    9. Push in gas control knob or reset button if so equipped, all the way in and hold. Immediately light the pilot with a match. Continue to hold the gas control knob or reset button in for about 1 minute after the pilot is lit. Release knob or button, and it will pop up back up. Pilot should remain lit.
  • Page 18: General Instructions

    GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS Before seasonal start-up, have a competent service agency check the boiler for soot and scale in the flues, clean the burners and check the gas input rate to maintain high operating efficiency.
  • Page 19 When the cleaning process is complete, restore the boiler components to their original position. Use boiler putty or IS-808 GE silicone, available from a Utica Boilers distributor, to seal around the flue collector and boiler castings.
  • Page 20: Checking Gas Input Rate To Boiler

    The burners and pilot should be checked for signs of corrosion, rust or scale buildup. The area around the boiler must be kept clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. The free flow of combustion and ventilating air to the boiler and boiler room must not be restricted or blocked.

    CHECK SAFETY CONTROL CIRCUIT, after burner adjustments are made, for satisfactory operation. 1. Pilot: With main burner operating, turn the pilot gas adjusting screw clockwise until pilot gas is turned off. See figures 14, 15, & 16 on pages 14 & 15. Within 90 seconds the main gas control should close, shutting off the gas to the main burner.
