STEP 3 - Electrical Wiring

• To prevent electrical shock, turn off the electrical power before making electrical connections.

• This low water cut-off must be installed in series with all other limit and operating controls installed on the

boiler. After installation, check for proper operation of all of the limit and operating controls, before leaving
the site.

• Modification of the switch assembly before or after installation could cause damage to the boiler and/or

boiler system.

Failure to follow this warning could cause electrical shock, an explosion and/or a fire, which could result in
property damage, personal injury or death.
