Follow "To Turn Off Gas to Appliance" instructions under Lighting instructions on boiler label and

Allow time for boiler to cool to room temperature if it has been firing.
Remove jacket front door by removing two knurled head screws at lower front. Lift door away from

Re-attach the venturi to the cover plate (Ultra-80 or -105) or to the blower (Ultra-155, -230 or
-310).
