to any chimney, a flue serving a separate appliance, or any appliance designed to burn solid fuel.
It is recommended that the appliance is installed in a location where the
space temperature is 32 °F (0°C) or higher. If the appliance is installed
in a location where the ambient temperature is below 32 °F (0°C), the
combustion by-products could condense causing damage to the appliance heat exchanger and/or the Roof Jack.
IMPORTANT: The “VENT SYSTEM” must be installed as specified in
these instructions for Manufactured (Mobile) Home and Modular
Homes. This appliance must be vented with an approved manufacturer
supplied roof jack. May not be common vented with another gas-fired or
oil-fired appliance.

EXTERIOR ROOF JACK EXTENSION
Application
Available to comply with instances in which the roof jack crown needs to
be raised to meet a roof clearance requirement. One extension will
raise the roof jack crown by 18” 45.7 cm).
ROOF JACK
Failure to follow all venting instructions can result in fire,
asphyxiation, or explosion.
Only use the appropriate roof jack. See Figures 26, 27,
30, and 31 for correct application.
Do not exceed the maximum height as determined from
Table 9. Installer should allow an additional 1-1/2" (3.8
cm) 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.
EXISTING FURNACE REPLACEMENT
If this furnace replaces an existing furnace, do the following:
1.If a 2nd roof, roof cap or addition has been made to the existing
roof of the home, remove the old roof jack completely! To avoid the
possibility of an improperly installed pipe or gaps in the old roof
jack, INSTALL A NEW ROOF JACK. You r ceiling and roof height
will determine the correct roof jack to use.
2.After unpacking the roof jack, check the rain caps. Insure they are
not damaged, tilted or crooked. Do not twist, crush or sit on the
roof caps during installation. Damaged roof caps will cause
improper furnace operation. The furnace will not heat properly and
could result in explosion.
3.Before inserting the roof jack into the furnace top, inspect the fur -
nace flue and combustion air opening for debris or insulation
which might have fallen in during pre-installation steps. Do not proceed unless all debris has been cleaned out or removed.
4.After installing roof jack on furnace top collar, check to make sure
there is no gap in back or side between the pipe collar and the furnace casing top.
5.Use only the pipes provided with the roof jack assembly. Do not
add to or adapt other sheet metal pipes. Do not cut, insert or add
other pipes to this assembly.
6.In no case should there be a gap between sections of the flue pipe
or the combustion air pipe. If necessary to prevent excessive air
leakage, the installer should seal joints in the combustion air tube
with Chemcaulk 900 sealant or other suitable sealant.
NEW HOME INSTALLATION
If this furnace is installed in a new home do the following:
1.Inspect the furnace top collars for signs of insulation or ceiling
debris which might have fallen in during cutting of the ceiling and
roof holes. Remove all debris before continuing.
2.After unpacking the roof jack, check the rain caps. Insure they are
not damaged, tilted or crooked. Do not twist, crush or sit on the
roof caps during installation. Damaged roof caps will cause
improper furnace operation. The furnace will not heat properly and
could result in explosion.
3.Before inserting the vent pipe into the furnace top, inspect the furnace flue and combustion air opening for debris or insulation
which have fallen in during pre-installation steps. Do not proceed
unless all debris have been cleaned out or removed.
4.After installing roof jack on furnace top collar, check to make sure
there is no gap in back or side between the pipe collar and the furnace casing top. If necessary to prevent excessive air leakage, the
installer should seal joints in the combustion air tube with Chemcaulk 900 sealant or other suitable sealant.
INSTALLATION IN SNOW REGIONS
When the combustion air pipe inlet is covered or blocked with snow, the
furnace will not operate properly due to the depleted combustion air
supply.
Therefore, if the furnace will be located in regions where snow accumulation on the roof exceeds 4" or in H.U.D. Snow Load Zones, a roof jack
extension and PVC combustion air inlet extension is recommended.
Refer to Figure 26 or 27.
COMBUSTION AIR INLET
All combustion air pipe and fittings must conform to American National
Standards Institute (ANSI) standards and American Society for Testing
and Materials (ASTM) standards D1785 (Schedule 40 PVC), D2665
(PVC-DWV), F891 (PVC-DWV cellular core). D2241 (SDR-21 and
SDR-26 PVC), D2261 (ABS-DWV), or F628 (Schedule 40 ABS. Pipe
cement and primer must conform to ASTM Standards D2564 (PVC) or
D2235 (ABS).
1.Mark vertical combustion air inlet centerline on ceiling. Cut hole for
combustion air inlet piping. Clearance to combustible materials is
not required.
2.Cut hole in roof. Provide minimum 12” (30.5 cm) vertical separation between combustion air inlet pipe and roof jack vent cap.
Clearance to combustible materials is not required.
3.Route piping through ceiling and holes. Provide firestop as
required.
4.Insert combustion air inlet coupling into casing. See Figure 26 or
27.
5.Slide PVC pipe into coupling. Use a hose clamp to secure the PVC
pipe to the coupling.
6.Complete piping through roof. Provide flashing at roof penetration.
7.Prepare elbow assembly. See Figure 25. Insert screen into elbow
socket. Secure in place with street elbow (or nipple).
8.PVC pipe can be straight through the roof or it can be offset by
using up to 4-90° elbows. Horizontal PVC pipe can be up to 10 ft.
(3.1 m) long in any direction from the furnace vent connection. Vertical PVC pipe can be up to 10 ft. (3.1 m) in length.
90° Street
Elbow
Screen

