BURNER AIR SHUTTER
ADJUSTMENT
The efficiency of the burner depends on a delicate
balance between the air supply and volume of gas.
Whenever this balance is disturbed, poor operating
characteristics and excessive gas consumption may
occur. An air shutter on the front of the burner controls
the gas mixer balance. A yellow streaming flame on
the burner is an indication of insufficient primary air.

decrease and counterclockwise to increase pilot

5. Pilot flame is in adjustment when it is
approximately ½" tall and flame surrounds one
third of the thermocouple down from the tip of the
hot junction end.
To correct this condition, loosen the shutter screw and
rotate the air shutter open until the flame begins to lift
from the burner, then close the shutter slightly and
tighten the shutter screw. A proper flame should be
blue in color, well-defined and seated on the burner
port. A white-blue flame is a result of excessive
primary air.

NOTE: Calibration on this "modulating thermostat"
version is made using the knob for temperature
adjustments and not the inner screw as on previous
versions.
Operation
The "snap action" thermostat-combo valve is self-
regulating and the thermostat is internally connected
to the valve. When thermostat dial is set to 350°F and
the oven is below setpoint, the valve opens to allow
gas flow and burner lights. As the oven temperature
rises, the pressure from the sensor bulb in the oven
increases. Fluid in the capillary tube expands with the
temperature increase and presses against a
diaphragm in the thermostat. When the oven
temperature reaches setpoint, the internal valve
closes to stop gas flow to burner.
1. Place a thermocouple type temperature probe
(type K preferred) in center of oven to verify
actual temperatures throughout adjustment.
2. Turn thermostat knob to 350°F. Wait 15 minutes
for oven to heat up.
3. Turn knob to the lowest setting and check the by-
pass flame for proper adjustment as outlined
4. Turn knob back to 350°F and wait for
temperature to stabilize (approximately 30
minutes). When the temperature stabilizes take
a temperature reading. If actual temperature is
more than 15°F from knob setting, calibrate as
follows:
When the oven temperature decreases below
setpoint, the pressure is reduced in the capillary which
reduces the force on the diaphragm allowing the valve
to open again.
Adjustment
1. Place a thermocouple temperature probe (type K
preferred) in center of oven to verify actual
temperatures throughout adjustment.
5. Pull off thermostat knob.
6. Loosen two screws on the back of knob.
2. Turn power switch on.
3. Turn thermostat knob to 350°F and allow oven to
cycle 3 complete times. If the customer has a
preferred temperature setting that they always
operate the oven at such as 325°, 375° or 400°,
you may calibrate to that temperature instead.
4. Take a temperature reading. If actual
temperature is more than 20° from knob setting,

Operation
The "snap action thermostat-combo" valve is self-
regulating and the thermostat is internally connected
to the valve. When thermostat dial is set to 350°F and
the griddle is below setpoint, the valve opens to allow
gas flow and burner lights. As the griddle temperature
rises, the pressure from the sensor bulb secured to
the bottom of the griddle plate increases. Fluid in the
capillary tube expands with the temperature increase
and presses against a diaphragm in the thermostat.
When the griddle temperature reaches setpoint, the
internal valve closes to stop gas flow to burner.
2. Turn thermostat knob to 350°F and allow griddle
to cycle 3 complete times. If the customer has a
preferred temperature setting that they always
operate the oven at such as 325°, 375° or 400°,
you may calibrate to that temperature instead.
3. Take a temperature reading. If actual
temperature is more than 20° from knob setting,
calibrate as follows:
A. Pull off knob. Do not rotate knob during
removal.
When the griddle temperature decreases below
setpoint, the pressure is reduced in the capillary which
reduces the force on the diaphragm allowing the valve
to open again.
Do not turn the adjustment screw more

THERMOCOUPLE TEST
Operation
Thermocouple Test
The thermocouple supplies a DC millivolt signal (MV)
to the gas safety valve when heated by the pilot flame.
The gas safety valve will shut off gas flow to the pilot
and main burner in case of a pilot outage. When
energized by the thermocouple voltage, the gas safety
valve is held open to permit gas flow to the pilot and
provide gas for the burner when the oven thermostat
calls for heat. The pilot flame height is controlled by
an adjustable needle valve located under a small
cover screw on the gas safety valve.
Check the thermocouple output voltage (DC millivolts)
with a VOM as outlined in the steps below.

•
If thermocouple adaptor (see TOOLS) is
available, check closed circuit voltage as outlined
in the test procedure.
If thermocouple adaptor is not available, check
open circuit voltage as outlined in the test
procedure.
