Operation

Fig. 15

NOTE: Stirring the starting gel into the pellets usually allows the fire to become established quicker.

CAUTION: A vapor flash could occur if too much time is allowed to pass before lighting the starting gel.

CAUTION: Care must be taken not to get starting gel on your hands or clothing. Serious burns could occur during the lighting process.

CAUTION: Never try to apply more starting gel to an already burning fire, or a fire with smoldering pellets.

“NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID, OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR “FRESHEN UP “ A FIRE IN THIS BOILER. KEEP ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL AWAY FROM THE UNIT WHILE IN USE”.

The fire will light and the control will adjust the rate of burn to the proper level, according to the MAX TEMP dial setting.

NOTICE: When burning the boiler in the manual ignition mode, there must be an overheat dump zone incorporated into the plumbing system.

If heating demand stops during manual operation, the control will take the unit to low burn. If no heat is used during this time, the water temperature may continue to rise to the point at which the feeder will be turned off and the fire will go out. This will require a manual re-start of the system. (see page 26 “7 Blinks”)

Solid-fuel burning appliances need to be cleaned frequently because soot, creosote, and ash may accumulate. If you suspect a chimney/vent pipe fire do the following:

1.Call the fire department.

2.Remove fuel from the burn pot using the burnpot scraping tool to scrape the pellets into the ash pan.

3.Remove the ash pan from the unit and take outside. Do not place the ash pan on a combustible material.

4.Turn off circuit breaker at unit.

5.Do not use the unit until a qualified person has inspected your appliance and venting.