Elbow
The vent and combustion air openings in the top of the furnace
must be free of construction debris before the Roof Jack is
installed. Failure to ensure that these openings are free will result in
excessive amounts of CARBON MONOXIDE and elevated heat
exchanger temperatures which can lead to premature heat
exchanger failure, resulting in a fire or explosion or cause damage
to the furnace or some of its components that will result in property
damage and loss of life.
FIGURE 25: Elbow Assembly
9.Attach elbow assembly to combustion air inlet piping. See Figure
26 or 27. Inlet must be minimum 6” (15.2 cm) above highest anticipated snow level, but no more than 24” 61.0 cm) above roof.

INTERIOR EXTENSIONS
There is an optional 11” (43.2 cm) long interior extension that can be
used to provide added interior roof jack length, if needed. To choose the
proper length roof jack with or with-out the optional extension see Figures 30 and 31 and Table 9. More than one interior extension may be
used to accommodate “A” dimensions up to 110” (284.5 cm).
The joint where the optional interior extension connects to the roof
jack must be below the ceiling. Failure to observe this requirement
may result in asphyxiation, fire, or explosion
NOTE: Use of an interior extension will increase the roof jack adjustable heights by the amount of the interior extension height.

SECTION VIII: START-UP AND
ADJUSTMENTS
The initial start-up of the furnace requires the following additional
procedures:
IMPORTANT: All electrical connections made in the field and in the fac-
tory should be checked for proper tightness.
When the oil line is initially connected to the furnace, the tubing may be
full of air. In order to purge this air, it is recommended that the bleed
valve be loosened until no air bubbles are detected in the plastic tubing.
If burner does not light, press the reset button on the primary control
once only and bleed oil pump again. If burner still does not light, turn off
the power to the furnace and call a qualified service technician. DO
NOT CONTINUE TO PRESS THE RESET BUTTON ON THE PRIMARY CONTROL.
TOOLS AND INFORMATION THAT WILL BE
REQUIRED IN ORDER TO PROPERLY PERFORM THE
FURNACE STARTUP PROCEDURE.
1.You will need a thermometer or portable digital thermometer to
read the supply and return air temperatures.
2.You will need a pressure gauge that has the ability to read pressures between 0 - 100 PSIG (0 - 689 kPa) in order to measure the
oil pump pressures.
3.You will need a 3/32” Allen wrench for the pressure port adjustment screw in the oil pump.
4.You will need 1 piece of 1/4” (0.63 cm) ID flexible tubing that is 12”
(30 cm) in length
5.You will need a clear plastic jug.
6.You will need a 7/16” open end or box wrench.
7.You will need a 1/4” brass NPT x flare fitting.
These items are required in order to properly perform the required startup procedure.

START-UP AND ADJUST BURNER
Start-up Burner / Set Combustion
Do not attempt to start the burner when excess fuel or vapor has
accumulated in the appliance. Starting the burner under these conditions could result in a puff back of hot combustion gases, high
smoke levels, or otherwise hazardous operation.
1.Open the shut-off valves in the oil supply line to the burner.
2.Set the air boot adjustment to the setting stated in Table 12. This is
an initial air setting. Additional adjustments must be made with
instruments.
3.Set the thermostat substantially above room temperature.
4.Close the line voltage switch to start the burner. If the burner does
not start, you may have to reset the safety switch of the burner primary control.
5.Vent air from fuel pump as soon as burner motor starts rotating.
• To vent the fuel pump, 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 air has been purged from the oil supply
system.
• If the burner locks out on safety during venting, quickly close the
vent plug, reset the safety switch, open the vent plug when the
motor starts rotation, and complete the venting procedure.
NOTE: Electronic safety switches can be reset immediately; others may
require a 3 to 5 minute wait.
• If the burner stops after flame is established, additional venting is
probably required. Repeat the venting procedure until the pump
is primed and a flame is established when the vent plug is closed.
• For R7184 primary controls, see Technician’s Quick ReferenceGuide, Beckett part number 61351, for special pump priming
sequence.
• Prepare for combustion tests by taking a sample in the flue pipe.
A combustion sample should be taken with a 1/4” (0.4 km) tube
placed in the center of the vent pipe outside beneath the crown
assembly.
6.Initial air adjustment - Using a smoke tester, adjust the air to obtain
a clean flame. Now the additional combustion tests with instruments can be made. Never drill a hole in the roof jack to take combustion sample or smoke tests.

