jumper wire with both ends stripped.
1. Disconnect cad cell leads from F-F terminals.
2. Set the thermostat to call for heat and reset the safety switch.
Burner should start.
3. Within the safety switch timing period, use insulated wire to
jumper F-F terminals. Burner should continue to run.
4. After the safety switch timing period elapses, remove the
jumper. Burner should shut down.
