Maintenance
I VENT SYSTEM
ESCAPING GASES ARE DANGEROUS. THE ENTIRE FLUE AND VENTING SYSTEM SHOULD
BE INSPECTED AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR BY A QUALIFIED SERVICEMAN.
II OIL FILTER
The oil filter cartridge should be replaced annually.
III CLEANING
The tubular portions of the heat exchanger should be examined annually for scale and soot accumu-
lation.
Remove scale and soot with a flexible, 2 inch, soft, round brush and a boiler vacuum cleaner. Be care-
ful not to damage internal refractory insulation of the chamber floor.
Remove the oil burner to inspect the burner head. Any soot or scale can be removed from the cham-
ber through the burner opening.
IV OIL BURNER
A) Thoroughly brush clean the burner fan blades. Only with clean fan blades is proper combustion air
delivery possible.
B) Clean nozzle assembly and all air handling parts.
C) Check spacing and condition of the ignition electrodes.
D) Nozzles should be inspected every year for plugged distributor slots or plugged orifices. If it is nec-
essary to replace the nozzle, use only the specified nozzle to be sure that the replacement meets the spray
pattern specifications of the burner.
V GASKETS
Tighten the nuts on the water coil annually to prevent any gasket leaks. Deterioration due to coil gasket
leaks shall void the warranty.
VI WIRING
Check the electrical wiring for damage or frayed insulation..
