d. Jumper R and W/W1 thermostat connections on control
to start furnace.
e. Turn medium--heat adjusting screw counterclockwise
(out) to decrease manifold pressure or clockwise (in) to
increase manifold pressure.
NOTE: DO NOT set medium--heat manifold pressure less than
1.3-- in. wc or more than 1.7--in. wc for natural gas.
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in reduced furnace
life.
DO NOT bottom out gas valve regulator adjusting screws.
This can result in unregulated manifold pressure and result
in excess over--fire and heat exchanger failures.
CAUTION
!
NOTE: If orifice hole appears damaged or it is suspected to have
been redrilled, check orifice hole with a numbered drill bit of
correct size. Never redrill an orifice. A burr--free and squarely
aligned orifice hole is essential for proper flame characteristics.
(See Fig. 61.)
f. Move setup switch SW4--2 to OFF position after com-
pleting medium--heat adjustment.
g. Jumper R and W/W1 and W2 thermostat connections on
furnace control. (See Fig. 33.) This keeps furnace locked
in high--heat operation.
h. Turn high--heat adjusting screw counterclockwise (out)
to decrease manifold pressure or clockwise (in) to in-
crease manifold pressure.
NOTE: DO NOT set high--heat manifold pressure less than
3.2--in. wc or more than 3.8--in. wc for natural gas.
i. Remove jumpers R to W/W1 and R to W2.
j. Wait for blower off--delay to finish then reset 115--v
power to furnace.
k. Jumper R and W/W1 thermostat connections on control
to start furnace.
l. Wait for the blower to turn ON then check low--heat mani-
fold pressure. It should be between .5 to .6--in. wc. This
setting should not require adjustment but if it does re-
move the low--heat adjustment cap (See Fig. 60) and turn
the low--heat adjusting screw clockwise (in) to decrease
manifold pressure or counterclockwise (out) to increase
manifold pressure. You will only have 15 minutes to
make an adjustment if needed. If you need more time then
move setup switch SW1--2 on control center to ON posi-
tion (See Fig. 33).
NOTE: DO NOT set low--heat manifold pressure before setting
medium--heat manifold pressure. DO NOT set low--heat manifold
pressure less than .5--in. wc or more than .6--in. wc for natural
gas.
m. When correct manifold pressures are obtained, replace
caps that conceal gas valve adjustment screws. Main
burner flame should be clear blue, almost transparent.
(See Fig. 62.)
n. Remove jumper across R and W/W1. If necessary move
setup switch SW1--2 to the OFF position.
3. Verify natural gas input rate by clocking gas meter.
NOTE: Be sure all pressure tubing, combustion--air and vent
pipes, and burner enclosure front are in place when checking
input by clocking gas meter.
a. Calculate high--altitude adjustment (if required).
UNITED STATES
At altitudes above 2000 ft. (609.6M), this furnace has
been approved for 2 percent derate for each 1000 ft.
(304.8M) above sea level. See Table 11 for derate multi-
plier factor and example.
CANADA
At installation altitudes from 2000 to 4500 ft. (609.6 to
1371.6M), this furnace must be derated 5 percent by an
authorized Gas Conversion Station or Dealer. To determ-
ine correct input rate for altitude, see example and use
0.95 as derate multiplier factor.
EXAMPLE: 80,000 BTUH HIGH--HEAT INPUT
FURNACE INSTALLED AT 4,300 ft. (1310.6M).
Furnace Input Rate at Sea Level X Derate Multiplier Fact-
or = Furnace Input Rate at Installation Altitude
80,000 X 0.91 = 72,800
b. Reinstall burner box cover.
NOTE: Clocking gas input rate MUST always be performed
with the burner box cover INSTALLED.
c. Check that gas valve adjustment caps are in place for
proper input to be clocked.
d. Obtain average heat value (at altitude) from local gas sup-
plier.
NOTE: Be sure heating value of gas used for calculations is
correct for your altitude. Consult local gas utility for altitude
adjustment of gas heating value.
e. Check and verify orifice size in furnace. NEVER
ASSUME THE ORIFICE SIZE. ALWAYS CHECK
AND VERIFY.
f. Turn off all other gas appliances and pilots.
g. Move setup switch SW4--2 to ON position. (See Fig. 33.)
This keeps furnace locked in medium--heat operation.
