or loss of life may occur!
11.7 - Gas supply
pressure checking
and adjustment
The gas supply pressure must match
that listed on the boiler rating label.
Check the gas supply pressure by
following the steps below:
1. close the manual gas shut off valve,

2. follow the steps in section 13.2 to
remove the front cover;
3. turn the screw in pressure port
"D" shown in fi gure 32 three turns
counterclockwise;
4. connect a manometer with
graduations of at least 0.1 in.W.C.
(0.25 mbar) to the inlet gas port "D"
shown in fi gure 32;

boiler will run for 10 minutes at
maximum input;
sure the gas supply pressure does
not drop below the "minimum
gas supply pressure" as stated
on section 14. If the gas supply
pressure does not fall within the
above values, adjust the upstream
gas pressure regulator to bring
the gas supply pressure within
the maximum and minimum range
listed on section 14.
