CAUTION
Avoid operating this boiler in an environment
where saw dust, loose insulation bers, dry wall
dust, etc. are present. If boiler is operated under
these conditions, the burner interior and ports
must be cleaned and inspected daily to insure
proper operation.
a. Loosen lock screw.
b. Close air adjustment until yellow tips appear on
ames.
c. Slowly open air adjustment until clearly dened
inner cones are visible.
d. Tighten lock screw.
4. Adjust thermostat to normal setting.
J. Check thermostat or operating control operation.
Raise and lower temperature setting to start and stop
boiler operation.
K. Check ignition system shut-off.
1. Standing Pilot (24V): Disconnect thermocouple
lead at Gas Valve. Gas Valve must close and pilot
and main burners extinguish. If not, replace the gas
valve.
2. Honeywell EI: Disconnect ignitor/sensor cable from
ignition module. Gas valve must close and pilot and
main burners extinguish. If not, measure voltage
across gas valve terminals “TH” and “TR”.
a. If voltage is not present, replace gas valve.
b. If voltage is present, replace ignition module.
3. EP and OP: Refer to instructions supplied with the
Honeywell RM7890 Burner Control.
L. Check Limit(s).
1. Adjust thermostat to highest setting.
2. Observe temperature gauge. When temperature
exceeds limit set point main burners should
extinguish.
3. Adjust limit to setting above observed reading. Main
burners should reignite.
4. Adjust thermostat to lowest setting. Adjust limit to
desired setting.
M. Adjust gas input rate to boiler. Natural Gas.
1. Adjust thermostat to highest setting.
2. Check manifold gas pressure. Manifold pressure
is listed on rating label. Adjust gas valve pressure
regulator as necessary (turn adjustment screw
counterclockwise to decrease manifold pressure, or
clockwise to increase manifold pressure). If pressure
can not be attained, check gas valve inlet pressure.
If less than minimum gas supply pressure listed on
rating label, contact gas supplier for assistance.
3. Clock gas meter for at least 30 seconds. Use Table
12 to determine gas ow rate in Cubic Feet per
Hour.

Table 12: Input Rate
4. Determine Input Rate. Multiply gas ow rate by gas
heating value.
Warning
Failure to properly adjust gas input rate will result
in over ring or under ring of the appliance.
Improper and unsafe boiler operation may result.
5. Compare measured input rate to input rate stated on
rating label.
a. Boiler must not be overred. Reduce input rate
by decreasing manifold pressure. Do not reduce
more than 0.3 inch w.c. If boiler is still overred,
contact your Burnham distributor or Regional
Ofce for replacement Gas Orices.
