2 Set boiler in place

For packaged boiler:

1.Remove top jacket panels. Set aside until after boiler is piped.

The boiler contains ceramic fiber and fiberglass materials. Use care when handling these materials per instructions on page 38 of this manual. Failure to comply could result in severe personal injury.

2.Remove lag screws (2 in front, 2 in rear) from shipping rails.

3.Remove boiler from skid. Cables are already attached to block assembly. See Table 2 for lifting weight.

•Using crane — hook middle of each cable to eye of crane.

•Using hoist — hook middle of each cable to hoist. Raise boiler off skid. Use pipe rollers under skid angles to roll boiler.

4.Place boiler in final position. Center boiler on foundation, if used.

5.Level boiler. Shim under skid angles, if necessary.

6.Cut off cables.

Cables are not intended for long-term usage. Cables may corrode inside boiler, weakening their lifting strength. Failure to remove cables can result in severe personal injury, death or substantial property damage.

7. Proceed to "Perform hydrostatic pressure test," page 8.
