Instructions for checking valve shutoff:
1) Locate the 1/8” NPT pressure tap on the combination valve (FIGURE 5).
2) With the manual valve turned off to prevent flow to the gas valve, connect a
manometer to the 1/8” outlet pressure tap in the valve.
NOTE: A manometer (fluid-
filled gauge) is recommended.
3) Turn the manual valve to the ON position and the heater OFF. Use your finger to
fully block the main burner orifice for several seconds. Observe the manometer
with the orifice blocked. If any pressure is indicated, the gas valve is leaking.
A leaking gas valve must be replaced before the heater is put back in
operation.

Function: The gas valve controls modulation and
the gas pressure switch monitors gas pressure to
control operation of the two-speed venter.
Service: The modulation gas valve and switches
have no field maintenance requirements except
careful removal of external dirt accumulation and
checking of wiring connections.
Use only factory-authorized parts.
Location: See FIGURE 1A, page 5, for location.
CAUTION: DO NOT
bottom out the gas
valve regulator
adjusting screw.
This can result in
unregulated manifold
pressure causing
excess overfire and
heat exchanger
failure.
Modulating Gas Valve -
Options AG58, D12G
The gas train has a ball valve with an actuator (see
FIGURE 6) to control gas flow. The
ball valve and actuator are located downstream of the combination single-stage valve
as shown in
FIGURE 4.
Carefully clean external dirt accumulation from the actuator.

Valve (Ball Valve and

Inspect the position of the ball valve shaft.
•
In the fully open position, the dash marks on the top of the shaft should be aligned
with the gas piping.
•
In the fully closed position, the dash marks on the top of the shaft should be
aligned at a 90° angle across the gas piping.
If the ball valve shaft is not properly aligned or if the manifold pressure does not match
the settings in the chart started below, the ball valve will need to be adjusted.
