MOUNTING PHASES
POSITIONING THE BOILER BODY
After having prepared the electrical and hydraulic attachment on behalf of specialised staff , free the boiler
body from the factory packaging and position it in the provided place.
Use suitable tools to remove the wood axes and the boiler packaging elements and ensure
that polluting and potentially dangerous elements (cardboard, nails, axes, polystyrene,
nylon bags, etc.) are adequately disposed of as waste according to the local regulations
and are not left within the reach of children or disabled persons.
Check there are the spaces foreseen for side and rear access to the boiler, necessary for maintenance,
compulsory air inlet, and in particular that the inspection door for routine cleaning can be opened at 90°
without obstructions and that the power supply plug can be accessed after the boiler has been installed
according to the manual.
Also check that the pellet feeding into the side silo is easy.
The boiler can be directly rested on the fl oor (which must be ideal for the features and weight fl ow rate)
and adjusted in height, through the appropriate feet, in order to be perfectly levelled to the side to side
feeding silo.
It is a good rule to provide an adequate cement or iron base in very humid rooms or those with possible risk
of fl ooding, which lifts both the boiler and the silo from the ground, keeping the electrical and mechanical
parts safe. The base height varies in relation to the fl ooding risk.
