Clean vent termination & air intake screens

1.Remove all lint and debris from both the boiler air intake screen and the flue discharge screen.

2.The boiler control module will sense blockage of the air intake or flue and lockout if the blockage is excessive. It will signal the failure by flashing the appropriate indicator lights on the control board.

3.If removing the debris does not allow the boiler to operate correctly afterwards, contact your qualifed

service technician to inspect the boiler and vent/ air systems.

Test low water cutoff (if installed)

1.If the system is equipped with a low water cutoff, test the low water cutoff periodically during the heating season, following the low water cutoff manufacturer’s instructions.

Service every 6 months . . . . . . . . .

Operate boiler relief valve

1.Before proceeding, verify that the relief valve out- let has been piped to a safe place of discharge, avoid- ing any possibility of scalding from hot water.

To avoid water damage or scalding due to valve operation, a metal dis- charge line must be connected to relief valve outlet and run to a safe place of disposal. This discharge line must be installed by a qualifed heating installer or service techni- cian in accordance with the instruc- tions in the Boiler manual. The discharge line must be terminated so as to eliminate possibility of se- vere burns should the valve dis- charge.

2.Read the boiler pressure/temperature gauge to make sure the system is pressurized.

3.Lift the relief valve top lever slightly, allowing wa- ter to relieve through the valve and discharge pip- ing.

4.If water flows freely, release the lever and allow the valve to seat. Watch the end of the relief valve dis-

charge pipe to ensure that the valve does not weep after the line has had time to drain. If the valve weeps, lift the seat again to attempt to clean the valve seat. If the valve continues to weep afterwards, con- tact your qualified service technician to inspect the valve and system.

5.If water does not flow from the valve when you lift the lever completely, the valve or discharge line may be blocked. Immediately shutdown the boiler, fol- lowing the instructions on the inside jacket top Lighting Instructions. Call your qualified service technician to inspect the boiler and system.

Oil inducer motor

1.Use only S.A.E. 20 motor oil. DO NOT use house- hold universal oils.

Use only S.A.E. 20 motor oil to lu- bricate the inducer motor. Do not use common universal household oils.

2.Place a few drops of oil in each of the two oiler cups on the inducer motor.
