 IMPORTANT
For safety, shut unit o and remove manometer as 
soon as an accurate reading has been obtained. 
Take care to replace pressure tap plug.
G- Proper Combustion
Furnace should operate minimum 15 minutes with correct 
manifold pressure and gas ow rate before checking com-
bustion. See  sections  E- and  F-. Take  combustion  sam-
ple  beyond  the  ue  outlet. TABLE  27  shows  acceptable 
combustions. The maximum carbon monoxide reading 
should not exceed 100 ppm.

H- High Altitude
The  manifold  pressure,  gas  orice  and  pressure  switch 
may require adjustment or replacement to ensure proper 
operation at higher altitudes. See TABLE 28 for manifold 
pressures.  See  TABLE  29  for  gas  conversion  and  pres-
sure switch kits.
