but jet solenoid valve can’t open, thus can’t firing.
Maximum designed firing duration is 8s.
ΔNozzle Replacement
Use 14mm outer hexagon socket wrench to disassemble the nozzle, clean the nozzle and nozzle socket
with air gun (air compressor), change a different nozzle and install it.
Nozzle disassemble tool: SFMET944
ΔIgnitor Position Adjustment
Whenever changed the nozzle or ignition is not good, please check ignitor pole position according to
below parameters. The right position for each pair of pole should have a gap from tip to tip of 4± 0.5mm
and a gap between two ignitor of 13± 1mm. Check the ignition success rate after adjustment by firing.

Note: Do unplug the power cable when service flamer.
ΔMaintenance
1. To maintain the system in good performance and running status, it is recommended to running the
device at least once per month.
2. Maintenance of the nozzle: Nozzle needs to be cleaned from time to time, and it is recommended that
once every six months (depending on the environment and frequency of use). In the process of using
the equipment, if the flame shape is seriously deformed or the fuel injection line is significantly
deformed or coarsened, the nozzle should be removed immediately for cleaning. If after clean, there
are still problems please replace new nozzle.
3. Maintenance of the O-ring: If it is found that the O-ring of the nozzle is damaged or ageing when
cleaning the nozzle, the O-ring should be replaced in time (material and size of O-ring: fluororubber O-
ring, the outermost diameter is 14 mm, and the line diameter is 2 mm).
