3. Open manual valve and operate heater. Depress and hold door safety switch.
4. Cycle burner once or twice to properly seat adjustment spring in valve and observe manometer gauge to measure
outlet pressure of gas valve.
⚠ CAUTION ⚠
DO NOT bottom out the gas valve regulator screw. This can result in excessive overfire and heat
exchanger failure due to unregulated manifold pressure.
5. If manometer reading does not indicate that valve outlet pressure is in accordance with Table 23, remove cap
from regulator screw(s) (see Figure 28) and adjust pressure by turning regulator screw IN (clockwise) to increase
pressure or OUT (counterclockwise) to decrease pressure.
6. When manometer reading indicates that outlet pressure is in accordance with Table 23, disconnect manometer
and install cap(s) on regulator screw(s).
