WARNING:

Do not attempt any cleaning or maintenance without first switching OFF the electricity and oil supply

Electricity Supply

This boiler must be earthed. Connection should be
made to a 230V 50Hz supply. The boiler must be
protected by a 5 amp fuse through a double pole
isolating switch.

Warning: Do not exchange neutral with live, this will
cause damage to the burner controls.

Oil Supply

The boiler will have been adjusted by your installer to
burn either:

Kerosine

(Class C2, 28 second viscosity to BS 2869 Pt 2:1998)

or

 

Gas Oil

(Class D, 35 second viscosity to BS 2869 Pt 2:1998)

Balanced flue boilers should not be fired on Gas
Oil.

Note: If the oil tank is run dry you will be charged
if an engineer is called to bleed the pump of air,
after the tank is refilled.

The Fuel Tank

Do not allow the level of the oil to fall to the bottom of
the tank as sludge might be sucked into the fuel pipe.

If possible, switch off the burner before any fresh supply
of oil is delivered and start it again about one hour
later to give any dirt in the tank a chance to settle.

Air Supply

Your installer will have made arrangements for an
adequate supply of fresh air to the boiler, to ensure
safe operation.  Do not block any air supply vents,
which may be in the wall of the boiler room, without
consulting your installer or service engineer. If the boiler
is installed in a compartment, do not use the
compartment for storage purposes, and do not obstruct
any ventilation openings.

Operation of the Burner

The burner is completely automatic and is controlled
either by a boiler or room thermostat. It starts when
the water or air temperature falls below that set on the
thermostat and stops as soon as the desired
temperature is reached.

Ancillary controls i.e., room/cylinder thermostats
should be installed to give additional economic
operation.

To Light the Boiler

Check that there is oil in the oil tank, and that all stop
valves in the oil supply pipe are open.
Switch on the electricity supply to the boiler, set the
boiler controls and any internal/external timer or room
thermostat to the required settings.
The boiler operation is automatic from this point.
