2. Burner flames shall not flash back when the liquid fuel is turned on or off by an automatic control mechanism.

3. Main burner flames shall ignite freely from the pilot when the pilot flame is reduced to a minimum point that will actuate the pilot safety device.

4. When ignition is made in a normal manner, the flame shall not flash outside the appliance.

5. Burners shall not expel liquid fuel through air openings when operating at prevailing pressure.

6. Burners shall have a proper liquid fuel air mixture to insure smooth ignition of the main burner.
