WARNING NOTES FOR THE USER HOW TO USE THE BURNER SAFELY
FOREWORD
These warning notes are aimed at ensuring the safe use of the components
of heating systems for civil use and the production of hot water. They
indicate how to act to avoid the essential safety of the components being
compromised by incorrect or erroneous installation and by improper or
unreasonable use. The warning notes provided in this guide also seek
to make the consumer more aware of safety problems in general, using
necessarily technical but easily understood language. The manufacturer
is not liable contractually or extra contractually for any damage caused
by errors in installation and in use, or where there has been any failure to
follow the manufacturer's instructions.
GENERAL WARNING NOTES
• The instruction booklet is an integral and essential part of the product and
E
must be given to the user. Carefully read the warnings in the booklet as
they contain important information regarding safe installation, use and
N
maintenance. Keep the booklet to hand for consultation when needed.
• Equipment must be installed in accordance with current regulations, with
G
the manufacturer's instructions and by qualified technicians. By the term
'qualified technicians' is meant persons that are competent in the field
L
of heating components for civil use and for the production of hot water
and, in particular, assistance centres authorised by the manufacturer.
I
Incorrect installation may cause damage or injury to persons, animals
or things. The manufacturer will not in such cases be liable.
S
• After removing all the packaging make sure the contents are complete
H
and intact. If in doubt do not use the equipment and return it to the
supplier. The packaging materials (wooden crates, nails, staples, plastic
bags, expanded polystyrene, etc.) must not be left within reach of children
as they may be dangerous to them. They should also be collected and
disposed on in suitably prepared places so that they do no pollute the
environment.
• Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance, switch off the equipment
at the mains supply, using the system's switch or shut-off systems.
• If there is any fault or if the equipment is not working properly, de-activate
the equipment and do not attempt to repair it or tamper with it directly. In
such case get in touch with only qualified technicians. Any product repairs
must only be carried out by BALTUR authorised assistance centres using
only original spare parts. Failure to act as above may jeopardise the
safety of the equipment. To ensure the efficiency and correct working of
the equipment, it is essential to have periodic maintenance carried out
by qualified technicians following the manufacturer's instructions.
• If the equipment is sold or transferred to another owner or if the owner
moves and leaves the equipment, make sure that the booklet always
goes with the equipment so it can be consulted by the new owner and/
or installer.
• For all equipment with optionals or kits (including electrical), only original
accessories must be used.
BURNERS
• This equipment must be used only for its expressly stated use: applied to
boilers, hot air boilers, ovens or other similar equipment and not exposed
to atmospheric agents. Any other use must be regarded as improper use
and hence dangerous.
• The burner must be installed in a suitable room that has ventilation in
accordance with current regulations and in any case sufficient to ensure
correct combustion
• Do not obstruct or reduce the size of the burner' air intake grills or the
ventilation openings for the room where a burner or a boiler is installed
or dangerous mixtures of toxic and explosive gases may form.
• Before connecting the burner check that the details on the plate correspond
to those of the utility supplies (electricity, gas, light oil or other fuel).
• Do not touch hot parts of the burner. These, normally in the areas near
to the flame and any fuel pre-heating system, become hot when the
equipment is working and stay hot for some time after the burner has
stopped.
• If it is decided not to use the burner any more, the following actions must
be performed by qualified technicians:
a) Switch off the electrical supply by disconnecting the power cable from
the master switch.
b) Cut off the fuel supply using the shut-off valve and remove the control
wheels from their position.
c) Render harmless any potentially dangerous parts.
Special warning notes
• Check that the person who carried out the installation of the burner fixed
it securely to the heat generator so that the flame is generated inside
the combustion chamber of the generator itself.
• Before starting up the burner, and at least once a year, have qualified
technicians perform the following operations:
a) Set the burner fuel capacity to the power required by the heat
generator.
b) Adjust the combustion air flow to obtain combustion yield of at least
the minimum set by current regulations.
c) Carry out a check on combustion to ensure the production of noxious
or polluting unburnt gases does not exceed limits permitted by current
regulations.
d) Check the adjustment and safety devices are working properly.
e) Check the efficiency of the combustion products exhaust duct.
f) Check at the end of the adjustments that all the adjustment devices
mechanical securing systems are properly tightened.
g) Make sure that the use and maintenance manual for the burner is
in the boiler room.
• If the burner repeatedly stops in lock-out, do not keep trying to manually
reset but call a qualified technicians to sort out the problem.
• The running and maintenance of the equipment must only be carried out
by qualified technicians, in compliance with current regulations.
