ForYour Safety

Follow instructions below to prevent severe personal injury, death or substan- tial property damage:

●Do not use crankcase drainings or any oil containing gasoline. See burner manual for proper fuel oil.

●Do not attempt to start burner when excess oil has accumulated in combustion chamber, when unit is full of vapor, or when combus tion chamber is very hot.

●Do not start burner unless collector hood, flue cap, jacket cap, breeching and burner mount- ing door are secured in place.

●Never burn garbage or paper in the boiler.

●Never leave combustible material around boiler.

●DO NOT TAMPER WITH UNIT OR CONTROLS. Always follow specific instructions when starting up boiler or performing routine maintenance or service.

Follow instructions below to prevent severe personal injury, death or substan- tial property damage:

●To avoid electric shock, turn off electrical supply at switch on boiler and additional external switches before performing service.

●To avoid severe burns, allow boiler to cool before performing service.

●Do not block flow of combustion or ventilation air to boiler.

●Boiler must be connected to a flue with sufficient draft at all times to assure proper operation.

●Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water. Electrical and mechanical failures may cause electric shock and fire risks. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect chimney or vent, boiler and burner. Have the boiler flueways cleaned and have the following replaced:

—all electrical and mechanical controls

—electrical wiring

—oil burner and controls

—insulation and chamber lining

Tips for steam systems:

●Check boiler and system piping for leaks. Continual makeup water will reduce boiler life. Minerals can build up in sections, reducing heat transfer and causing cast iron to overheat, resulting in section failure.

Failure to maintain recom- mended pH and to repair leaks can cause section iron corrosion, leading to section failure and leaks. Do not use petroleum- based sealing or stop-leak compounds in boiler systems. Damage to system components can result.

●Boiler water pH 7.0 to 8.5 is recommended. For pH conditions outside 7.0 to 8.5 range or unusually hard water areas (above 7 grains hardness), consult local water treatment company.

●Do not add cold water to hot boiler. Thermal shock can cause sections to crack.

●Clean newly installed steam boiler to remove oil, grease, and other foreign material. Failure to properly clean can result in violent water level fluctuations, water passing into steam mains, or high maintenance costs on strainers, traps and and vents. A qualified service techni- cian should skim the boiler by following instructions on page 10 of this manual.
