CAUTION
A qualifi ed installer, service agency
or the gas supplier must perform
installation and service on the fuel
delivery system.
Before commissioning the equipment,
verify with authorized personnel that
the gas lines have been purged.
Never attempt to operate equipment
that has failed to pass all the safety
checks.
After checking controls by manual
adjustment, make sure they are always
reset to their proper settings. Contact
your Fulton dealer before modifying the
equipment.
NOTE: For new installations/burner has been disassembled, the burner may not
fi re upon fi rst attempt because air must be cleared from gas lines. The burner
protectorelay may go into lockout mode; allow a period of one minute to elapse,
then repeat procedure for starting the burner.
STARTING THE BURNER  OIL
1. Open the oil line’s shut-off valves.
2. Verify oil is present at the oil pump.
3. Switch on main power to burner. If the boiler was in a low water condition,
the manual reset button must be pressed.
4. Start the burner by turning on the switch on the outside of the panel box.
The blower motor will begin to deliver air into the furnace.
5. As the blower starts, the magnetic oil valve is energized, allowing the oil
pump to deliver fuel for ignition.
6. If the protectorelay does not sense fl ame via the CAD cell or UV scanner
located on the top of the burner in approximately 15 seconds, it will shut
down the burner.

Operating Controls
Water Relief Valve
The Water Relief Valve releases extra pressure.
Water Outlet Valve
The Water Outlet Valve serves as the isolation valve for the system.
Temperature Control
The Temperature Control is a digital indicating control used to turn the boiler on
and off , and to control the fi ring rate when the boiler is modulated. The digital
display will show both the boiler process temperature and the boiler setpoint.
Operating Temperature Aquastat
The Operating Temperature Aquastat controls the working temperature of the
boiler. This is an ASME CSD-1 code control which will turn the boiler off when the
water temperature exceeds its setpoint. It is an auto-reset control.
