The glowing fuel must not be extinguished or cooled down with
water.
Feeder
Set the fuel supply switch in “0” (zero) position. Set the blower switch in
the blower (<dmuchawa>) position, switch off feeding – press the red button on
the emergency switch. The blower will continue to work and burn out the fuel
on the grate and then it will start to cool down the head. Open the chimney
damper in the boiler. After the fuel burns out, boiler doors may be opened in
order for the boiler to cool down. When the temperature starts to drop, switch
off the device.
4. Troubleshooting, Safe Operation Conditions
The main precondition of boiler safe operation is construction of its
installation and protections according to Polish standards.
In order to maintain safe operating conditions of the boiler, it is necessary
to follow the principles listed below :
•
wear protective gloves and goggles
•
do not block charging flaps and ash pan doors
•
grate change shall be performed using the ash pan lever
•
use portable 24V lamps
•
maintain order and cleanness in the boiler room
•
maintain good technical condition of the boiler and its related
installation
•
during the winter season ensure that the heating process is
continuous
If water freezing in the installation is suspected, check whether
safety piping is not blocked. The water added to the water charge
in the installation shall return through the overflow pipe from the
pressure vessel. If safety piping is blocked, the boiler must not be
ignited, and if it has been operating, proceed as in boiler
emergency shutdown procedure (see p. 3.5.)
4.1. Installation of the fuel container in non-heated premises
Installation of the fuel container in unheated premises does not constitute
a problem to the container operation as such. However condensation resulting
from changes of atmospheric conditions, combined with the heat conducted by
the worm shaft may cause the device to freeze when the outdoor temperature
drops.
