CAUTION!

Avoid operation with damaged seals

Never operate the boiler with damaged seals.
Otherwise, leak air is sucked in, disturbing the
combustion process and causing increased wear.

Always replace seals as soon as they are
damaged.

Close heat exchanger cover

Position the heat exchanger cover carefully. 

Fig. 2-32: Heat exchanger cover

Turn both ball knobs through 180° to secure the heat
exchanger cover. Then tighten the two knurled nuts
evenly and cross-wise by turning them clockwise.

Put the insulating cover back on.
