You should see the green LED flashing at a 1/2 second interval. Open the bleed screw then press the reset button (just below the LED) for 30 seconds. This resets the lockout and fires the burner. Close the bleed screw when air is no longer coming out.

After the third reset it would no longer reset. I read in the manual there is a restricted lockout. Where is this reset? I can resume the bleeding process and I’m home free, hopefully.
Very happy with the burner, safe, quiet, clean an economical to operate.

I don’t see a reply to this comment and it sounds similar to my problem. I had identified my pump as being bad so I ordered and installed the new one tonight. I’m tried about 6 times to prime the pump and it won’t bleed at all. I have the two pipe system with the return and I was told I really didn’t need to even do that. However, I wanted to see oil coming through just to ensure it’s working but no luck. I have oil in tank, valve on, fittings tight. Thanks, Eric

I’ve had to get a hand pump to suck oil through the return lne. Is there an easier way?

Hello, Natalie.
Try this out.
First you need to push the reset button 1~2 times and then slowly open the bleeder about a half turn, so that the fuel can go flowing. Make sure you locate a glass container underneath it, and you need to watch it until it makes a smooth and gentle stream of fuel flowing. If you see that, then start to tighten the bleeder nut and ignite the furnace. At first the stream of oil will look dark colored, but don’t be panic as it is just a result of diesel and residual oil mix inside the tank.

Thank you! After 3 years in this, and spending over $ 400 on getting this burner to fire again (ran out of oil twice) I am wondering why I never checked the Internet. Simple, and straightforward. Thank you, again.
