Model WML-C is an oil fired forced air
multi-positional furnace, with an output
capacity range of 58,000 BTU/Hr. to
85,600 BTU/Hr. The MPL-B is also an oil
fired forced air multi-positional furnace
with an output capacity range of 85,500
BTU/Hr. to 123,000 BTU/Hr. The WML-
C AND MPL-B furnace may be installed
in the down-flow position, as well as both
left and right horizontal positions.
LOCATION OF UNIT
The furnace should be located such that
the flue connection to the chimney is
short, direct and consists of as few
elbows as possible. When possible, the
unit should be centralized with respect to
the supply and return air ductwork. A
central location minimizes the trunk duct
sizing. All models may be installed on
combustible floors. Do not install the
furnace on carpet or tiled floors.

If the furnace is used in conjunction with
air conditioning, the furnace shall be
installed in parallel with or upstream from
the evaporator coil to avoid condensation
in the heat exchanger. In a parallel
installation, the dampers or air controlling
means must prevent chilled air from
entering the furnace. If the dampers are
manually operated, there must be a
means of control to prevent the operation
of either system unless the dampers are
in the full heat or full cool position. The

If the chimney serves the WML-C
furnace only, the vent should be sized at
5-inch minimum. The MPL-B should be
6-inch minimum. The data provided in
Table 3 is based on dedicated venting. If
the furnace is to be co-vented with other
appliances, refer to NFPA 211, Standard
for Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents, and

When a furnace is installed in the full
basement of a typical frame or brick
house, infiltration is normally adequate to
provide air for combustion and draft
operation. If the furnace is installed in a
closet or utility room, two (2) ventilation
openings must be provided connecting to
a well ventilated space (full basement,
living room or other room opening
thereto, but not a bedroom or bathroom).
One opening shall be located 6" from the
top and bottom of the enclosure at the
front of the furnace. For furnaces located
IMPORTANT: The chimney must be
capable of providing sufficient draft at all
times for the safe removal of the
products of combustion.
The chimney should be tested under
“winter” conditions; doors and windows
closed, all other fossil fuel burning
appliances on, clothes dryer on,
bathroom fans on, etc. If the chimney
cannot overcome the competition for air,
it will be necessary to access the reason
for it, and take corrective action. If the
chimney is found to be sized correctly
and in good repair, it will probably be
necessary to re-evaluate the availability
of combustion and ventilation air, and
take corrective action.

This device is used in conjunction with
conventional chimney venting. This
control (or draft regulator) automatically
maintains a constant negative pressure
in the furnace to obtain maximum
efficiency. It ensures that proper
pressures are not exceeded. If the
chimney does not develop sufficient
draft, the draft control cannot function
properly. The draft regulator, must be
installed within the same room or
enclosure as the furnace, and should not
interfere with the combustion air supplied
to the burner. The control should be
The flue pipe should be as short as
possible with horizontal pipes sloping
upward toward the chimney at a rate of
one-quarter inch to the foot. The flue
pipe should not be smaller in cross
sectional area than the flue collar on the
furnace. The flue pipe should connect to
the chimney such that the flue pipe
extends into, and terminates flush with
the inside surface of the chimney liner.

CHIMNEY VENTING
See Figure 2 and Table 2 for common
chimney problems and their remedies.
The chimney must be sized correctly and
be in good repair. If the chimney is
oversized, there is a high risk of the flue
gases condensing resulting in damage to
the chimney and other venting parts.
This problem may be corrected by the
use of an appropriately sized chimney
liner.

NOTE: The oil burner requires the use of
a bypass plug when converting from
single-pipe to two-pipe oil piping
systems. See burner manufacturer’s
instructions.
Ensure that all fittings used in a copper
oil line system are high quality flare
fittings. Do not use compression fittings.
Do not use Teflon tape on any fittings.
All fuel systems should include an oil
filter between the fuel oil storage tank
and the oil burner. For best results,
install the oil filter as close to the burner
as possible. When using an indoor oil
tank, the oil filter may be installed at the
tank downstream from the shut-off valve.
If firing the furnace under the 0.65 gph
rate, a 7 to 10 micron line filter should be
installed as close to the oil burner as
possible.
Pressurized or gravity feed installations
must not exceed 3 PSIG. Pressures
greater than 10 PSIG may cause
damage to the shaft seal. If the height of
the oil stored in a tank above the oil
burner exceeds 11½ feet, it may be
necessary to use a pressure-regulating
device approved for this purpose.

