- Regulation by these authorities may require requirements and instructions to those provided in this installation manual.
These instructions cover only the replacement of a failed pump or the upgrade of an existing pump.
For instructions on how to install a new appliance, fuel tank, or burner see the applicable installation manuals.
WARNING
Oil Leak & Fire Hazard
Not adhering to the following may result in the failure of the valve seals and cause the pump to leak oil.
- Never exceed 3 psig on the Pump Inlet or Return Ports. (see NFPA 31-25, 8.6.3).
- Approved fuels – USA: ASTM D396 for #1 or #2 heating oil, ASTM page 4 of these instructions. For additional fuels information, please refer to form # 664860 or visit www.beckettcorp.com/fuels
- Never place any fuel line restriction that may increase the pressure at the Pump Return Port.
- If a vacuum safety valve is used on the inlet line it must be equipped with an accumulator and pressure relief to the tank. Dangerous thermal expansion of oil trapped by an inlet line check valve can create extreme pressures that damage fuel unit seals, line fittings, inlet filters, gauges and other components.
- Do not use Teflon tape or compression fittings.
Disassembly
-
Disconnect the power to the burner and the oil supply system. Note the burner air settings.
-
Make sure the coil voltage on the pump matches the replacement part.
-
Unplug the cord set from the coil.
-
Remove all fuel lines : Supply line, output to the nozzle, and return line if used.
-
Remove the mounting screws. Most are 3/8” hex head.
-
Remove the existing pump and properly dispose (See figure 1).

Reassembly
Fuel lines are assumed to be flare fittings or NPT pipe fittings. If in good condition, reconnect fuel lines using the existing fittings and pipes. Use pipe sealant on appropriate fittings. Use of pipe thread sealant compatible with both fuel oil and biodiesel fuel is required.
-
Install the coupling to the motor shaft. Apply a light coat of grease to the pump end of the coupling.
-
Align with the mounting holes and mount the pump using the bolts removed from the burner. See Figure 5 for appropriate pump mounting orientation, in reference to the horizontal plane.
-
To install a CleanCut fuel unit on a housing that has two top shutter mounting holes, make sure the screw is installed in the hole on the left that is closest to the front of the burner (air tube side).
-
When upgrading to a CleanCut, on a housing that has only one air shutter locking screw, please see installation tips section and Figure 6 for guidance of removal of the lower tab, and use the bottom screw for locking the shutter.
-
Optional Cord Set Installation:
a). Route the new cord set through the in the housing where the previous cord was located.
b). Attach the violet and white wires of the cord set to the terminal location previously used on the control.
c). Re-attach the control to the 4×4 junction box taking care not to pinch the wires in the 4×4.
d). Close the igniter taking care not to pinch any wires.
e). Connect the new cordset to the pump.
Installation Tips
-
If upgrading to a CleanCut pump and the shutter screw interferes with the solenoid on the pump, see Figure 6 and follow these steps:
a). Remove existing pump and solenoid valves, if applicable, and appropriately dispose of them.
b). Note the air setting of the shutter, then remove the air shutter, set the shutter aside to be reinstalled later.
c). Remove the shutter tab by using a pair of side cutter pliers and file c). Remove the shutter tab by using a pair of side cutter pliers and file to be locked securely.
d). Install the air shutter using the screw located below the pump. Adjust the shutter to the original air setting and tighten screw securely. Check combustion performance with test instruments. See appliance manual or burner manual for guidance. -
On older burners, do not install the top shutter screw, it will interfere with the solenoid on the fuel unit.
-
To install a CleanCut fuel unit on a housing that has two top shutter mounting screw holes, make sure the screw is installed in the hole on the left that is closest to the front of the burner (air tube side).
-
Other Mounting Installations: The CleanCut Pump with a standard cord set or a PD Timer can be installed on the Carlin EZ-1, Wayne ’M’, Wayne ’E’, Wayne ’HS’, Ducane ’DM’, Aero, and other 3450 RPM burners.
-
Ducane ’DR’: 5/16” diameter hole will have to be drilled into the housing through the wire cavity.
-
Weil-McLain ’QB’: The valve coil blocks the air shutter screw. Allow enough slack in the cordset in order to pivot the valve coil away from the housing.
Bleeding The Pump
- Open all fuel valves and check for line leaks. Tighten fittings and/or re-flare as needed to stop leaks. DO NOT use compression fittings.
- One-pipe system requires a manual bleeding process. Two-pipe systems “bleed” automatically – but the bleeding process can be accelerated with a manual process.
- Note: All fuel lines must be air tight with no leaks or burner performance will be impacted. Leaks can cause loss of prime, poor combustion, and rumbles / pulsations may occur.
- For accelerated bleeding oil systems:
a). Place a hose on the bleed port, and position a catch-can underneath.
b). Open the 3/8” hex head on the port and turn counter clock-wise (CCW) 1/2 to 1 full turn, to allow oil flow into the catch-can.
c). Apply power to the burner. The oil will begin flowing into the catch- can when the burner starts.
d). Allow the oil to flow for 15 seconds in the can until there is no foam or air bubbles are present. If signs of air remain, make sure all air is purged from the oil filter cartridge. e). Tighten the 3/8” hex bleed port clock-wise (CW). Re-check the system for leaks.
Adjusting The Pump Pressure
-
Install a pressure gauge, dead heading the nozzle port.
-
Set the pump pressure to the required settings, which are located in the appliance manufactures instructions. If unavailable, consult the Beckett Spec Guide at www.beckettcorp.com. The new pump is factory set at 100 psi, unless noted otherwise.
-
Turn the adjustment screw CW with a slotted screw driver or 5/32” allen wrench to increase the pump pressure. See Figure 3 (Item c) page 2 and Figure 4 (Item e) page 3.
-
Cycle the burner and confirm the following:
a). The pump output pressure is maintained at a level where it was set to in step 1 above, when the pump’s coil is energized.
b). The pump pressure decreases when the burner control removes power from the pump’s valve coil. With the nozzle port dead-headed, the pressure will only drop to approximately 20% of the operating pressure.
c). Remove power from the burner.
d). Remove the Pressure Gauge. Connect the copper line to the nozzle port of the pump and tighten with a 7/16” hex wrench. -
Turn power on to the burner and check all fuel line and fittings for leaks.
-
Check burner combustion performance with proper test equipment.
See burner operating manual for testing guidelines.
