WARNING NOTES FOR THE USER HOW TO USE THE BURNER SAFELY
FOREWORD
These warning notes are aimed at ensuring the safe use of the compo-
nents of heating systems for civil use and the production of hot water.
They indicate how to act to avoid the essential safety of the components
being compromised by incorrect or erroneous installation and by improper
or unreasonable use. The warning notes provided in this guide also seek
to make the consumer more aware of safety problems in general, using
necessarily technical but easily understood language. The manufacturer
is not liable contractually or extra contractually for any damage caused
by errors in installation and in use, or where there has been any failure to
follow the manufacturer's instructions.
GENERAL WARNING NOTES
• The instruction booklet is an integral and essential part of the product
and must be given to the user. Carefully read the warnings in the bo-
E
oklet as they contain important information regarding safe installation,
use and maintenance. Keep the booklet to hand for consultation when
N
needed.
• Equipment must be installed in accordance with current regulations,
G
with the manufacturer's instructions and by qualifi ed technicians. By
the term 'qualifi ed technicians' is meant persons that are competent in
L
the fi eld of heating components for civil use and for the production of
hot water and, in particular, assistance centres authorised by the manu-
I
facturer. Incorrect installation may cause damage or injury to persons,
animals or things. The manufacturer will not in such cases be liable.
S
• After removing all the packaging make sure the contents are complete
and intact. If in doubt do not use the equipment and return it to the
H
supplier. The packaging materials (wooden crates, nails, staples, plastic
bags, expanded polystyrene, etc.) must not be left within reach of chil-
dren as they may be dangerous to them. They should also be collected
and disposed on in suitably prepared places so that they do no pollute
the environment.
• Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance, switch off the equi-
pment at the mains supply, using the system's switch or shut-off sy-
stems.
• If there is any fault or if the equipment is not working properly, de-ac-
tivate the equipment and do not attempt to repair it or tamper with it
directly. In such case get in touch with only qualifi ed technicians. Any
product repairs must only be carried out by BALTUR authorised assi-
stance centres using only original spare parts. Failure to act as above
may jeopardise the safety of the equipment. To ensure the effi ciency
and correct working of the equipment, it is essential to have periodic
maintenance carried out by qualifi ed technicians following the manufac-
turer's instructions.
• If the equipment is sold or transferred to another owner or if the owner
moves and leaves the equipment, make sure that the booklet always
goes with the equipment so it can be consulted by the new owner and/
or installer.
• For all equipment with optionals or kits (including electrical), only origi-
nal accessories must be used.
BURNERS
• This equipment must be used only for its expressly stated use: applied
to boilers, hot air boilers, ovens or other similar equipment and not
exposed to atmospheric agents. Any other use must be regarded as
improper use and hence dangerous.
• The burner must be installed in a suitable room that has ventilation in
accordance with current regulations and in any case suffi cient to ensure
correct combustion
• Do not obstruct or reduce the size of the burner' air intake grills or the
ventilation openings for the room where a burner or a boiler is installed
or dangerous mixtures of toxic and explosive gases may form.
• Before connecting the burner check that the details on the plate corre-
spond to those of the utility supplies (electricity, gas, light oil or other
fuel).
• Do not touch hot parts of the burner. These, normally in the areas near
to the fl ame and any fuel pre-heating system, become hot when the
equipment is working and stay hot for some time after the burner has
stopped.
• If it is decided not to use the burner any more, the following actions must
be performed by qualifi ed technicians:
a) Switch off the electrical supply by disconnecting the power cable from
the master switch.
b) Cut off the fuel supply using the shut-off valve and remove the control
wheels from their position.
c) Render harmless any potentially dangerous parts.
Special warning notes
• Check that the person who carried out the installation of the burner fi xed
it securely to the heat generator so that the fl ame is generated inside
the combustion chamber of the generator itself.
• Before starting up the burner, and at least once a year, have qualifi ed
technicians perform the following operations:
a) Set the burner fuel capacity to the power required by the heat ge-
nerator.
b) Adjust the combustion air fl ow to obtain combustion yield of at least
the minimum set by current regulations.
c) Carry out a check on combustion to ensure the production of no-
xious or polluting unburnt gases does not exceed limits permitted
by current regulations.
d) Check the adjustment and safety devices are working properly.
e) Check the effi ciency of the combustion products exhaust duct.
f) Check at the end of the adjustments that all the adjustment devices
mechanical securing systems are properly tightened.
g) Make sure that the use and maintenance manual for the burner is
in the boiler room.
• If the burner repeatedly stops in lock-out, do not keep trying to manually
reset but call a qualifi ed technicians to sort out the problem.
• The running and maintenance of the equipment must only be carried
out by qualifi ed technicians, in compliance with current regulations.
