11- Setthethermostattodesiredsetting,
NOTE - When unit is initially started, steps 1 through 11
may need to be repeated to purge air from gas line.
12- If the appliance will not operate, follow the instructions
"Turning Off Gas to Unit" and call your service techni-
cian or gas supplier.
Turning Off Gas to Unit
1 - Set the thermostat to the lowest setting,
2 - Turn off all electrical power to the unit if service is to be
performed.
3 - Remove the upper access panel.
4 - Move the gas valve switch to the OFF position.
5 - Replace the upper access panel,

1 - Operate unit at least 15 minutes before checking gas
flow. Determine the time in seconds for one revolu-
tions of gas through the meter,
2 - Compare the number of seconds and the gas meter
size in table 32 to determine the gas flow rate. Multiply
the gas flow rate by the heating value to determine the
unit input rate, If manifold pressure is correct and the
unit input rate is incorrect, check gas orifices for proper
size and restriction,
3 - Remove temporary gas meter if installed,
NOTE - To obtain accurate reading, shut off all other gas
appliances connected to meter.
Manifold Pressure Measurement
To correctly measure manifold pressure, the differential
pressure between the positive gas manifold and the nega-
tive burner box must be considered, Use pressure test
adapter kit (available as Lennox part 10L34) to assist in
measurement.
1 - Connect test gauge "+" connection to manifold pres-
sure tap on gas valve,
2 - Tee into the gas valve regulator vent hose and con-
nect test gauge "-" connection,
3 - Start unit on low heat (40% rate) and allow 5 minutes
for unit to reach steady state,
4 - While waiting for the unit to stabilize, notice the flame.
Flame should be stable and should not lift from burner,
Natural gas should burn blue,
5- After allowing unit to stabilize for 5 minutes, record
manifold pressure and compare to value given in table
33.
6 - Repeat steps 3, 4 and 5 on high heat,
NOTE- Shut unit off and remove manometer as soon as an
accurate reading has been obtained. Take care to replace
oressure tap plug.
