IMPORTANT INFORMATION - PLEASE READ THIS PAGE CAREFULLY
1. THIS BOILER HAS LIMITED WARRANTIES, COPIES OF WHICH ARE PRINTED ON THE BACK COVER OF THIS
MANUAL.
2. THIS BOILER IS SUITABLE FOR INSTALLATION ON COMBUSTIBLE FLOORING. BOILER CAN NOT BE INSTALLED
ON CARPETING.
3. ALL BOILERS MUST BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH NATIONAL, STATE AND LOCAL PLUMBING, HEATING
AND ELECTRICAL CODES AND THE REGULATIONS OF THE SERVING UTILITIES WHICH MAY DIFFER FROM THIS
MANUAL. AUTHORITIES HAVING JURISDICTION SHOULD BE CONSULTED BEFORE INSTALLATIONS ARE MADE.
IN ALL CASES, REFERENCE SHOULD BE MADE TO THE FOLLOWING STANDARDS:
USA BOILERS
A. Current Edition of American National Standard ANSI/NFPA 31, “Installation of Oil Burning Equipment”, for clearances between boiler, vent connector and
combustible material.
B. Current Edition of American National Standard ANSI/NFPA 211, “Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel Burning Appliances”, For Chimney require-
ments, type of venting material and clearances between vent connector pipe and combustible materials.
C. Current Edition of American Society of Mechanical Engineers ASME CSD-1, “Controls and Safety Devices for Automatically Fired Boilers”, for assembly
and operations of controls and safety devices.
CANADA BOILERS
A. Current Edition of Canadian Standards Association CSA B139, “Installation Code for Oil Burning Equipment”, for recommended Installation Practices.
4. ALL HEATING SYSTEMS SHOULD BE DESIGNED BY COMPETENT CONTRACTORS AND ONLY PERSONS
KNOWLEDGEABLE IN THE LAYOUT AND INSTALLATION OF HYDRONIC HEATING SYSTEMS SHOULD ATTEMPT
INSTALLATION OF ANY BOILER.
5. THE BOILER MUST BE CONNECTED TO AN APPROVED CHIMNEY IN GOOD CONDITION. SERIOUS PROPERTY
DAMAGE COULD RESULT IF THE BOILER IS CONNECTED TO A DIRTY OR INADEQUATE CHIMNEY. THE INTERIOR
OF THE CHIMNEY FLUE MUST BE INSPECTED AND CLEANED BEFORE THE START OF THE HEATING SEASON
AND SHOULD BE INSPECTED PERIODICALLY THROUGHOUT THE HEATING SEASON FOR ANY OBSTRUCTIONS. A
CLEAN AND UNOBSTRUCTED CHIMNEY FLUE IS NECESSARY TO ALLOW NOXIOUS FUMES THAT COULD CAUSE
INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE TO VENT SAFELY AND WILL CONTRIBUTE TOWARD MAINTAINING THE BOILER’S
EFFICIENCY.
6. READ THE LITERATURE ENCLOSED BY THE MANUFACTURER WITH THE VARIOUS ACCESSORY DEVICES. THESE
ACCESSORY DEVICES MUST BE INSTALLED AND USED ACCORDING TO THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE
MANUFACTURER.
7. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE INSTALLING CONTRACTOR TO SEE THAT ALL CONTROLS ARE CORRECTLY
INSTALLED AND ARE OPERATING PROPERLY WHEN THE INSTALLATION IS COMPLETED.
8. FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE AND SERVICEABILITY FROM THIS UNIT ADHERE TO THE FOLLOWING
RECOMMENDATIONS:
A. DO NOT TAMPER WITH THE UNIT OR CONTROLS. Retain your contractor or a competent serviceman to assure that the unit is properly adjusted and
maintained.
B. Clean Firetubes at least once a year - preferably at the end of the heating season to remove soot and scale. Inside of Combustion Chamber should also be
cleaned at the same time.
C. Have Oil Burner and Controls checked at least once a year or as may be necessitated.
WARNING
THIS BOILER IS DESIGNED TO BURN NO. 2 FUEL OIL ONLY. DO NOT USE GASOLINE, CRANKCASE
DRAININGS, OR ANY OIL CONTAINING GASOLINE. NEVER BURN GARBAGE OR PAPER IN THIS BOILER.
DO NOT CONVERT TO ANY SOLID FUEL (I.E. WOOD, COAL) OR GASEOUS FUEL (I.E. NATURAL GAS, LP/
PROPANE). ALL FLAMMABLE DEBRIS, RAGS, PAPER, WOOD SCRAPS, ETC., SHOULD BE KEPT CLEAR OF
THE BOILER AT ALL TIMES. KEEP THE BOILER AREA CLEAN AND FREE OF FIRE HAZARDS.
All boilers equipped with burner swing door have a potential hazard which can cause severe property damage,
personal injury or loss of life if ignored. Before opening swing door, turn off service switch to boiler and
disconnect two halves of Burner Swing Door Interlock wiring harness to prevent accidental firing of burner
outside the combustion chamber. Be sure to tighten swing door fastener completely and reconnect two
halves of Burner Swing Door Interlock when service is completed
CAUTION
This boiler contains controls which may cause the boiler to shut down and not restart without service. If
damage due to frozen pipes is a possibility, the heating system should not be left unattended in cold weather;
or appropriate safeguards and alarms should be installed on the heating system to prevent damage if the
boiler is inoperative.
