19. Once the BTU transmitter has been inspected and cleaned, reassemble in the reverse order.
NOTE:
Do not attempt to adjust the Hydraulic Zero Needle Valve. This is a factory-preset item. Refer to
Figure
6.5. If setting has been tampered with or BTU transmitter is being replaced, see procedure in Section
6.12, page 6-17.

6.8 MANIFOLD AND EXHAUST TUBES
The presence of even trace amounts of chlorides and/or sulfur, in the combustion air and fuel sources,
can lead to the formation of deposits on the inside of the exchanger tubes, the exhaust manifold, and/or
the condensate cup. The degree of deposition is influenced by the extent of the condensing operation and
the chloride and sulfur levels that vary significantly from application to application.
The following parts will be necessary for reassembly after inspection:
GP-122537
Exhaust Manifold to
Combustion Chamber
Gasket
GP-18900
Manifold to Tubesheet
Gasket
GP-18899
Burner Gasket
GP-122551
Burner Release Gasket
GP-161151
Combustion Chamber Liner
To remove the manifold for inspection:
1. Disconnect AC power and turn off the gas supply to the unit.
2. Remove the sheet metal covers from the unit.
3. Disconnect the plastic tubing from the condensate cup to drain and remove the rear covers.
