lines for gas devices. See Section 4 below.

￿￿Hazard from incorrect fuels! Possible fire, explo- sion, overheating, and damage. Do not use any fuels except vaporized natural gas and propane. Under no circumstances is liquid fuel of any kind to be introduced in the boiler.

￿￿Hazard from incorrect fuel connections! Possible fire, explosion, overheating, and damage. Do not attempt to connect the propane supply to the natu- ral gas connection, or vice versa.

￿￿Fire and explosion hazards! Close both the natural gas and propane shutoffs before servicing boiler.

￿￿Burn hazard! Possible hot surfaces. Do not touch gas vent during firing operation. Use only factory recommended B-vent components.

￿￿Fire and explosion hazards! Use caution when servicing burner. Propane is heavier than air and may linger in the combustion chamber, vent lines, or elsewhere.

￿￿Gas leak hazard! Make sure all connections to main burner are tight when reassembling the burner. These connections cannot be tested after burner is assembled.

￿￿Gas leak hazard! Test motorized gas valves annu- ally for leakage as described in Section 4.4.6.

￿￿Gas leak hazard! All threaded gas connections must be made using a pipe compound that is resis- tant to propane. Do not use Teflon￿ tape on threaded gas piping.

￿￿Gas leak hazard! Check entire gas train for leaks after installation. If there is a smell of gas, shut down the boiler and obtain immediate assistance from trained service personnel and/or your local fire department.

￿￿Overfire hazard! Possible fire and explosion from excess gas pressure. Make sure that gas inlet pres- sure does not exceed 14 inches W.C. to the regulator on either the natural gas or propane sup- ply line.

￿￿Overfire hazard! Possible fire and explosion. Possible malfunction of regulators and/or motorized gas valves. Maintain all gas train components in

good condition. Do not alter wiring connections. Annual inspection by factory-trained personnel for proper set-up and operation is recommended.

￿￿Overfire and underfire hazards! Possible fire, ex- plosion, overheating, and component failure. Do not attempt to adjust firing rate of the boiler. The firing rate must be adjusted only by factory trained personnel.
