3. Outlet pressure tap connections:
White-Rodgers 36J54 valve: Back outlet pressure test
screw (inlet/outlet pressure tap) out one turn (counter-
clockwise, not more than one turn).
4. Attach a hose and manometer to the outlet pressure
tap (White-Rodgers valve).
5. Turn ON the gas supply.
6. Turn on power and close thermostat “R” and “W1” con-

8. Remove regulator cover screw from the low (LO) outlet
pressure regulator adjust tower and turn screw clock-
wise to increase pressure or counterclockwise to de-
crease pressure. Replace regulator cover screw.
9. Close thermostat “R”, “W1” and “W2” contacts to pro-
vide a call for high stage heat.
10. Remove regulator cover screw from the high (HI) outlet
pressure regulator adjust tower and turn screw clock-
wise to increase pressure or counterclockwise to de-
crease pressure. Replace regulator cover screw.
