Gas valve adjustment procedure
If adjustment of the gas valve is deemed necessary, use the
following procedures: (Note:
The procedures below are
model specific.)
Models 150 - 285
Locate the throttle adjustment screw on the side of the venturi
valve (FIG. 3-2). Using a screwdriver, turn the screw a 1/4
turn clockwise to decrease CO
2
levels or a 1/4 turn
counterclockwise to increase CO
2
levels. After performing
one adjustment on the valve, follow the Combustion Analysis
Procedure on page 32 of this manual to measure the
combustion.
If combustion is still not within the specified range, repeat the
procedure. This procedure SHOULD NOT be performed
more than four (4) times. If after four (4) adjustments and
the combustion is still not within the specified range, revisit
the possible causes in Table 3F on page 32 or replace the gas
valve.
