(1) The control box 12)(Fig. 5)page 8 is fitted with a disc which rotates during the firing programme, which can be seen through the transparent lock-out reset button. When
the burner does not fire or comes to halt following a fault, the symbol which appears behind the reset button indicates the type of problem.
(2) The fuse is located in the rear part of the control box 12)(Fig. 5)page 8. A pull-out fuse is also available as a spare part which can be fitted after breaking the tag on the
panel which holds it in place.
