BOILER START-UP

6.3.
Starting the boiler with pellet/biomass
When the boiler is equipped with an automatic ignition follow technical instructions in the control
panel.
For manual ignition follow these steps:
Turn the control panel on from the general switch
and enter the manual mode.
Activate the motor to shift a portion of fuel
towards the furnace. To do this, switch to the
feeder icon by pressing "F" button and press
"START". Fill it until the fuel level reaches the
cast iron plate and covers a small part of it.
After shifting the fuel, press "STOP" button and
the feeder will switch off. Using sheets of thin
paper or other ignition material, light the fuel
placed in the furnace. Wait several minutes until
the flame stabilizes and covers the entire plate
surface.
Close the door of the boiler. Switch to the fan
icon by pressing "F" button. Enable the fan by
pressing START. Airflow power can be altered by
pressing "F" button for the second time. When
the fuel starts burning, exit the manual control
mode by pressing and holding "F" button.
Do not leave the regulator in manual operation mode without supervision. There
is a risk of flame retraction into the feeder and boiler overheat!

Checks to carry after initial start-up
During the first start-up you need to carefully check the air-tightness of all the connections,
especially the doors and the connection with the chimney.
Check that the temperature sensors function properly and devices operate accordingly. Wait for
the boiler to reach the preset temperature and make sure the fan stops properly and the flame
falls down. Check that pump is activated at the set temperature and functions properly.
Check the temperature and pressure rise in the network. Make sure it is according to the
indications. Check if there is any water leakage in the network.
After burning of the fuel is completed, check the situation inside the boiler. If the walls are too
black, it means that there is insufficient air supply. If there is condensation forming on the boiler
walls, it means that the pump operation starts at a low temperature or the fuel has too big
humidity content. Make sure you set the pump according to the indications and you install a
return temperature protection system as indicated.