IGNITION SYSTEM SEQUENCE
1.Turn the oil supply ON at external valve on the oil pump, and/or at
the oil tank.
2.Set the thermostat above room temperature to call for heat.
3.System start-up will occur as follows:
a.The burner motor will start and come up to speed.
b.Shortly after the burner motor starts-up, the ignition trans-
former will provide 10,000 volts through the electrods causing
a spark that will last approximately 15 seconds.
c.The solenoid valve on the oil pump will open providing oil flow
to the nozzle.
d.The oil vapor will ignite. The cad cell flame detector will
detect the flame. The resistance will drop below 1600 ohms.
e.After flame is established, the supply air blower will start
when the fan switch reaches approximately 110° F (43.3° C).
f.After flame is extinguished, the supply air blower will continue
to operate until the air temperature at the fan switch is below
o
F (32.2o C).

FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow the safety warnings exactly could result in serious
injury, death or property damage.
Pressing the reset button repeatedly could cause a pool of oil to
form in the bottom of the chamber. If ignited, could result in a very
dangerous situation which could result in personal injury, property
damage, and/or death.
2.Set the over-fire or stack draft to level specified by appliance manufacturer (usually -0.01” to -0.02” w.c. (-000024 to -0.0050 kPa)
over-fire for natural draft applications).
3.Follow these four steps to properly adjust the burner:
a.Step 1: Adjust the air until a trace of smoke level is achieved.
b.Step 2: At the trace of smoke level, measure the CO
(or O2).

4.Once combustion is set, tighten all fasteners on the air adjustment
and escutcheon plate.
5.Start and stop the burner several times to ensure satisfactory
operation. Test the primary control and all other appliance safety
controls to verify that they function according to the manufacturer’s
specifications.
ADJUSTMENT OF TEMPERATURE RISE
IMPORTANT: Burner ign ition may not be satisfactory on first start-up
due to residual air in the oil line or until pump pressure is adjusted. The
ignition control will make 3 attempts to light before locking out.
The furnace should have a safety or fire shut-off valve connected to the
inlet part of the oil pump to shut off the flow of oil in an emergency.
Refer to Figure 36 for inlet port location.

SET COMBUSTION WITH INSTRUMENTS
The combustion must be adjusted using test instruments. Failure to do so could result in burner or appliance failure, causing potential severe personal injury, death, or substantial
property damage.
1.Let the burner run for approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
The temperature rise, or temperature difference between the return
air and the supply (heated) air from the furnace, must be within the
range shown on the furnace rating plate and within the application
limitations shown in Table 8 “ELECTRICAL AND PERFORMANCE
DATA”.
The supply air temperature cannot exceed the “Maximum SupplyAir Temperature” specified in these instructions and on the furnace rating plate. Under NO circumstances can the furnace be
allowed to operate above the Maximum Supply Air Temperature.
Operating the furnace above the Maximum Supply Air Temperature
will cause premature heat exchanger failure, high levels of Carbon
Monoxide, a fire hazard, personal injury, property damage, and/or
death.
After about 20 minutes of operation, determine the furnace temperature
rise. Take readings of both the return air and the heated air in the ducts,
about six feet (1.83 m) from the furnace where they will not be affected
by radiant heat.
FILTER PERFORMANCE
The airflow capacity data published in Table 14 represents blower performance WITH CLEAN filters.
The filter pressure drop values in Table 13 are typical values for the
type of filter listed and should only be used as a guideline. Actual pressure drop ratings for each filter type vary between filter manufacturers.
DO NOT USE Pleated Media or Hogs Hair filters on this furnace.
Be sure to check for leaks in the oil line and fittings. A leak will cause oil
pump to loose it’s prime. Repair leaks before continuing with the final
adjustments to the oil burner.

