User Manual
A  wrench-type  shut-off  valve  should  be  installed 
in  the  gas  line  within  sight  of,  and  convenient  to, 
the  451.  Provide  a  ground  joint  union  upstream  of 
the  combination  regular  shut-off,  and  preferably 
outside the unit.
Install  a drip  leg trap  in  the gas  supply  riser  lead
ing  to  the  unit.  After  gas  pipe  connections  have 
been  made,  purge  the  lines  and  check  for  leakage. 
Use  a  soap  and  water  solution  or  other  such mater
ial.
Never  use  matches,  candles,  flame  or  other  source 
of ignition to check leakage.
PILOT
Light the pilot using the  procedure outlined on the 
Lighting  Instruction  Plate  attached  to  generator. 
The  pilot  flame  should  be  soft  blue  in  color.  The 
flame  should  be  of  sufficient  length  to  provide  good 
impingment on  the  unimetal element  of  the Bryant 
pilot.  Flame  should  extend  upward  between  the 
carry-over ports of the two adjacent burners.
If  the  pilot  flame  does  not  have  the  appearance 
described  above,  it  may  be  adjusted  by  means  of 
the  manual  pilot  shut-off  valve  which  is  equipped 
with  an  adjustable  screw.  Turn  the  handle  to  the 
full-open  position and  remove  the screw  cap  on  the 
valve  handle,  thus  exposing  the  adjustable  screw. 
Turn  adjusting  screw  until  flame  has  the  desired 
appearance. Replace screw cap.
V.  CHARGING THE SYSTEM WITH WATER
Caution:  Do  not  run  the  pump  dry.  Freezing  condL 
tions  will  not  damage  the  pump;  however,  do  not 
attempt  to  operate  the  pump  when  chiller  or  chilled 
water lines are frozen.
1.  Turn off main manual gas shut-off valve.
2.  Remove the filler cap from water chiller tank.
3.  Disconnect  line  at  chiller  inlet.  (When  install
ing  the  chilled  water  lines,  it  is  advisable  to  leave 
this connection open until lines have been flushed).
4.  Fill  the  tank  with  tap  water  by  inserting  a 
garden  hose  into  the  filler  tube  about  12  inches 
and  running  water  into  the  chiller  until  it  gushes 
out around the hose. See Figure 4.
5.  Start  pump.  Allow  pump  to  operate  until  all 
foreign  matter  has  been  flushed  from  the  pipes. 
Continue  to  supply  water  to  the  tank  during  this 
cleaning period.
Note:  If  water  does  not  circulate  when  the  pump 
is started,  air  may  be  trapped  in the  pump.  Bleed 
the  air  from  pump  through  the  1/8"  slotted  head 
bleed  valve  located  on  top  of  the pump  discharge. 
Open  valve  with  screw  driver.  Close  valve  when 
the trapped air is removed and water appears.
6.  Turn  off  pump  and  hose.  Make  pipe  connection 
to chiller inlet.
7.  Turn  on  hose  and  fill  tank  until water  gushes 
out  around  hose.  Remove  hose  and  replace  filler 
cap.
8.  Start pump and while water is circulating, check 
for leaks throughout the chilled water system.
9.  Stop pump and remove filler cap. Insert one end 
of  a piece  of water  hose into  the tank  at  least 12". 
Insert a clean  plastic or metal funnel in  the other 
end of the hose.
10.  Start pump and pour carton of borax into funnel. 
Flush  borax  into  chiller  with  water  from  water 
hose  used  for  filling  until  tank  over-flows.  Remove 
hose  and  replace  filler  cap.  The  package  of  borax 
supplied  is  sufficient  for  chilled  water  systems 
containing  up  to  20  gallons  of  water.  For  systems
