Section 3 – Operation 

Post these instructions in an appropriate place near the boiler and maintain in good legible 

condition. 

Warning   

If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property 

damage, personal injury, or loss of life. 

 

Fulton Pulse combustion boilers do not have a pilot. They are equipped with an ignition device which 

automatically lights the boiler.  Do not try to light the boiler by hand. 

 

BEFORE OPERATING

 smell all around the boiler area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor as some 

gas is heavier than air and will settle. 

 

IF YOU SMELL GAS:

 

  - Do not light any appliance. 

  - Do not touch any electric switch. 

  - Do not use any phone in your building. 

  - Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone, and then follow your gas supplier’s 

instructions. If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department. 

 

Use only your hand to turn the gas cock knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not turn by hand, don’t try 

to repair it. Call a qualified service technician. 

FORCE OR ATTEMPTED REPAIR MAY RESULT IN A 

FIRE OR EXPLOSION. 

 

Note 

 

DO NOT use this boiler if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service 

technician to inspect the boiler and to replace any part of the control system and/or gas control(s) 

which has been under water. 

 

1.  Before Operating Your Fulton Pulse Boiler   

a)  Stop!  Make sure you have read and followed all previous safety information. 

b)  Turn off all electric power to the boiler. 

c)  Turn gas cock knob clockwise to “OFF”. Figure 18. (This gas cock knob is also the 

emergency shut-off device.)
