finger is applied midway between the blower and
motor pulleys.

Each furnace is shipped with a washable permanent
filter. Check every 30 to 60 days. See label on blower
for cleaning method. It is not necessary to spray filter
with oil.
Cleaning Heat Exchanger
If it becomes necessary to clean heat exchanger—
because of carbon deposits, soot, etc.—shut off gas
and electricity. Remove burners and manifold assem­
bly. Remove vent connector and draft diverter.
Remove flue baffles from upper heating element flue
outlets by removing two screws that secure Raffles in
place. Clean flueways with brush and/or vacuum.
Replace flue baffles and tighten screws carefully.

Pilot should be checked and cleaned if necessary at
the beginning of each heating season. Pilot flame
should be high enough for proper impingement of the
safety element and to light the burners. Remove ac­

safety element, if used.
It is recommended the pilot be turned off during the
summer season.
