STEP 1 - Float Removal and Replacement

a. Turn power off to boiler and all controls.

Allow boiler to cool to 80˚F (27˚C) and
reduce the pressure to 0 psi (0 bar).

Drain water in the boiler to a level that is
below the float chamber.

b. Remove Head Assembly

• Remove screws (

A) and lift off

switch cover.

• Identify

terminal connections for

rewiring and then disconnect all wires
from

terminal panels.

• Remove head bolts. Carefully remove

head assembly from control body.

• Carefully place

head assembly in vice

where replacement work can be
performed more conveniently.

c. Remove and Replace Float

• While securely holding the

arm or mounting

block, where indicated in the diagram
above, unscrew

float ball from the assembly

Holding the arm or mounting block reduces
the risk of damaging the bellows from
unnatural stresses.

• Screw new float onto assembly.

On model 64 units, be sure the float stop
bracket is in proper position.

There may be more than one source of
power to the boiler.
