WARNING
Improper gas valve adjustments can result in unreliable operation, substantial property damage, personal
injury or loss of life due to carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. Observe the following precautions:
• Do not attempt to adjust gas valve without a combustion analyzer.
• Each boiler is tested at the factory and adjustments to the gas valve are normally not necessary when
operating on natural gas at sea level. Before making any adjustments, make sure that the analyzer is
calibrated and that combustion readings have stabilized.
• Regulator (“offset”) screw used for low re adjustment is very sensitive. Adjust no more than 1/8 turn
before checking combustion with analyzer. Maximum total regulator adjustment is ± 1 turn from factory
setting.
To return the boiler to automatic modulation, press AUTO FIRE. Note: If the Auto Fire button is not pressed, boiler will
remaininmanualreforaround10minutes.After10minutesboilerautomaticallyreturnstoautomaticmodulation.

19) Refer to the Operation Manual to set-up the control for the system in which the boiler is installed. Some common set-up
tasks include:
• Setting the CH temperature set-point.
