Table 2 Manifold orifi ce sizing
Inspect orifi ces and burners
1. Remove front jacket door. Remove inlet air box top
panel (see Figure 27, item 13, page 56).
2. Check for correctly-sized manifold orifi ces. See
Table 2 for sizing. (The orifi ce size is stamped on
the orifi ce spud barrel.)
Correctly-sized manifold orifices
must be used. Failure to do so will
result in severe personal injury,
death or substantial property dam-

(when required)
1. Remove the screws securing the inlet air box top
panel.
2. Remove inlet air box top panel and inspect the fi ber
gasket. Verify the gasket is in good condition and can
seal around the complete perimeter of the air box.
Replace the gasket if necessary.
3. Using a
7
/
16
” open-end wrench, remove the burner
orifi ces from the manifold.
4. Apply a small amount of pipe dope to each of the
new orifi ces and install in the manifold using a
7

”
open-end wrench. Make sure the orifi ces are aligned
correctly, not cross-threaded in the manifold tap-
pings.
Use only pipe dope compatible with
propane gas, even if boiler is to be
operated on natural gas. Failure to
comply could result in severe per-
sonal injury, death or substantial
property damage.
