SETTING GAS PRESSURE
Gas valve is very sensible to outlet pressure adjustment.
Thus, it should be done slowly and only allows for slight
adjustment. Follow those steps to properly adjust the
servo gas valve :
1. With the gas to the unit shut off at the manual gas
valve, remove the outlet pressure tap plug in the
gas valve.
2. Connect the pressure hose from a manometer to
this pressure tap. Turn on the manual gas valve.
3. Make sure the unit is operating at its maximum
capacity and note the pressure. Should be 3.2" w.c.
+/- 0.3 for Natural gas and 8.6" w.c. +/- 0.5 for LP
gas.
4. Insert a small slotted screwdriver into the opening
at the top of the valve. Allow up to 10 seconds for
each change in pressure

5. Turn
clockwise
to
counterclockwise to decrease pressure.
6. Shut off gas to the unit and place the regulator cap
and the manifold pressure tap.
7. Check unit for leaks
