WARNING: All installation procedures must be followed completely by a competent installer familiar with boilers
and boiler accessories.
CAUTION: Read and follow all instructions before installing any boiler equipment. All cover plates, enclosures
and guards must be maintained and in place at all times, except during maintenance and servicing.
A. Unloading
The boiler was loaded by Lattner (including any accessories)
and accepted by the transport company as undamaged.
Therefore, before unloading the equipment, determine
whether any shipping damage is apparent. Once the
equipment is lifted from the trailer, any damage sustained
during transit and not filed with the transport company will be
the responsibility of the rigger or purchaser.
1.
Lifting
The boiler will arrive secured to a wooden skid/pallet and
will include a lifting lug (top of the boiler). When moving
or lifting the unit, DO NOT attach slings around the boiler
or to the burner in an attempt to pull the boiler.
2.
Forklift
If lifting with a forklift, extended forks should be used and
placed beneath the skid. Care must be taken to ensure
that the boiler sits correctly on the forks such that the unit
does not topple. Always note the weight of the boiler
relative to the lifting capacity of the forklift.
3.
Crane or Boom
When lifting with a crane or boom, attach the hook to the
lifting lug on top of the boiler. DO NOT attach slings or
chains to any part of the boiler, boiler piping, or burner.
B. Rigging
Always use a competent rigger that has experience moving
and setting boilers. If the unit will be moved into
permanent location with a forklift, crane, or boom follow the
directions in section A. However, if moving the unit through a
tight space or into an area that will not permit a forklift, etc.,
place the boiler on rollers or on 2" pipes and roll the boiler
into place. If the unit is dragged, attach chains to the base
frame only.
CAUTION: DO NOT lay the boiler on its side as the panels
will not support the weight of the boiler without sustaining
damage. If the entry is too narrow for the boiler and controls
to pass through, removal of the trim and controls can be
executed. One should properly denote all wiring and piping
connections and match mark accordingly for attachment after
the boiler is placed. It may be helpful to use a digital camera
to record the location of trim items for reference.

C.
Placement of Boiler
1. Floor
Boiler must be placed on a level, noncombustible
surface. NEVER install boiler on a wood floor or any
other combustible surface (i.e., carpet, linoleum).
2.
Combustible Surface

minimum clearances to combustible surfaces:
3.
Non-Combustible Surface
When placing boiler near non-combustible
(i.e., cement or cinder block walls), maintain 18" around
the boiler for servicing. NOTE: Any state or local fire
and building codes requiring additional clearances take
precedence over the above requirements.
D. Combustion Air
1. Ventilation
The boiler room must be adequately ventilated to supply
combustion air to the boiler. The vent must be opened
to the outside to allow air to flow into the room. Proper
sizing of the vent is important to ensure that sufficient
free air is available for complete combustion and proper
venting of the flue gases.

2 Vent Size
Use the following chart to determine vent
Lattner boilers. Chart based on a minimum of 1 sq. in.
per 4,000 BTU input. Ideal is 1 sq. in. per 2,000 BTU
input per NFPA 54. For Canada, refer to CSA B149. 1-
10.