heat. Blower shutdown is delayed to
remove any residual heat from the heat
exchanger and improve the annual
efficiency of the furnace.
The thermostat should be located
approximately 5 feet above the floor, on
an inside wall where there is good
natural air circulation, and where the
thermostat will be exposed to average
room temperatures. Avoid locations
where the thermostat will be exposed to
cold drafts, heat from nearby lamps and
appliances, exposure to sunlight, heat
from inside wall stacks, etc.
Note: It is advisable not to set the
fan on delay time for a time period
longer than 90 seconds at highest
input. Longer fan on delay times
may result in nuisance limit trips.
CIRCULATING AIR BLOWER
All WML-C AND MPL-B furnace models
are equipped with a direct drive blower
system. Direct drive blower speed
adjustments are not normally required in
properly sized extended plenum duct
systems. The motor RPM and air CFM

accommodate conditions within the usual
range of external static pressures typical
of residential duct systems. Under-sized
Normal heat anticipator setting: 0.1 A.
For more precise adjustment, the heat
anticipator may be adjusted to the
amperage draw of the heating control

"W" terminals of the thermostat. To
reduce the risk of damaging the heat
anticipator, do not measure circuit
without first removing one of the two
wires first. To determine the heating

The electronic fan timer board works in
conjunction with snap disc limit controls,
which perform a safety function, and

smoke test. If not indicating a trace, set
the combustion air controls to provide a
trace.
The burner air supply is adjusted to
maintain the fuel to air ratio to obtain
ideal combustion conditions. A lack of air
causes "soft" and "sooty" flames,
resulting in soot build-up throughout the
heat exchanger passages. Excess
combustion air causes a bright roaring
fire and high stack temperatures
resulting in poor fuel efficiency.
Typically, the CO2 reading will range
from 11.5% to 13.5%.
After the air adjustments have been
completed, and the air shutter or air
adjustment plate has been secured, re-
check the over fire draft and take another
smoke test to ensure that the values
have not changed.
PREPARATIONS:
Drill a ¼” test port in the venting, ideally
at least 2 flue pipe diameters away from
the furnace breeching, if venting
horizontally from the furnace, or from the
flue pipe elbow if venting vertically before
reaching the furnace. (See Figures 4 and
5).
If the venting from the furnace to the
chimney is long, or exposed to cold
ambient temperatures, it may be
necessary to use L-Vent as the vent
connector to reduce stack temperature
loss to prevent condensation. The
venting should be inspected annually to
ensure that it is intact.
The test port will allow flue gas samples
to be taken and stack temperatures to be
measured.
FURNACE INSTALLATION SET-
UP
Before starting the burner, check the
burner alignment with the combustion
chamber (fire pot), check that the correct
nozzle is tightened into place, and that
the burner electrodes are properly
positioned.
The furnace must be set up as the final
step in the installation.
A) The oil burner must be set up
following the procedures outlined above.
B) The WML-C models should operate
within a temperature rise of 45°F to 75°F.
The MPL-B temperature rise range
should be 50°F to 80°F. To determine
the temperature rise, measure the supply
air and return air temperatures when the
furnace has reached steady state
conditions. This is the point at which the
supply air temperature stops increasing
relative to the return air temperature. The
furnace may have to run 10 to 15
minutes to reach steady state conditions.
The measurements may be made with
duct thermometers or thermocouples

The supply air temperature should be
measured at
a
point where the
thermometer will be well within the air
stream near the furnace supply air outlet.
Usually, the side mid-point of the supply
air plenum take-off is ideal, providing it is
out of the line of sight to the heat
exchanger. If the thermometer is within
the line of sight of the heat exchanger,
the supply air readings may be skewed
by radiant heat from the heat exchanger.
If the plenum take-off is unsuitable, the
supply air temperature may be measured
within the first 18 inches of the first
segment of supply air trunk duct.
It would be beneficial to review safety
issues with the home owner, such as the
danger of storing combustibles too close
to the furnace, hanging anything on the
furnace vent pipe, and especially the
dangers of indiscriminately pressing the
burner reset button.
IMPORTANT: Be sure that the home
owner knows where the burner reset
switch is located, and is aware that the
reset switch is not to be activated more
than once without a thorough look for the
cause of the problem, (lack of fuel, etc.).
Be sure that the homeowner knows
when to quit trying to start the furnace
during these conditions and who to call
for emergency service.
A wire brush can be used to loosen dirt
and debris on the inside surfaces of the
radiator. Clean out all accumulated dirt,
soot and debris with a wire handled
brush and an industrial vacuum cleaner.
Replace the clean-out covers.
If the temperature rise is outside the
recommended range, it may be adjusted
on direct drive equipped units by
selecting alternate circulation fan motor
speeds. If the temperature rise is too
high, speed the fan up. If the
temperature rise is too low, slow the fan
down.
Most circulating fan motors are
permanently lubricated by the motor
manufacturer. These motors will have no
oil ports. If the blower motor does
contain oil ports, under normal operating
conditions it will not require oiling for the
first two years. Oil sparingly; a few drops
in each oil port with SAE 20 non-
detergent oil. Oiling is most easily done
with a "tele-spout" oiler. This oiler has a
long flexible plastic spout. DO NOT
OVER-LUBRICATE. Excess oil may
result in premature electric motor failure.

