7.2 Delivery and installation

The Remeha Gas 310 ECO is supplied fully assembled
plastic wrapped and packed in a crate on a pallet.
The overall dimensions of the crate are 80 cm wide and
175 cm high with the length dependant on the number
of sections (5 & 6 sections: 170 cm, 7 to 9 sections:
209 cm). The base of the packaging is a 76-cm wide
pallet to enable it to be transported with a pallet truck,
forklift truck or 4-wheel transport boards.
Excluding the crate the boiler is 72-cm wide c/w cas-
ing panels and 70 cm without casing and will fit through
most standard doors (minimum door opening width 80
cm). The boiler itself has wheels so that, once the pack-
aging has been removed, it can easily be moved around
on a smooth surface. The packaging lid includes a rock-
ing ramp, which can be used to negotiate obstacles

such as doorsteps and small plinths. Once in position
the boiler is fixed into position using the fitted jacking
bolts which both raise the wheels of the ground and
level the boiler. Technical documentation is supplied
with the boiler in a holder on the inside of the boiler cas-
ing (beneath the instrument panel). A number of small
loose components, such as the 4 support pads and the
syphon for the boiler have been placed in the flue gas
discharge.
It is advisable (preferable) to install the Remeha Gas
310 ECO as follows:
- Place the crate c/w the boiler in the boiler room. Make
sure there is enough room at one end of the crate for
the boiler and ramp and clearance for the crate to be
removed (at least 3 M).
Important!!
g
Always transport the boiler in
the protective packaging wherever possible.
- Remove fixing strips, packaging lid and all other pack-
aging leaving the boiler on the pallet.
- Place the packaging lid on the end of the pallet (cre-
ating a ramp - secure with screw).
- Roll the boiler on its wheels off the pallet down the
ramp to the boiler room floor.
g
WARNING! Use retaining straps to control
the rate of travel - Do not stand in front of the boiler!
- Manoeuvre the boiler to required final position.
iThe pallet lid can be used as a rocking ramp to
convey the boiler over obstacles, such as thresholds
etc.
Important!!
g
The wheels are designed for
transport purposes only and MUST NOT be used when
the boiler is in its final position!
- Place the 4 support pads under the adjustment bolts.
- Use the adjusting bolts to jack up the boiler lifting it
clear of the wheels and with the top of the conden-
sate collector level.
- Fit the siphon assembly.
Use the plastic packaging to protect the boiler until
required for use.
Important!!
g
Additional protection may be
required if site conditions warrant it – overhead builders
working, insulation etc.
