1.5.3 Main Burner System
For the burners to work the gas supply valve must be open and the main power switch must be on.
The main burner receives gas from the main gas supply through the thermostatically controlled valve.
When the thermostat is turned up the gas control valve opens. If you have a pilot light system, the
pilot will ignite the burners. The electronic ignition system will create a spark to ignite the gas. After
the burner system is operating, perform the burner adjustments in the following procedure. Figure
1-2 illustrates the different conditions possible for the main burner.