Example: For a 84,000 BTUH (38.06 kW) furnace with 1 return openings and operating on high-speed blower, it is found that total system
static is 0.30” w.c. (0.075 kPa). To determine the system airflow, complete the following steps:
Obtain the airflow values at 0.10 w.c. (125 Pa) & 0.20 w.c. (150 Pa)
ESP.
Airflow @ 0.10”: 1175 CFM (60.17 m

(150 Pa) to obtain airflow difference.
1175 - 1110 = -65 CFM (2.55 m
Subtract the total system static from 0.10 w.c. (125 Pa) and divide this
difference by the difference in ESP values in the table, 0.20 w.c.

SECTION X: GAS GUN BURNER
These instructions were prepared for the guidance of those installing
this particular gas conversion burner. While they apply in principle to all
installations, they should not be interpreted as meaning the only safe
and economical way to install a conversion burner. It may be necessary
to deviate from these instructions in some instances in order to comply
with local gas company rules or codes in effect in the area in which the
installation is made. It is recommended that the installer confer with the
local gas company and with the proper municipal officials regarding any
specific code or regulation governing the installation of gas conversion
burners, the installation must conform with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the American National Standard Installation of Domestic Gas Conversion Burners, Z21.8 latest edition, and the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-latest edition.
Safe and economical operation of the burner throughout its service life
is dependent to a large extent upon its proper installation in the heating
appliance. Therefore, we may impress upon the installer that good
clean workmanlike installations mean satisfied customers.
PREPARATION OF COMBUSTION CHAMBER
The power gas burner is designed for “inshot” firing into a refactory
lined combustion chamber constructed in the furnace originally
designed for oil firing.
When converting oil designed furnaces, it is recommended that the
same combustion chamber be used with the oil burner. If the blast tube
opening into the combustion chamber is larger than the 4" (101.6 mm)
diameter, high temperature cement should be used to reduce the opening to 4" (101.6 mm) diameter.
IN NO CASE SHOULD THE TUBE BE ALLOWED TO EXTEND INTO
THE CHAMBER. IT MUST BE AT LEAST 1/8" (3.175mm) SHORT OF
THE INSIDE SURFACE OF THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER.
COMBUSTION CHAMBER
The chamber is very fragile. DO NOT come in contact with the chamber
with the vacuum cleaner hose. The suction from the hose will create a
hole in the chamber. Hold hose at an angle when vacuuming chamber.
INSTALLATION OF BURNER AND CONTROLS
The inshot power gas burner was designed especiall y for converting
gun fired oil designed furnaces. Due consideration was given to making
it as simple and easy to install and service as possible without weakening its durability or efficiency. The burner is supplied as a completely
assembled package unit.
NOTE: The burner must be installed in such a manner that the unit and
all controls will be readily accessible for inspection, cleaning, adjustment, and repairs.
.
An overpressure protection device, such as a pressure regulator,
must be installed in the gas piping system upstream of the furnace
and must act to limit the downstream pressure to the gas valve so it
does not exceed 0.5 PSI (14" w.c. (3.48 kPa). Pressures exceeding
0.5 PSI (14” w.c. (3.48 kPa) at the gas valve will cause damage to
the gas valve, resulting in a fire or explosion or cause damage to
the furnace or some of its components that will result in property
damage and loss of life.
GAS PIPING
Installation and Checking of Gas Line
Gas Supply piping must be sized in accordance with the recommendations contained in National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1, NFPA-54)
unless local codes or regulations state otherwise.
Materials used and pipe sizing for U.S. manufactured (mobile) homes
must comply with requirements contained in Manufactured Homes
A119.1, Recreational Vehicles A119.2 and H.U.D. Title 24, Section
3280.705 and any local or state codes.
NOTE: The gas line inlet on the gas valve is 1/2-14 N.P.T. The gas line
may be installed through the furnace floor or either side of the furnace
to the gas valve.

