Remove boiler from wood pallet
1. After removing the outer shipping carton from the boiler,
remove the parts box.
2. To remove the boiler from the pallet:
a. Remove the two (2) lag bolts securing the bottom
of the unit to the pallet.
b. Lift the boiler off the wall bracket mounted to
the pallet.
3. Remove the two (2) lag bolts securing the wall bracket to
the wood pallet. Be certain not to lose the wall bracket
as it will be needed for securing the boiler to the wall
(FIG. 2-1).
Do not drop the boiler or bump the jacket
on the floor or pallet. Damage to the
boiler can result.
The gas conversion procedure should
be accomplished BEFORE the boiler is
installed. For a boiler already installed,
you must turn off gas supply, turn off
power, and allow the boiler to cool before
proceeding. You must also completely
test the boiler after conversion to verify
performance as described under Start-up,
Section 10 of this manual.
You must install the propane orifice to fire
the Knight wall mount boiler on propane.
Verify when installing that the orifice size
marking matches boiler size (Table 2A).
Failure to comply could result in severe
personal injury, death, or substantial
property damage.
