GOLD CGi Gas-Fired Water Boiler — Boiler Manual

Inspect . . .

Burners and base

The boiler contains ceramic fiber

and fiberglass materials. Use care
when handling these materials per
instructions on

page 68

of this

manual. Failure to comply could
result in severe personal injury.

If insulation is damaged or displaced,

do not operate the boiler. Replace

or reposition insulation as neces-

sary. Failure to replace damaged

insulation can result in a fire hazard,

causing severe personal injury, death

or substantial property damage.

1. After turning off power to the boiler, remove the base

burner shield (

Figure 40

, item

4

, page 60).

. Inspect burners and all other components in the boiler

base.

3. If burners must be cleaned see

Burner cleaning in-

structions

below.

4. Inspect the slotted jacket cooling openings in the bot-

tom left and right of the base pan (

Figure 40

, item

7

,

page 60).

5. Inspect the base insulation. Pay attention to the

WARN-

ING

on page 68 regarding working with insulation

materials. Verify that the insulation is intact and secure

against all four sides of the base.

Burner cleaning instructions

Airborne materials, such as fiberglass

and dust, are present during construc-

tion and remodeling. These materials

can be drawn in with the combustion

air and obstruct burner ports, resulting

in carbon monoxide production, a fire

hazard, or building freeze damage. Read

and follow the

WARNING

on page 9.

Failure to inspect and clear gas burner

ports could result in severe personal

injury, death or substantial property

damage.

1. Remove burner shield and the base pan air baffle. Next

remove the pilot bracket assembly. Then remove the

four screws securing the burner tray to the manifold

and slide the burner tray out under the manifold.

. Inspect each burner to insure that every port is com-

pletely open.

3. If any port is not completely clear, run a vacuum at the

burner inlet while cleaning the burner ports with a wire brush. The

vacuum will help to draw any airborne material out of the burner.

4. Reinstall components, starting with the burner tray, then the pilot

bracket assembly, burner baffle, and air inlet top and front panels.

5. Follow the start-up procedure in the boiler manual.

Condensate drain system

1. Inspect condensate drain fittings and tubing. Verify that condensate

can flow freely to drain.

Service . . .

Inducer motor

1. With boiler power

off

, place a few drops of S.A.E. 0 motor oil in

each of the two oil cups.

Use only

S.A.E. 20 motor oil

to lubricate the inducer

motor. Do not use universal household oils. Mo-

tor could be damaged, resulting in possible severe

property damage.

Oiled-bearing circulators

1. The circulator shipped with the CGi boiler is water-lubricated. No

oiling is required.

. Check other circulators in the system. Oil any circulators requiring

oil, following circulator manufacturer’s instructions. Over-oiling

will damage the circulator.

Start-up . . .

1. Perform all start-up procedures in Section

7

of this manual.

. Verify

cold fill pressure

is correct and that fill system is working

properly.

3. Verify

antifreeze level

(if used) is at the right concentration and

that inhibitor level is correct.

4.

Check gas piping

per manual Sections

5

and

7a

, verifying no

indications of leakage and all piping and connections are in good
condition.

5. Read the appropriate

Operating instructions

(Section

9c

of this

manual or on boiler label) applying to the boiler.

6. Start the boiler following the appropriate

Operating instructions

(Section

9c

of this manual or on boiler label).
