: : Can someone tell me what
: cut-in the burner,
: cut out the burner
: main is the big pipe that distributes steam to the radiator pipes
: ,and differential is the different pressure between when the the burner cuts in and cuts out above or below the pressure setting on the dial.

: means?

: Does any of these mean the same when I set it on the pressuretrol?

: When in school the blur of words seems all the same until you learn that they look different with different letters to mean something different.

Just to make sure, for example :on the pressuretrol the setting for MAIN is 1.5, setting for DIFF is 1. Does that mean the cut-in is .5(1.5 minus 1) and cut-off is 1.5?Thank you so much for answering my questions.
