5. Remove heat exchanger corner brackets.

6. Remove combustion chamber clips at the four cor-

ners of the heat exchanger.

7. Lift heat exchanger straight up using caution not to

damage refractory.

Heat Exchanger Re-Assembly

1. Heat exchanger water header O-rings should be

replaced with new ones.

2. Install in/out and return water headers and install

header retainer nuts and torque nuts evenly.

3. Install the four (4) corner clips between tube

sheets and refractory. Replace "V" baffles.

4. Install thermostat sensing bulbs in header wells

and replace bulb retaining clips.

5. Install inlet and return pipes in water headers

using pipe thread sealant.

6. Install water pressure relief valve, flow switch, and

low water cut-off devices if so equipped.

7. Open water supply and return shut-off valves. Fill

boiler and water piping system with water. Check

boiler and piping system for leaks at full line pres-

sure. Run system circulating pump for a minimum

of 1/2 hour with boiler off.

8. Shut down entire system and vent all radiation

units and high points in system piping. Check all

strainers for debris. Expansion tank water level

should be at the 1/4 mark and the balance of the

tank filled with air.

9. Install flue collector, jacket top and inspection pan-

els. Install top holding screws. Install draft diverter

and vent piping if so equipped.

10. If gas piping was disconnected, reconnect gas pip-

ing system and check for leakage using a soapy

solution.

11. Check for correct water pressure and water level

in the system. Make sure that system pump oper-

ates immediately on the call for heat. The system

is ready for operation.

12. Within two (2) days of start-up, recheck all air

vents and expansion tank levels.

Combustion Chamber Removal

To remove combustion chamber you must first remove

the heat exchanger. Unbolt metal combustion cham-

ber retainer from top and remove combustion chamber

panels individually.

Control Well Replacement

Remove top, sensing bulb and clip. Collapse well tube

at the opening with a chisel, push through into header

and remove the well through header. Insert a new well

and roll into place. If a roller is not available, solder the

well in place with silver solder.

Tube Replacement Procedure

1. Remove heat exchanger from boiler following

instructions outlined under HEAT EXCHANGER

REMOVAL above.

2. Remove in/out and return headers. Remove "V"

baffle from damaged tube.

3. Remove damaged tube by cutting with a hack saw

or shearing with a chisel adjacent to each tube

sheet.

4. Collapse stub ends in tube sheets using a chisel or

screwdriver. DO NOT cut into tube sheet or mar

surface in tube hole in any way.
