If an extra expansion vessel is fitted to the central heating return, adjust
this to the same pressure as the appliance internal expansion vessel,
refer to separate instructions supplied with the extra expansion vessel.
4. Open all system and radiator valves.
▶ Turn on the water main stop cock.
▶ Close the flow pipe manual air vent when water is vented.
▶ Fill the system to between 1 and 2 bar pressure via a WRAS approved
filling link. Monitor the pressure gauge during venting and
repressurise if required.
▶ Check air is being discharged from the automatic air vents.
▶ Vent all radiators, retighten when completed, check the system and
correct any leaks.
▶ Bleed air from both of the secondary heat exchanger air vents [B]
and flow pipe air vent.
▶ Bleed air from the pump using the pump bleed screw.

Starting the appliance

NOTICE:
Never run the appliance when the appliance/system is
unpressurised or empty.
1. Check the oil supply is correctly fitted, pressure tested and in good
working order before turning on the oil supply valves to the boiler.
▶ Turn on the main oil supply valve at the tank and draw off at least
2.5 litres of oil until a steady flow of clear uncontaminated oil can be
seen as follows:
– The oil supply to the boiler should be primed before the burner is
operated to avoid unnecessary pump wear.
– The use of an oil suction pump will prime and flush through any oil
supply set up simply and easily, alternatively the following
procedures can be used.
Single pipe gravity feed systems:
▶ Disconnect the flexible oil hose and open the isolating valve to
discharge the oil into a suitable container.
Replace flexible hose at annual service to prevent
possible oil leakage.
▶ If a top entry tank has been used the pipework will need to be primed
before the oil will discharge under gravity.
▶ When completed, close the isolating valve, reconnect the flexible oil
hose.
Double pipe sub-gravity feed systems and single pipe suction lift
with de-aerator:
▶ Turn on the boiler, the oil level in the de-aerator will drop as the oil is
used until the oil is drawn from the tank. If the de-aerator empties and
the burner locks out before the oil is drawn from the tank, prime the
de-aerator again.
▶ To prime a de-aerator, disconnect the flexible oil inlet hose [E] from
the isolation valve and place in a container of Kerosene [G]. Connect
a spare flexible oil hose [H], to discharge into container [G]. Open
the isolating valve, turn on the power to the boiler and set the
programmer to ON. Prime the de-aerator until there is a steady flow
of oil into container [G]. Turn off the boiler then reconnect the
flexible oil inlet hose [E].

When the oil reaches the pump, bleed the air from the pump as
follows
▶ Open the isolating valve and the oil pump bleed port [A] to discharge
into a suitable container once the boiler is started up.
▶ Switch on the electricity supply to the boiler.
▶ Set the programmer to ON for CH and DHW.
▶ Turn on the boiler CH control thermostat.
▶ Allow the burner to run through to lockout indicated by the control
panel LCD display [J] showing code 9F 855.