C) Keep in mind that the stack
temperature varies directly with the
temperature rise. The higher the
temperature rise, the higher the stack
temperature will be, resulting in lower
efficiency. The lower the temperature
rise, the lower the stack temperature will
be, which, in some cases, may allow
condensation to form in the chimney and
other vent parts.
Other than remembering to arrange for
the annual professional servicing of the
furnace by the service or installation
contractor, the most important routine
service performed by the homeowner is
to maintain the air filter or filters. A dirty

OPERATION OF OIL BURNER
Once the furnace flue pipe, electrical
and oil line connections have been
made, use the following instructions to
set the burner:
Set the heat anticipator adjustment in
the thermostat (if so equipped), by
removing the "R" or "W" wire to the
thermostat, then reading the amperage
draw between the two wires. Failure to
remove one of the wires from the
thermostat while performing this test
Shut off the electrical power to the
furnace.
Install an oil pressure gauge to the
pressure port on the oil pump. (Refer to
the oil pump specification sheet
included with the burner instructions).

Set the heat anticipator to the
amperage measured.
Restore electrical power to the furnace.
Start the furnace and bleed all air from
the fuel oil lines.
NOTE: THE FURNACE SHOULD BE
RUN THROUGH AT LEAST THREE
FULL CYCLES BEFORE LEAVING
THE INSTALLATION, TO ENSURE
Close the purge valve and fire the unit.
Allow the furnace to warm up to normal
operating temperatures. During this
time, set the pump pressure in
accordance with the data provided in
Appendix A, Table A-2, and A-5.

When the furnace has reached "steady
state" (after approximately 15 minutes).
Set combustion air damper to get a
TRACE of smoke.
Check the system temperature rise.
The temperature rise is the difference
between the return air temperature
measured at a point near the return air
inlet, and the supply air temperature
measured near the furnace outlet. If the
temperature rise is too high, the airflow
must be increased. If the temperature
rise is too low, the fan should be
slowed down.
Turn off the burner. Observing the duct
thermometer in the supply air stream,
note the temperature at which the
blower fan stops. The fan adjustments
can be made by moving the dipswitch
settings on the timer control board for
fan off delay.
To check the operation of the limit
switch, shut off power to the furnace.
Temporarily remove the neutral wire
from the direct drive blower motor.
Restore the electrical power to the
furnace and set the thermostat above
room temperature. After three or four
minutes of burner operation, the limit
control should turn the burner off.
When the limit function test is
complete, shut off electrical power to
the furnace, replace the neutral wire to
the blower fan motor, and then restore
power. The blower fan will start up
immediately. Once the temperature has
dropped and the limit control has reset,
the fan will operate until the fan off time
is achieved. The oil burner will then

R7184 LED DIAGNOSTIC LIGHT
TROUBLESHOOTING
The LED diagnostic light has several
functions. It indicates the state or mode
in which the oil burner is operating. It will
also indicate fault conditions, and help
determine cad cell resistance while the
burner is operating.
IMPORTANT: Due to the potential
hazard of line voltage, only a trained,
experienced service technician should
perform the troubleshooting procedure.
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Troubleshooting is done with the system
powered. Be careful to observe all
necessary precautions to prevent
electrical shock or equipment damage.
PRELIMINARY STEPS:
Check the diagnostic light for indications
of burner condition. Refer to R7184 LED
DIAGNOSTIC LIGHT section for details.
NORMAL CONDITIONS:
PRELIMINARY CHECKS:
The LED diagnostic light will turn on
when the burner enters the carryover
state; the point at which ignition spark is
on, and will remain on through the run
state, where the ignition spark is
terminated but the burner continues to
fire.
Make sure that limit switches are closed
and those contacts are clean.
Check for line voltage power on the oil
primary control black and white lead
wires.
