UNPACKING INSTRUCTION: Carefully unpack the water boiler and inspect
immediately for shipping damages. Your automatic water boiler was shipped in a carton
designed to give maximum protection in normal handling. It was thoroughly inspected
before leaving the factory and the carrier accepted and signed for it. File any claims for
shipping damage or irregularities with the carrier.

ASSEMBLY: The four legs, faucet, float ball, and vent cap drain are packed separately
with the water boiler. Install legs by tilting the water boiler on its side and screwing the
legs into the leg supports until hand tight. Carefully right the unit and install it in its
permanent location, being sure to leave at least 6" on the right side of the water boiler
for access to the control box. Level the unit by adjusting the bottom pad of the legs.

INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTION:

PRE-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: The installation of your water boiler must be
made by a licensed plumber and the installation must conform with State and Local
Codes or in absence of Local Codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 a
latest version.

AIR SUPPLY AND VENTILATION: Adequate ventilation and air supply must be
provided in order for the water boiler to operate properly and efficiently. The area in
front of and above the unit must be clear to avoid any obstruction of flow of combustion
and ventilation air. DO NOT under
any circumstances, connect the water boiler flue directly to 3 building exhaust system
or place the flue outlet directly into the plenum of the exhaust hood as it will adversely
affect the gas combustion of the water boiler.