external pressure. Never apply a pipe wrench to the body of the gas
valve when installing piping. A wrench must be placed on the octagon hub located on the gas inlet side of the valve. Placing a wrench
to the body of the gas valve will damage the valve causing improper
operation and/or the valve to leak. Refer to Figure 42.
The gas line should be a separate supply direct from the meter to the
gas valve. It is recommended that new pipe be used and located so that
a minimum amount of work will be required in future servicing. The piping should be so installed as to be durable, substantial and gas tight. It
should be clear and free from cutting burrs and defects in structure or
threading. Cast iron fittings or aluminum tubing should not be used for
the main gas circuit. Joint compounds (pipe dope) should be used sparingly on male threads only and be approved for all gases. Refer to Figures 39, 40, and 41.
It is recommended that the pipe diameter in Table 16 be used to determine the size pipe to use from the meter to the burner.
The building structure should not be weak end by installation for the gas
piping. The piping should not be supported by the other piping, but
should be firmly supported with pipe hooks, straps, bands, or hanger.
Butt or lap welded pipe should not be bent.
The gas piping should be so installed so as to prevent an accumulation
of condensation and it must be protected against freezing. A horizontal
pipe should be pitched so that it grades toward the meter and is free
from sags. The pipe can not be run through or in an air duct or clothes
chute.
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected
from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of the
system at test pressure in excess of 1/2 (3447 PaG) psig.
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing
of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2 (3447 PaG) psig. Refer to Figure 40.

