Some motors have prelubricated sealed bearings and require no
lubrication. These motors can be identified by the absence of oil
ports on each end of the motor. For those motors with oil ports,
lubricate motor every 5 years if motor is used on intermittent
operation (thermostat FAN switch in AUTO position), or every 2
years if motor is in continuous operation (thermostat FAN switch
in ON position).
12. Lubricate motor (when oil ports are provided).
a. Remove dust caps or plugs from oil ports located at each
end of motor.
b. Use a good grade of SAE 20 nondetergent motor oil and
put 1 teaspoon, 5 cc, 3/16 oz, or 16 to 25 drops in each
oil port. Do not over-oil.
Remember to disconnect the electrical supply before removing
access doors.

WARNING: Never use a match or other open flame to
check for gas leaks. Use a soap-and-water solution. A
failure to follow this warning could result in fire, personal
injury, or death.
Fig. 7—Position of Pilot to Burner
E. Pilot
Check the pilot and clean if necessary at the beginning of each
heating season. The pilot flame should be high enough for proper
impingement of the flame sensing element (or thermocouple) and
to light the burners. Remove the accumulation of soot and carbon
from the flame sensing element (or thermocouple). Refer to Fig. 7
for proper location of pilot on burner assembly.
17. Check for gas leaks.
18. Replace control access door.
D. Electrical Controls and Wiring
NOTE: There may be more than 1 electrical supply to unit.
The electrical ground for 115-v wiring must be maintained
properly. Refer to Fig. 8 for field wiring information and to Fig. 9
for unit wiring information.
F. Troubleshooting
With power disconnected to unit, check all electrical connections
for tightness. Tighten all screws on electrical connections. If any
smoky or burned connections are noticed, disassemble the connec-
tion, clean all parts and stripped wire, and reassemble properly and
securely. Electrical controls are difficult to check without proper
instrumentation; therefore, reconnect electrical power to unit and
observe unit through 1 complete operating cycle.
The 24-v circuit contains an automotive-type, 3-amp fuse located
on the main control board. Any direct shorts during installation,
service, or maintenance could cause this fuse to blow. If fuse
replacement is required, use ONLY a 3-amp fuse of identical size.
Page 8 contains a troubleshooting chart. This chart can be a useful
tool in isolating furnace operation problems. Beginning with the
word "Start," answer each question and follow the appropriate
arrow to the next item.
The chart will help identify the problem or failed component. After
replacing any component, verify correct operating sequence as
indicated by bold arrows.
