2. BOILER PLACEMENT AND ASSEMBLY

A.SETTING THE BOILER

1.Provide a level foundation, located as close as possible to the center of the heating system.

2.Refer to Figures 2.1 and 2.2 for exploded view of boiler while checking and/or assembling parts of the boiler.

3.On packaged boilers, open burner mounting plate (item 5) at this time to make certain the target wall

(item 2) is seated in the back of the combustion chamber. (WBV-04/WV-05) Ceramic fiber blanket base liner (item 3) should be lying flat on bottom of combustion chamber between target wall and burner mounting plate. Close burner mounting plate.

4.See clearance information in Section I, "Preinstallation."

B.CONNECTING THE FLUE OUTLET

The WBV-03 and WBV-04 boiler models may be installed as a rear flue outlet unit or a top flue outlet unit. Packaged WBV-03 and WBV-04 boiler models are shipped as rear flue outlet and may be converted. The WV-05 boiler model is only available as a top flue outlet unit. On Knockdown boilers, the flue outlet components are located in the water trim or steam trim carton.

1.If converting to a top flue application on a packaged boiler, remove the large knockout in the jacket top panel.

2.On Knockdown boilers, install the flue collector coverplate and blanket seal (items 10 and 11) on top of the block assembly using four (4) 5/16" x 1-1/2" studs, nuts and washers provided.

3.Mount the flue collar adapter and rope seal (items 14 and 12) to either the rear boiler section for a rear flue application, or to the flue collector cover plate (item 11) for a top flue application. Use 5/16" hex head bolts for rear flue outlet, and sheet metal screws for top flue outlet.

4.Attach the rear outlet cover plate (item 13) to the remaining unused opening using four (4) 5/16" bolts and washers provided.

C.JACKET ASSEMBLY (KNOCKDOWN BOILERS)

1.If the boiler is to be installed with a rear flue outlet, remove the square knock-out in the back panel.

2.Attach back panel to bosses on middle of back section with two 1/4" x 3/8" machine screws provided. The back panel has two 5/16" diameter holes close to the center of the panel.

3.Attach both the left and right side panels to the back panel and secure with sheet metal screws.

4.Remove the burner mounting plate (item 5) and make certain the target wall (item 2) is in correct position in back of chamber. Ceramic fiber blanket liner (item 3, WBV-04 and WV-05) should be on floor of boiler in front of target wall.

5.Remove the two (2) knockouts in the front jacket panel which will allow clearance for the hinge. Place the front jacket panel on the block and attach the left and right side panels in the same manner as they are attached to the back panel.
