Start-up Checklists

Installation Checklists

To ensure proper and safe operation of all equipment and to maintain warranty coverage, it is
required that the checklist be completed at this time. Many of the items on the list must have
been checked by the electrician already. Forms must be provided with each unit; if not, contact
the Gasboy Atlas Distributor. Make copies of the checklists for use in the field, to preserve
originals for future use.