Some utility companies or local codes require pipe sizes larger than the
minimum sizes listed in these instructions and in the codes. The furnace
rating plate and the instructions in this section specify the type of gas
approved for this furnace - only use those approved gases.
IMPORTANT: An accessible manual shut-off valve must be installed
upstream of the furnace gas valve and within 6 feet (1.8 m) of the furnace.
TESTING PIPING FOR LEAKS
Before turning on gas under pressure into piping, all openings from
which gas can escape should be closed. Immediately after turning on
gas, the system should be checked for leaks. This can be done by
watching the 1/2 cubic feet (0.14 m
show any movement, or by soaping each pipe connection and watching
for bubbles. If a leak is found, make the necessary repairs and repeat
the above test.
DEFFECTIVE PIPES OR FITTINGS SHOULD BE REPLACED AND
NOT REPAIRED. NEVER USE A FLAME OR FIRE
LOCATE GAS LEAKS, USE A SOAP SOLUTION.
Properly sized wrought iron, approved flexible or steel pipe must be
used when making gas connections to the unit. If local codes allow the
use of a flexible gas appliance connection, always use a new listed connector. Do not use a connector that has previously serviced another gas
appliance.
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.
30Unitary Products Group
Page 31
107272-UIM-B-1105
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. Also, pipe sealant must be resistant to Propane gas.
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 to test for gas leaks as 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.
A drip leg is required by some local codes to trap moisture and contaminations. Refer to Figure 39 or 40.
For natural gas operation, the furnace is designed for 7" W.C. inlet gas
pressure. Pressure to main burner is then reduced to 3 1/2" W.C at the
gas valve.
Refer to Figure 42 for location of Gas Valve Main Regulator Adjustment.
The furnace must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual external manual shut-off valve during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at pressures equal to or less
than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
Gas piping may be connected from either side of the furnace using any
of the gas pipe entry knockouts on both sides of the furnace. Refer to
Figure 39, Gas Piping.
GAS ORIFICE CONVERSION FOR PROPANE (LP)
This burner is constructed at the factory for natural gas-fired operation,
but may be converted to operate on propane (LP) gas by using a factory-supplied LP conversion kit. Follow the instructions supplied with
the LP kit. Refer to Table 18 or the instructions in the propane (LP) conversion kit for the proper gas orifice size.
IMPORTANT: When converting gas valve from or to Propane gas, it will
be necessary to change main burner orifice to prevent an underfired or
overfired condition. Refer to furnace rating plate or to Table 18 for
proper orifice size.
The manifold pressure does not change when converting to Natural
or Propane Gas. The manifold pressure is 3.5 in w.c. (0.87 kPa) on
both Natural and Propane Gas. Change only the gas orifice when
converting this burner to Natural or Propane Gas. Manifold pressure in excess of 4.0 in w.c (0.99 kPa) can cause premature heat
exchanger failure. High levels of carbon monoxide, excessive sooting, a fire hazard, personal injury, property damage, and/or death.
HIGH ALTITUDE GAS ORIFICE CONVERSION
This furnace is constructed at the factory for natural gas-fired operation
at 0 – 2,000 ft. (0 m – 610 m) above sea level.
The gas orifices on this furnace must be changed in order to maintain
proper and safe operation, when the furnace is installed in a location
where the altitude is greater than 2,000 ft. (610 m) above sea level on
natural gas or the altitude is greater than 4,000 ft. (1219 m) above sea
level on propane (LP) gas. Refer to Table 18 or the instructions in the
high altitude conversion kit for the proper gas orifice size.
For Propane gas operation, the furnace is designed for 11" w.c. (2.74
kPa) inlet gas pressure. Pressure to main burner is then reduced to 3.5"
w.c. (0.87 kPa).
The unit may also be converted for altitudes up to 10,000 ft. (3048 m)
on natural and propane (LP) gas with additional derate as shown in
Table 18 or refer to ANSI Z223.1 NFPA 54 National Fuel Gas Code or in
Canada CAN/CGA-B149.1-00 Natural Gas and Propane Installation
Code.
PROPANE AND HIGH ALTITUDE CONVERSION KITS
It is very important to choose the correct kit and/or gas orifices for
the altitude and the type of gas for which the furnace is being
installed.
Only use natural gas in furnaces designed for natural gas. Only use
propane (LP) gas for furnaces that have been properly converted to
use propane (LP) gas. Do not use this furnace with butane gas.
Incorrect gas orifices or a furnace that has been improperly converted will create an extremely dangerous condition resulting in premature heat exchanger failure, excessive sooting, high levels of
carbon monoxide, personal injury, property damage, a fire hazard
and/or death.
High altitude and propane (LP) conversions are required in order
for the appliance to satisfactory meet the application.
An authorized distributor or dealer must make all gas conversions.
In Canada, a certified conversion station or other qualified agency,
using factory specified and/or approved parts, must perform the
conversion.
The installer must take every precaution to insure that the furnace
has been converted to the proper gas orifice size when the furnace
is installed. Do not attempt to drill out any orifices to obtain the
proper orifice size. Drilling out a gas orifice will cause misalignment
of the burner flames, causing premature heat exchanger burnout,
high levels of carbon monoxide, excessive sooting, a fire hazard,
personal injury, property damage and/or death.
Table shows 4% Input Reduction per 1,000 ft. (304.8 m) Elevation. Reference Source: NFPA No. 54, ANSI Z 223.1, National Fuel Gas Code.
For Canadian high altitude {2000 - 4500 ft. (609.6 - 1,371.6)}, reduce gas manifold pressure to 3.0” w.c. (0.75 kPa) for Natural gas and for Propane gas.
The orifice spud supplied with all burners is the size for the minimum
BTU input of the burner for the type gas shown on the rating plate.
Table 18 shows the correct drill size for various inputs.
The correct manifold pressure for natural and LP gas is 3.5" w.c (0.87
kPa). Only minor adjustments in the input rate should be made by
adjusting the pressure regulator. The minimum manifold pressure
should be 3.0" w.c. (0.75 kPa) and the maximum pressure should be
3.5 w.c. (0.87 kPa) the next size larger or smaller orifice size should be
used if the desired input rating cannot be obtained within the above
manifold pressure adjustment range.
TABLE 19:
(@ 3.5” W.C.)
NOTE: The BTU input valves in the above table show the approximate
hourly input of the burner for the various drill sizes shown. To determine
the actual input of the burner, turn off all other gas appliances.
Failure to follow the steps outlined below for each appliance connected to the venting system being placed into operation could result in carbon
monoxide poisoning or death.
The following steps shall be followed for each appliance connected to the venting system being placed into operation, while all other appliances
connected to the venting system are not in operation:
1. Inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch. Determine that there is no blockage, restriction, leakage, corrosion or other
deficiencies, which could cause an unsafe condition
2. Close all building doors and windows and all doors.
3. Turn on clothes dryers and TURN ON any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they shall operate at maximum
speed. Open the fireplace dampers. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan.
4. Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance being inspected in operation. Adjust thermostat so the appliance shall operate continuously.
5. Test each appliance (such as a water heater) equipped with a draft hood for spillage (down-draft or no draft) at the draft hood relief opening
after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Appliances that do not have draft hoods need to be checked at the vent pipe as close to the
appliance as possible. Use a combustion analyzer to check the CO2 and CO levels of each appliance. Use a draft gauge to check for a
downdraft or inadequate draft condition.
6. After it has been determined that each appliance properly vents when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas burning appliance to their normal condition.
7. If improper venting is observed during any of the above tests, a problem exists with either the venting system or the appliance does not
have enough combustion air (Supply Air from outside) to complete combustion. This condition must be corrected before the appliance can
function safely.
NOTE: An unsafe condition exists when the CO reading at the furnace vent exceeds 40 ppm and the draft reading is not in excess of - 0.1 in.
W.C. (-0.025 kPa) with all of the appliance(s) operating at the same time.
8. Any corrections to the venting system and / or to the supply (outside) air system must be in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code
Z223.1 or CAN/CGA B149.1-00 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code (latest editions). If the vent system must be resized, follow the
appropriate tables in Appendix G of the above codes or for this appliance.
SECTION XI: START-UP AND
ADJUSTMENTS
The initial start-up of the furnace requires the following additional
procedures:
IMPORTANT: All electrical connections made in the field and in the fac-
tory should be checked for proper tightness.
When the gas supply is initially connected to the furnace, the gas piping
may be full of air. In order to purge this air, it is recommended that the
ground union be loosened until the odor of gas is detected. When gas is
detected, immediately retighten the union and check for leaks. Allow
five minutes for any gas to dissipate before continuing with the start-up
procedure. Be sure proper ventilation is available to dilute and carry
away any vented gas.
PURGING
After the piping has been checked, all piping and appliances receiving
gas through the meter shall be fully purged. A suggested method for
purging the gas line to the burner is to allow the burner to cycle until
burner ignites. Do not purge by loosening gas lines. Under no circumstances shall the line be purged into the combustion chamber.
After the gas line to the conversion burner has been fully purged, the
gas supply at other pilot burners located on other gas appliances which
were extinguished as the result of interrupted service will need to be
reignited. Check all appliances to make sure the pilots are ignited.
CALCULATING THE FURNACE INPUT
(NATURAL GAS)
NOTE: Front door of burner box must be secured when checking gas
input.
NOTE: Burner orifices are sized to provide proper input rate using natural gas with a heating value of 1030 BTU/Ft
value of your gas is significantly different, it may be necessary to
replace the orifices.
1.Turn off all other gas appliances connected to the gas meter.

