Modu-Fire Gas-Fired Boiler
•
Fire and explosion hazards! Do not store or use
gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids in
the vicinity of this or any other gas fired appli-
ance.
•
Burn hazard! Possible hot surfaces. Do not
touch gas vent during firing operation. Use only
factory recommended vent components.
•
Burn hazard! Hot fluids. Use caution when
servicing or draining boiler.
•
Fire and explosion hazards! Use caution when
servicing burner. Propane (LPG) is heavier than
air and may linger in the combustion chamber,
vent lines, or elsewhere.
•
Gas leak hazard! Make sure all connections to
main burner are tight when reassembling the
burner. These connections cannot be tested af-
ter the burner is assembled.
•
Gas leak hazard! All threaded gas connections
must be made using a pipe compound that is re-
sistant to liquefied petroleum. Do not use Tef-
lon™ tape on threaded gas piping.
•
Gas leak hazard! Check entire gas train for
leaks after installation. If there is a smell of gas,
shut down the boiler and obtain immediate as-
sistance from factory-trained personnel and/or
your local fire department.
•
Overfire hazard! Possible fire and explosion
from excess gas pressure. Make sure that gas
inlet pressure does not exceed 14 inches w.c. to
the regulator.
•
Overfire hazard! Possible fire and explosion.
Possible malfunction of regulators and/or mo-
torized gas valves. Maintain all gas train com-
ponents in good condition. Do not alter wiring
connections. Annual inspection by factory-
trained personnel for proper set-up and opera-
tion is recommended.
•
Overfire and underfire hazards! Possible fire,
explosion, overheating, and component failure.
Do not attempt to adjust firing rate of the boiler.
The firing rate must be adjusted only by fac-
tory-trained personnel.

2.5.3 Crush Hazards

•
Lifting hazards! Use properly rated lifting
equipment to lift and position the boiler. The
load is unbalanced. Test balance before lifting 3
ft. above the floor. Do not allow personnel be-
neath the lifted load. Refer to approximate
weights in the table below:
Boiler Size
1,000,000 Btu
1,500,000 Btu
2,000,000 Btu
•
Bump hazard from overhead piping. Install pip-
ing with adequate vertical clearance.

2.5.4 Chemical Hazards

•
Environmental hazard! The motorized gas
valves may contain hydraulic oil. Use safe pro-
cedures for the disposal of all lubricants.
•
Chemical hazards from cleaning products. Use
caution when cleaning the system. The use of
professional assistance is recommended. Use
safe procedures for the disposal of all cleaning
solutions.
