Door Hinges; Changing The Direction Of Door Opening - Riello RTC-80 Series Installation, Operation And Service Manual

2.13 Door hinges

The boilers are pre-fitted with three hinges so that the direction of
opening of the door can be rapidly reversed.
Once you have checked that the default direction of opening is as
required, or have reversed the direction of opening as instructed
in the 'Changing the direction of door opening' section, remove
the spare hinge assembly 'B' (screw, bushing and washer) oppo-
site the pivot side of the door.
Two different door hinge systems have been used to meet differ-
ent design requirements
System A
(on the smaller sizes) - comes with a bracket and two hinge fixing
nuts.
System B
(on the larger sizes) - comes with a hinge fixing plate, a nut and
an internal compression spring.
