WARNING
This boiler is suitable for installation on combustible flooring. Do not install boiler on carpeting.
Installation is not complete unless a pressure relief valve is installed into the tapping located on top left
corner of rear section - See Piping and Trim Sections of this manual for details.
This boiler is designed to burn No. 2 fuel oil only. Do not use gasoline, crankcase drainings, or any oil
containing gasoline. Never burn garbage or paper in this boiler. Do not convert to any solid fuel (i.e.
wood, coal). Do not convert to any gaseous fuel (i.e. natural gas, LP). All flammable debris, rags, paper,
wood scraps, etc., should be kept clear of the boiler at all times. Keep the boiler area clean and free of
fire hazards.
This boiler needs fresh air for safe operation and must be installed so there are provisions for adequate
combustion and ventilation air.
This boiler must be connected to an approved chimney in good condition. Serious property damage
could result if the boiler is connected to a dirty or inadequate chimney. The interior of the chimney flue
must be inspected and cleaned before the start of the heating season for any obstructions. A clean and
unobstructed chimney flue is necessary to allow noxious fumes that could cause injury or loss of life to
vent safely and will contribute toward maintaining the boiler's efficiency.
Inspect flueways at least once a year - preferably at the start of the heating season. The inside of
the combustion chamber, the vent system and boiler flueways should be cleaned if soot or scale has
accumulated.
When cleaning this boiler, do not damage combustion chamber liner and/or rear target wall. If damaged,
combustion chamber insulation must be replaced immediately.
This boiler requires regular maintenance and service to operate safely. Follow the instructions contained
in this manual. Installation, maintenance, and service must be performed only by an experienced, skilled
and knowledgeable installer or service agency.
It is the responsibility of the installing contractor to see that all controls are correctly installed and
are operating properly when the installation is completed. Do not tamper with or alter the boiler or
controls.
Do not operate unit if any control, switch, component, or device has been subject to water. When cleaning
this boiler, do not damage combustion chamber liner and/or rear target wall. If damaged, combustion
chamber insulation must be replaced immediately.
Oil Burner and Controls must be checked at least once a year or as may be necessitated.
All boilers equipped with burner swing door have a potential hazard which if ignored can cause severe
property damage, personal injury or loss of life. Before opening swing door, turn off service switch to
boiler to prevent accidental firing of burner outside the combustion chamber. Be sure to tighten swing
door fastener completely when service is completed.
Appliance materials of construction, products of combustion and the fuel contain alumina, silica, heavy
metals, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, aldehydes and/or other toxic or harmful substances which
can cause death or serious injury and which are known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth
defects and other reproductive harm. Always use proper safety clothing, respirators and equipment when
servicing or working nearby the appliance.
High water temperatures increase the risk of scalding injury. If this boiler is equipped with a tankless
heater for domestic water supply, a flow regulator and automatic mixing valve must be installed properly
in tankless heater piping. See Piping and Trim Sections of the manual for details.
