Oxygen Depletion Sensor Pilot (Figure 20)
When the pilot has a large yellow tip flame, clean the Oxygen
Depletion Sensor as follows:
1. Clean the ODS pilot by loosening nut B from the pilot
tubing. When this procedure is required, grasp nut A with
an open end wrench.
2. Blow air pressure through the holes indicated by the arrows.
This will blow out foreign materials such as dust, lint and
spider webs. Tighten nut B also by grasping nut A.
Warning:
Never use needles, wires, or similar cylindrical objects
to clean the pilot to avoid damaging the calibrated ruby
that controls the gas flow.
