annually by a qualifi ed service technician. This annual
test/inspection should include at least the following:

Replace the oil supply line fi lter. The line fi lter

cartridge must be replaced to avoid contamination

of the fuel unit and nozzle.
Inspect the oil supply system. All fi ttings should be

leak-tight. The supply lines should be free of water,

sludge and other restrictions.
Remove and clean the pump strainer if applicable.
Replace the nozzle with the exact brand, pattern,

gph, fl ow rate and spray angle.


Clean and inspect the electrodes for damage,

replacing any that are cracked or chipped.
Check electrode tip settings. Replace electrodes if

tips are rounded.
Inspect the igniter spring contacts.
Clean the cad cell lens surface, if necessary.
Inspect all gaskets. Replace any that are damaged

or would fail to seal adequately.
Inspect the combustion head and air tube. Remove

any carbon or foreign matter. Replace all damaged

units with exact parts.
Clean the blower wheel, air inlet, air guide, burner

housing and static plate of any lint or foreign

material.
If motor is not permanently lubricated, oil motor with

a few drops of SAE 20 nondetergent oil at each oil

hole. DO NOT over oil motor. Excessive oiling can

cause motor failure.
Check motor current. The amp draw should not

exceed the nameplate.
Check all wiring for secure connections or insulation

breaks.
Check the pump pressure and cutoff function.
Check primary control safety lockout timing.
Check ignition system for proper operation.
Inspect the vent system and chimney for soot
