Thermostat
Wash thermostat with clean water. Using a thermo-
stat tester, similar to the one shown, test thermostat
as follows:
Open thermostat valve, then insert a thread be-
tween valve and thermostat body. Allow valve to
close against thread.
Suspend thermostat (from thread) and thermom-
eter inside tester so that neither touches the con-
tainer. Bottom of thermometer must be even with
bottom of thermostat to obtain correct thermostat
opening.
Fill thermostat tester with water to cover
thermostat.
Plug tester into electrical outlet.
Observe temperature at which thermostat begins
to open. Thermostat will drop off thread when it
starts to open. Thermostat must begin to open
when temperature reaches 5 F (3 C) above
designated stamping on bottom of thermostat.
Continue to heat water until thermostat is com-
pletely open.
Unplug tester unit.
Replace thermostat, if it fails to open at the speci-
fied temperature, or if it does not fully open.
