SERIES 8800 & 8900 INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Page 15

B.

BEFORE OPERATING smell all around the
appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the
floor because some gas is heavier than air and will
settle on the floor.

What To Do If You Smell Gas

• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not tough any electric switch; do not use any

phone in your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s

phone. Follow the gas suppliers instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire

department.

AVANT DE FAIRE FONCTIONNER, reniflez tout autour
de l’appareil pour déceler une odeur de gaz. Reniflez
près du plancher, car certains gaz sont plus lourds que
l’air et peuvent s’accumuler au niveau du sol.

QUE FAIRE SI VOUS SENTEZ UNE ODEUR DE GAZ:

• Ne pas tenter d’allumer d’appareil.
• Ne touchez à aucun interrupteur; ne pas vous servir

des téléphones se trouvant dans le bâtiment.

• Appelez immédiatement votre fournisseur de gaz

depuis un voisin. Suives les instructions du
fournisseur.

• Si vous ne pouvez rejoindre le fournisseur, appelez

le service de incendies.

C) Do not use this appliance if any part has been under

water. Immediately call a qualified service technician
to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of
the control system and any gas control that has
been under water.

N’utilisez pas cet appareil s’il a été plongé dans
l’eau, même par tiellement. Faites inspecter
l’appareil par un tecnicien qualifié et remplacez
toute par tie du système de contrôle et toute
commande qui ont été plongés dans l’eau.

CAUTION: To prevent being burned, stand clear of
the boiler during ignition and don’t touch any hot
metal parts!

Operating Instructions

1.

STOP!

 Read the safety information above. If, at any

time, the appliance will not operate properly, follow
the instructions “TO TURN OFF GAS TO
APPLIANCE” and call your service technician or gas
supplier.

2.

Set the operating control or thermostat to off or its
lowest setting.

3.

Turn off all electric power to the appliance.

4.

This appliance is equipped with an ignition device
which automatically lights the pilot. Do 

not try to light

the pilot by hand.

5.

Close the manual main and pilot gas shut-off valves.

6.

Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. Then
small for gas, including near the floor. If you smell
gas, 

STOP!

 Follow “B” in the safety infomration

above. If you don’t smell gas go to next step.

7.

Connect a manometer having a minimum capacity
of 20" WC to the outlet pressure port of the gas
valve. Make sure that the gas supply piping has
been purged of air and that all gas joints up to the
gas valve have been thoroughly checked for leaks.

8.

Open the manual pilot valve.

9.

Turn on all electric power to the boiler.

10. Set the operating control or thermostat to the

desired setting.

11. The pilot(s) should automatically light. Do not try to

light the pilot(s) by hand!

12. With the pilot(s) lit, open the main gas shut-off valve.
13. The bur ners should light with proper boiler

operation.

14. A boiler designed for use with natural gas should

have a manifold gas pressure of approximately 4.0"
WC. For an LP boiler, the manifold pressure should
be 11" WC.  To adjust the manifold gas pressure see
the GAS PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT instructions in
the CHECKING AND ADJUSTMENT section.

15. With the burners in operation, close the manual

shutoff valve in the gas supply line. As soon as the
main burner flames go out, open the manual shutoff
valve. A normal ignition sequence should take place.
If the burners fail to light the system will make one
more ignition attempt. If the burners have not lit after
the last ignition try, the gas valve will close and the
system will go into lock out. 

DO

 

NOT

 attempt to

reset the system until the ignition system has been
inspected and the problem resolved.

With the burners in operation, interrupt the power
to the control circuit by lowering the operating
control or thermostat. The main burners should go
out. Reset the operating control or thermostat, a
normal ignition sequence should follow.

To test the ignition safety shutoff device, close the
manual shutoff valve in the gas supply line. Within
5 seconds of main burner flame extinction, the main
gas valve solenoid should close with an audible
noise.

A sparking noise should be heard while the ignition
module tries to relight the pilot. After 15 seconds the
module should lockout and the trial for ignition end.
After 5 minutes a second trial for ignition should
occur. Open the manual shutoff valve in the gas
supply line and reset the ignition control system. A
normal ignition sequence should take place.
