e. Repeat steps (c) and (d) until the specified input rate is
achieved.
f. Turn the manual gas valve to “OFF”. Replace the pressure
regulator cover screw. Remove the pressure gauge or
manometer from the manifold pressure tap. Replace the set
screw in the manifold pressure tap. If the gas pressure
regulator cannot be adjusted to give the full input rating with
sufficient gas pressure at the valve, check to ensure the unit
is equipped with the correct orifice.
WARNING
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THE INPUT EXCEED
THE RATE SHOWN ON THE HEATER RATING PLATE.
OVERFIRING COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE OR SOOTING OF THE
HEATER.
CATHODIC PROTECTION
CAUTION
HYDROGEN GAS CAN BE PRODUCED IN A HOT WATER SYSTEM
SERVED BY THIS HEATER THAT HAS NOT BEEN USED FOR A
LONG PERIOD OF TIME (GENERALLY TWO WEEKS OR MORE).
HYDROGEN GAS IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE.
To reduce the risk
of injury under these conditions, it is recommended that a hot
water faucet be opened for several minutes before using any
electrical appliance connected to the hot water system. If hydrogen
is present, there will probably be an unusual sound such as air
escaping through the pipe as the water begins to flow. There should
be no smoking or open flame near the faucet at the time it is open.
PRECAUTIONS
IF THE UNIT IS EXPOSED TO THE FOLLOWING, DO NOT
OPERATE HEATER UNTIL ALL CORRECTIVE STEPS HAVE BEEN
MADE BY A QUALIFIED SERVICEMAN.
1. FLOODING TO OR ABOVE THE LEVEL OF THE BURNER OR
CONTROLS
2. EXTERNAL FIRING
3. DAMAGE
4. FIRING WITHOUT WATER
5. SOOTING
NEVER OPERATE THE HEATER WITHOUT FIRST BEING CERTAIN
IT IS FILLED WITH WATER AND A TEMPERATURE AND
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE IS INSTALLED IN THE RELIEF VALVE
OPENING OF THE HEATER.
SHOULD OVERHEATING OCCUR OR THE GAS SUPPLY FAIL TO
SHUT OFF, TURN OFF THE MANUAL GAS CONTROL VALVE TO
THE APPLIANCE.
