A.
Pressure Control - Remove cover and note pressure
setting. With boiler operating, decrease setting.
When setting is lower than boiler pressure, control
will open and turn off boiler. After checking pressure
control, reset control to original setting.
B.
Mechanical Low Water Cut-off - May be checked by
opening blow-off valve on lower portion of cut-off
body while boiler is running. This will drain water
from boiler and break circuit to burner.
Refill boiler to its normal water line.
C. Primary Control and Flame Sensor - Check
1.
Flame Failure
- Simulate by shutting off oil supply
with hand valve while burner is on. Sixty seconds after
flameout, safety switch locks out, ignition stops, motor
stops and oil valve - when used - closes. To restart, open
oil supply valve and reset safety switch.
2.
Ignition Failure
- With burner off, close oil supply
valve and run through start-up procedure. Safety
switch should lock out as in flame failure.
3.
Power Failure
- Turn off main power supply switch
while burner is operating. When burner stops, restore
power and burner should start. If operation is not as
described as above, check wiring and controls.
Preventative maintenance of oil fired boiler reduces
operating costs. Boiler and vent pipe should be inspected
for accumulation of soot or scale deposits periodically
but at least once every year before start of each heating
season. When soot is present on section walls and
flueways, improper combustion will result, causing
additional sooting and scaling until flueways are completely
closed. To remove soot and scale from flueways, remove
top jacket panel, top clean-out plate, open burner swing
door. See
Figure #14
.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Opening Burner Swing Door
1.
Turn off power to boiler and allow boiler to cool down.
2.
Disconnect power cable at factory supplied burner
electrical disconnect. See
Figure #14
.
3.
Loosen screws on sides of lower front jacket panel.
See
Figure 6
.
Pull bottom part of lower front panel forward
and lift lower front panel up and off boiler. See
Figure
#14
.
4.
Close oil valve and disconnect oil line from burner. See
Figures #12 - #13
.
IMPORTANT:
Do not open swing door with oil line
attached.
5.
Remove nut from swing door stud on right hand side of
door.
6.
Swing open burner and door to left. Using flue brush,
brush soot and scale into combustion space where it
can be removed through swing door opening.
NOTICE
Use caution when vacuuming in chamber area.
Damage to chamber could result.
Recommend replacing nozzle at start of each heating
season. Lubricate burner motor and circulator motor - if
required - with few drops of good grade of light motor
oil. Do not over oil. Have qualified service person service
burner and check controls and check electrodes for carbon
or cracks in insulators. Burners should be adjusted to
produce conditions shown in
"Startup and Adjustment of Oil
Burner."
Closing The Burner Swing Door
1.
Swing burner and door to right until insulation is
slightly compressed and stud is exposed.
2.
Attach nut to stud and tighten it until built in stop
contacts mounting door.
3.
Reconnect oil line to burner.
4.
Replace lower jacket panel, and tighten screws.
5.
Connect power cable at factory supplied burner
electrical disconnect.
