INSPECTING BURNERS
Check pilot ame pattern and burner ame
patterns often.
PILOT ASSEMBLY
The pilot assembly is factory preset for the
proper ame height. Alterations may have
occurred during shipping and handling. The
pilot is located on the back right hand side
of the burner.
The height of thermopile must be 3/8" to 1/2"
above pilot ame. Flame from pilot burner
must extend beyond thermopile.
If your pilot assembly does not meet these
requirements:
• Turn adjustment screw marked pilot clock-
wise to decrease or counterclockwise to
increase ame to proper size (see Figure
36, page 19). Do not remove adjustment
screw.
