rious water damage. Turn off the water supply and
bleed the pipes.
If the heater is left unattended during the cold weather
season, take the following precautions:
a) Close the main water valve in the house and purge
the pipes if possible. Open all the faucets in the
house;
b) Ask someone to frequently check the house during
the cold weather season to make sure that there is
sufficient heat to prevent the pipes from freezing.
Tell this person to call an emergency number if re-
quired.
2 INSTALLATION
This furnace is a true multi-position unit, in that it will
function in an upflow, downflow or horizontal configura-
tion to the left or the right. Only a few modifications are
required during installation to change from one position
to another. The unit is shipped in the upflow configura-
tion and instructions as to how to change to the other
positions are included in this manual.
The unit is shipped with a burner and its controls. It re-
quires a 115VAC power supply to the control panel and
thermostat hook-up as shown on the wiring diagram, one
or more oil line connections, suitable ductwork and con-
nection to a properly sized vent.

This furnace is not watertight and is not designed for
outdoor installation. It must be installed in such a man-
ner as to protect its electrical components from water.
Outdoor installation will lead to a hazardous electrical
condition and to premature failure of the equipment.
The minimum clearances from combustible material
for each of the positions are specified in Table 9.
If the furnace is installed in a basement or on a dirt floor,
in a crawl space for example, it is recommended to install
the unit on a cement base 2.5 cm to 5.0 cm (1" to 2")
thick.
The unit must be installed in an area where the ambient
and return air temperatures are above 15°C (60°F). In
addition, the furnace should be installed as closely as
possible to the vent, so that the connections are direct
and kept to a minimum. The heater should also be lo-
cated close to the centre of the air distribution system.
2.1.1 Installation in an enclosure
The unit can be installed in an enclosure such as a closet.
However, two ventilation openings are required for com-
bustion air. The openings should be located in front of the
furnace approximately 15 cm (6") above the floor and 15
cm (6") below the ceiling. Figure 1 indicates the minimum
dimensions required and the location of the openings.

KLASB0801DET can be used to ensure these clear-
ances. Refer to Figure 3 and the installation instructions
provided with the base.
In cases where the return air enters through the floor,
the floor return base FRB-101 or KLARB0101DET must
be used.
The burner must always be installed in the same manner,
regardless of the discharge position of the furnace. Refer
to Figure 3 for additional details.
The protection plate (B03789) must be installed on
the plastic cover of the Beckett NX burner to protect
it from vent. ONLY the AMP098 in downflow position
requires the protection plate provided with the unit.
Figure 3 – Downflow Installation
2.2.3 Horizontal Installation
When the furnace is installed in the horizontal position,
either suspended or on a combustible floor with a
choice of right or left discharge, the clearances from
combustible material must be adhered to. If the unit is
installed on a combustible floor, the horizontal floor base
HFB-101 or KLASB0701DET can be used to ensure
these clearances. Refer to the instructions supplied with
the base.
In cases where the return air enters through the floor,
the floor return base FRB-101 or KLARB0101DET can

2.3 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
CAUTION
The exterior of the unit must have an uninterrupted
ground to minimize the risk of bodily harm, if ever an
electrical problem develops. A green ground screw is
supplied with the control box for that purpose.
The appliance must be installed in accordance with the
current ANSI/NFPA 70 National Electrical Code, CSA
C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1 and/or local
codes.
The control system depends on the correct polarity of the
power supply. Connect “HOT” wire (H) and “NEUTRAL”
wire (N) as shown in figures 11 and 12.
A separate line voltage supply should be used, with fused
disconnect switch or circuit breaker, between the main
power panel and the unit.
Only copper wire may be used for the 115V circuit on this
unit. If wires need to be changed, the replacements must
have the same temperature resistance as the originals.
2.4 INSTALLATION OF THE
THERMOSTAT
A thermostat must be installed to control the temperature
of the area to be heated. Follow the instructions supplied
with the thermostat. Also refer to the wiring diagrams
provided with the heating/air conditioning unit. The con-
nections must be made as indicated on the following di-
agrams and the wiring diagrams, Figure 11 and Figure

