To clean these parts we recommend usingcompressed air no greater than 30 PSI. Your localcomputer store, hardware store, or home centermay carry compressed air in a can. You can use avacuum cleaner in the blow position. If using com-pressed air in a can, please follow the directions onthe can. If you don't follow directions on the can,you could damage the pilot assembly.1. Shut off the unit, including the pilot. Allowthe unit to cool for at least thirty minutes.2. Inspect burner, pilot, and primary air inletholes on injector holder for dust and dirt (seeFigure 32).3. Blow air through the ports/slots and holes inthe burner.4. Check the injector holder located at the endof the burner tube again. Remove any largeparticles of dust, dirt, lint, or pet hair with asoft cloth or vacuum cleaner nozzle.5.