1.Read the applicable sequence of gas control operation in the
Operation and Troubleshooting section before proceeding.
2.Move the gas valve control switch to the “OFF” position.
3.Adjust the primary air. Set the damper to the start up settings.
4.On new gas line installations, air may be trapped in the line, the
burner may experience several lockouts until all the air is purged
from the lines.
5.Turn on the main electrical power and set the thermostat to call for
heat. Allow the burner to run a MINIMUM of 5 minutes to purge
combustion chamber and appliance heat exchanger.
6.Set the thermostat below room temperature, shutting the burner
“OFF”.
7.Move the gas valve control switch to the “ON” position.
8.Set the thermostat or operating control to call for heat. The burner
will start and go through the applicable sequence of burner/primary gas control operation, refer to step 1.
9.Once burner is running, adjust the orifice manifold pressure regulator as described in Pressure Regulator Adjustment.
Be sure to relight any gas appliances that were turned off at the
start of this input check.
CHECKING THE GAS PRESSURES
1.The pressure ports on the gas valve are marked OUT and INLET.
2.The manifold pressure must be taken at the port marked OUT.
3.The inlet gas supply pressure must be taken at the port marked IN
LET.
4.Using a 3/32” (0.2 cm) Allen wrench, loosen the set screw by turning it 1 turn counter clockwise. DO NOT REMOVE THE SET
SCREW FROM THE PRESSURE PORT.
5.Use the 4” (10.2 cm) piece of 3/8” (0.9 cm) tubing to connect the
positive side of the manometer to the gas valve pressure reference port. Refer to Figure 43 for connection details.
TABLE 20:
IMPORTANT: The inlet gas pressure operating range table specifies
the minimum and maximum gas line pressures required for safe furnace operation.
The minimum inlet gas pressure required to obtain the BTU input specified on the rating plate and in these instructions is shown below:

ADJUSTMENT OF MANIFOLD GAS PRESSURE
Manifold gas pressure may be measured at the gas valve.
T urn gas off at the ball valve or gas cock on gas supply line
before the gas valve. Find the pressure ports on the gas
valve marked OUT and INLET.
IMPORTANT: The cap for the pressure regulator must be removed
entirely to gain access to the adjustment screw. Loosening or tightening
the cap does not adjust the flow of gas.
1.Refer to Figure 42 for location of pressure regulator adjustment
cap and adjustment screw on main gas valve.
2.Adjust manifold pressure by adjusting gas valve regulator screw
for the appropriate gas per the following:
TABLE 21:

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 may be expected. If flame is not
the proper color call a qualified service technician 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.
ADJUSTMENT OF TEMPERATURE RISE
The temperature rise, or temperature difference between the return
air and the supply (heated) air from the furnace, must be within the
range shown on the furnace rating plate and within the application
limitations shown in Table 8 “ELECTRICAL AND PERFORMANCE
DATA”.
The supply air temperature cannot exceed the “Maximum SupplyAir Temperature” specified in these instructions and on the furnace rating plate. Under NO circumstances can the furnace be
allowed to operate above the Maximum Supply Air Temperature.
Operating the furnace above the Maximum Supply Air Temperature
will cause premature heat exchanger failure, high levels of Carbon
Monoxide, a fire hazard, personal injury, property damage, and/or
death.
The temperature rise, or temperature difference between the return air
and the heated supply air from the furnace, must be within the range
shown on the furnace rating plate and within the application limitations
as shown in Table 8.
After about 20 minutes of operation, determine the furnace temperature
rise. Take readings of both the filter door and the heated air in the ducts.
Increase the blower speed to decrease the temperature rise; decrease
the blower speed to increase the rise.
Do not energize more than one motor speed at a time or damage to
the motor will result.
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.
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 switch on the gas control valve is in the full
ON position.
4.Make sure filters are clean, return grilles are not obstructed, 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 qualified service agency or your gas
supplier.
PERFORMANCE CHECK
1.After the desired input has been obtained, re-adjust the primary air
damper open or closed to visually obtain a blue flame with well
defined orange or yellow tips for natural gas, or well defined yellow
tips for propane gas.
2.After the burner has been in operation for at least 20 minutes,
assuring combustion chamber and heat exchanger are fully
warmed, take combustion analysis flue gas samples in the flue
pipe.
All adjustments below must be made with the following instructions:
a.Draft Gauge
b.O
2 or CO2
c.CO Tester
d.Water Column Gauge
NOTE: ALWAYS USE RELIABLE COMBUSTION TEST INSTRUMENTS. BEING PROFICIENT IN THE USE OF THESE INSTRUMENTS AND INTERPRETING THE DATA IS NECESSARY FOR
SAFE, RELIABLE AND EFFICIENT BURNER OPERATION.
IT IS ESSENTIAL TO MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE PRODUCTS OF
COMBUSTION DO NOT CONTAIN CARBON MONOXIDE, CO.
The most common causes of CO are flame impingement on cool surface and insufficient primary air, both of which could be caused by over
firing. The only answer is to reduce the firing rate or increase the primary air.
Analyzer

Combustion efficiency is determined by the percent CO2 and the temperature of the flue gases. These two measurements are taken on the
vent. Combustion efficiency and stack loss calculators are available
from several manufacturers of combustion test equipment.
IMPORTANT: DRAFT - When installing Wayne power conversion gas
burners in oil fired furnaces a minimum negative draft of .01” w.c.
(0.0025 kPa) over fire must be maintained.
Refer to your local gas company and codes for assistance.

a.Adjust the primary air damper to provide about 25% excess
combustion air. Confirm this by checking the flue gas for its
FREE OXYGEN (O
) or CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2) PER-
2
CENTAGES with a test instrument. Free oxygen should be
about 4.5%, or carbon dioxide should be about 9.5% for natural gas, 12.1% for propane gas.
b.CARBON MONOXIDE - Should be checked for its presence
in the flue gas. This percentage should not exceed .04% (or
400 PPM).

OPERATION AND TROUBLESHOOTING
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION — SC80-C GAS BURNER UTILIZING HONEYWELL S87K GAS PRIMARY WITH BUILT IN
30 SECOND PREPURGE
On a call for heat, voltage (24V) is applied to motor start relay and air
switch. Once the fan motor reaches operating rpm, combustion air pressure is sensed by the air proving switch and closes the switch contacts
energizing the S89F gas primary control.
The S87K gas primary control has an internal 30 second prepurge
timer. After the initial 30 second prepurge, an internal 8 second safe
start check of the S89F will commence. Once this is successfully completed, the S87K simultaneously energizes the gas valve and ignition
transformer. Gas flows and the transformer produces an approximate
7300 volt spark end point grounded at the burner head establishing
main burner flame.
At the start of each heat cycle, there is a trial for an ignition period of a
four (4) second duration. Normally, burner flame will be established
before the end of this period. Once the flame is established, sparking
will cease and the flame rod will provide flame monitoring to the S87K
gas control primary for the remainder of the heat cycle. If the flame
should be extinguished during the heat cycle, the S87K gas control primary will go into the 30 second prepurge and 8 second safe start check,
then re-energize the gas valve and ignition transformer in an attempt to
establish the main burner flame. If this does not occur within the 4 second trial for ignition period, the S87K gas primary control will go into
lockout de-energizing the gas valve and ignition transformer.
To restart the system, the main power or thermostat must be de-energized momentarily, then re-energized. If, at any time during the heat
cycle, there is an insufficient supply of combustion air to the burner, the
air switch will open, putting the system into lockout, closing the gas
valve.
