Back CoverContentsInstallation & Operation Manual3 Please read before proceedingInstaller Read all instructions,including this Manual and the KnightBoiler Service Manual , before steps in the order This Manual is for use only by aqualified heating installer/servicetechnician. Refer to the User sInformation Manual for your this boiler serviced/inspected by aqualified service technician, at to comply with the above couldresult in severe personal injury, death orsubstantial property to adhere to the guidelines on thispage can result in severe personal injury,death, or substantial property servicing boiler To avoid electric shock, disconnect electrical supply before performing maintenance.

8 To avoid severe burns, allow boiler to cool before performing Operation Do not block flow of combustion or ventilation air to the boiler. Should overheating occur or gas supply fail to shut off, do not turn off or disconnect electrical supply to circulator. Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location external to the appliance. Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water. The possible damage to a flooded appliance can be extensive and present numerous safety hazards. Any appliance that has been under water must be water Thoroughly flush the system (without boiler connected) to remove sediment.

9 The high-efficiency heat exchanger can be damaged by build-up or corrosion due to sediment. Do not use petroleum-based cleaning or sealing compounds in the boiler system. Gaskets and seals in the system may be damaged. This can result in substantial property damage. Do not use homemade cures or boiler patent medicines . Serious damage to the boiler, personnel, and/or property may result. Continual fresh make-up water will reduce boiler life. Mineral buildup in the heat exchanger reduces heat transfer, overheats the stainless steel heat exchanger, and causes failure.

10 Addition of oxygen carried in by makeup water can cause internal corrosion in system components. Leaks in boiler or piping must be repaired at once to prevent makeup protection fluids NEVER use automotive antifreeze. Use only inhibited propylene glycol solutions, which are specifically formulated for hydronic systems. Ethylene glycol is toxic and can attack gaskets and seals used in hydronic calling or writing about the boiler Please have the boiler model and serialnumber from the boiler rating piping and Installation whendetermining boiler claims for damage or shortage inshipment must be filed immediatelyagainst the transportation company bythe warranty (shipped with unit)