tioning/heat pump with ECM variable speed motor
Note: On units with 2-stage cooling or heat pump,
terminal Y1 must be used. When Y1 on the electronic
control receives a 24 VAC signal, the airflow is re-
duced by 20%. Do not use termninal Y1 with a single
stage cooling or heat pump.
2.5 INSTALLATION OF THE
BURNER
Refer to the burner manufacturer’s instructions. Also,
the burner must be installed always in the same way
independently of the furnace orientation.
1. Position the mounting gasket between the mount-
ing flange and the burner mounting plate. Align the
holes in the burner mounting plate with the studs
on the mounting flange and bolt securely in place.
2. Remove the burner drawer assembly or the air tube
assembly;
3. Install the nozzle (refer to Technical Specifications
in Table 6);
4. Check the electrode settings;
5. Make the electrical connections;
6. Complete oil line connections.
2.5.1 Nozzles
The burner comes equipped with an appropriate nozzle.
However, if another size or a replacement nozzle is
required, use the manufacturer’s recommended spray
angle and type as shown in Table 6 and based on a
pump pressure of 100 psi.
Always select nozzle sizes by working back from the
desired flow rate at operating pressure and not the
nozzle marking.
2.5.2 Air and Turbulator Settings
Before starting the burner for the first time, adjust the
air and turbulator settings to those listed in this manual
(Table 6). Once the burner becomes operational, final
adjustments will be required. Refer to the section 3 of
this manual.
2.5.3 Post purge delay adjustment
The post purge delay on the oil-fired burners is factory
set to zero second. This delay is applicable for all instal-
lations with chimney venting. For heating units installed
with side wall venting and a burner equipped with this fea-
ture, the post purge delay must be set to 15 seconds. No
delay is required for Riello burners. Refer to the burner
control instruction manual and markings for proper ad-
justment of the post purge delay.
2.6 VENTING
WARNING
POISONOUS CARBON MONOXIDE GAS,FIRE AND EX-
PLOSION HAZARD.
Read and follow all instructions in this section.
Never install a hand operated damper in the vent
pipe. However, any Underwriters Laboratories
listed, electrically operated automatic type vent
damper may be installed if desired. Be sure to
follow the instructions provided with vent damper.
Also, read and follow all instructions in this sec-
tion of the manual.
Failure to properly vent this furnace or other ap-
pliances can result in death, bodily injury and/or
property damage.
To ensure the safe and proper functioning of an oil
furnace, it must always be connected to a flue with suf-
ficient draft or to an approved side-wall venting system.
In addition, it is strongly recommended to perform a
complete inspection of all the existing venting systems.
2.6.1 Masonry chimney
This furnace can be vented into an existing masonry
chimney. However, the unit must not be vented into a
chimney into which a solid fuel burning furnace is already
being vented.
Before venting this furnace into a chimney, its condition
must be checked and repairs made, if necessary. Also,
8

the chimney lining and dimensions must conform to local
and national codes.
2.6.2 Factory-built chimneys
Oil fired furnaces are approved for use with “L” type
vents. The unit may also be used with an approved
chimney of proper dimensions and temperature ratings
as specified in the installation code. Refer to chimney
manufacturer’s instructions for proper installation.
2.6.3 Draft regulator
It is recommended that a draft regulator be installed in
cases where the draft is either high or variable due to
external conditions. Follow the instructions provided with
the regulator.
2.6.4 Side wall venting
The heating unit is approved for side-wall venting.
This system includes model VTK-54 / VTK-098 /
KLAVT0101DET side-wall venter and a 4” insulated vent
pipe, model IFV-410 / IFV098-10 / KLAFV0101DET, IFV-
420 / IFV098-20 / KLAFV0201DET. Refer to the installa-
tion instructions provided with the venting system.
2.7 BLOCKED VENT SHUT-OFF
DEVICE (BVSO) FOR CHIMNEY
VENTING
CAUTION
It is imperative that this device be installed by a quali-
fied service technician.
A positive pressure venting system (Sealed Combus-
tion System or Direct Vent) MUST NOT use the BVSO.
Follow the instructions supplied with the venting sys-
tem.
This device is designed to detect the insuffi-
cient evacuation of combustion gases in the
event of a vent blockage. In such a case the
thermal switch will shut down the oil burner.
The device will then need to be re-armed MANUALLY.
Refer to the detailed instructions and wiring diagrams
supplied with the BVSO for the installation and wiring
procedures. The length of wires supplied with the unit
is such that the safety device must be installed between
the flue outlet of the appliance and the draft regulator, as
indicated in the instructions.
It is also essential that the BVSO be maintained annually.
For more details refer to the instructions supplied with
the device itself, as well as in section 4 of this Manual.
2.7.1 BVSO Functional Test
The purpose of the following test is only to check that the
electrical outlet on the furnace, designated to the BVSO,
is functional only.
1. Start up the burner;
2. Remove the three-pole plug from the BVSO outlet
on the furnace;
3. The burner must shut-off immediately, while the
blower continues to run to the end of the cool-down
cycle.
If the test is not in line with the above, call a QUALIFIED
SERVICE TECHNICIAN.
2.8 COMBUSTION AIR SUPPLY
AND VENTILATION
WARNING
POISONOUS CARBON MONOXIDE GAS HAZARD.
Comply with NFPA 31 (U.S.) and CSA B139
(Canada) standards for the installation of Oil Burn-
ing Equipment and applicable provisions of local
building codes to provide combustion and ventila-
tion air.
Failure to provide adequate combustion and ven-
tilation air can result in death, bodily injury and/or
property damage.
Oil furnaces must have an adequate supply of combus-
tion air. It is common practice to assume that older
homes have sufficient infiltration to accommodate the
combustion air requirement for the furnace. However,
home improvements such as new windows, doors, and
weather stripping have drastically reduced the volume of
air infiltration into the home.
Refer to oil furnace installation codes relative to com-
bustion and ventilation air requirements. Consult Section
2.1.1 in this manual, specifically for units installed in an
enclosed space.
Home air exhausters are common. Bathroom and
kitchen fans, power vented clothes dryers and water
heaters all tend to create a negative pressure condition in
the home. Should this occur the chimney becomes less
and less effective and can easily downdraft. In certain
cases, mechanically supplied air, by way of a blower, in-
terlocked with the unit, is necessary. It is the installer’s
responsibility to check that.
