Servicing

Instructions

■

Do not use pliers when removing or tightening the

attachment nut or connector nut. Doing so will

round off the nuts creating service problems.

■

Insure dirt or debris has not fallen into the power

unit prior to thermocouple installation. Dirt and

debris will block the electrical pathway of the

thermocouple, creating pilot outages.

■

Insure the thermocouple is fully and firmly

positioned in the pilot bracket by either its

attaching nut or clip.

■

Do not make sharp kinks or bends in the

thermocouple’s copper tube. Doing so may

damage the thermocouple.
