(model 120A shown) WELCOME TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMER You are now the owner of a Slant/Fin Bobcat series gas-fired boiler, another quality heating product designed and manufactured by an industry leader, to provide your family with many years of reliable comfort and trouble-free performance. The care and maintenance of your new boiler is important to prevent a hazardous condition which might result form lack of proper servicing. Therefore, you should perform regular “owner” inspections as described in this manual (and report any concerns to a qualified service technician) as well as have your boiler serviced by a qualified service technician at least once a year, preferably before the beginning of each heating season. LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS Locate, read and then follow the procedures on the lighting instructions label attached to the boiler. For reference, we have reproduced those instructions in this manual. DO NOT use this boiler if any part has been underwater. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the boiler and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been underwater. WARNING Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, DO NOT turn off or disconnect the electric supply to the circulator pump. Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location EXTERNAL to the appliance. WARNING SLANT/FIN DOES NOT PERMIT THE USE OF VENT DAMPERS ON BOBCAT B-120 or B-200 SERIES BOILERS. OTHER DAMPERS OR DEVICES WITH SIMILAR PURPOSE ARE NOT PERMITTED. Keep the boiler area clean and free of all materials that can burn. NEVER close or reduce openings that supply air for the boiler fire and for ventilation. Bobcat Model B-120A and B-200A 3 INSPECTION Your boiler and heating system will last an indefinitely long time at full efficiency, if it is inspected regularly and is kept in good repair and adjustment. You, the user, should make regular inspections, and report any problems to your service agency. At regular intervals, you should have that agency inspect the system and make repair adjustments as necessary. What you and the service agency should do is listed below. Contact your gas supplier for a list of qualified service and repair agencies. USER INSPECTION The user should make the following inspections at least once each month during the heating season and once just before cold weather starts. Bobcat B-120 and B-200 boilers may be installed and vented either as direct-vent boiler, which all air for combustion is obtained directly from outside through the air intake piping or as non-directvent boiler, which all air for combustion is taken from inside the boiler room. Typical direct-vent installations are shown on Figures 2 and 3. Non-direct-vent installation is shown on Figures 4, 5 and 6. 1. VENTING AND AIR INTAKE SYSTEM REGULAR INSPECTION Inspect the system regularly for condensation, corrosion, sagging and/or physical damage. A qualified professional should service the boiler annually and include such an inspection at that time. The homeowner should look over the system monthly for damage, water stains, any signs of rust, other corrosions or separation of the vent and air intake piping (if direct-vent). Should an inspection turn up signs of condensation, corrosion, sagging or damage, the boiler should be shut down immediately and the condition should be corrected by a qualified professional. If the boiler is vented horizontally through the wall, the outside termination, louvers and screen should be checked for any debris blocking the opening and cleaned as required.

Bobcat Model B-120A and B-200A CONDENSATE TRAP, FILLED WITH WATER 6 DRAIN VACUUM BREAKER, LEAVE OPEN CONDENSATE PUMP (IF REQUIRED) NEUTRALIZING UNIT (IF REQUIRED) DRAIN INSIDE BUILDING PLASTIC TUBING Figure 7. Condensate disposal system 2. CONDENSATE REMOVAL SYSTEM The Bobcat B-120 and B-200 boilers are equipped with a built-in condensation drain and trap. The trap must be filled with water. DO NOT operate the boiler without filling the trap with water to prevent flue gas discharge into space. Periodic inspection should be made of this assembly for deterioration of the tubing and to insure that the trap is not plugged. If it is plugged or appears to have excessive sediment in it, it should be removed from the drain assembly, straightened out to clear the obstruction, reformed, filled with water and reinstalled as before. (See Figure 7). Leave the top of the condensate drain tee open, to act as a vacuum breaker. Do not allow any part of the condensate removal system to be exposed to freezing temperatures, or any other conditions that could cause blockage. If a neutralizing system is installed, the filter medium will require periodic changing, to ensure it’s effectiveness. Refer to the neutralizing unit’s manufacturers instructions, if available, or change the medium on an annual basis. 3. PIPING INSPECTION Look at all water piping. There should be no leaks or signs of leaks at any pipe joints or around the boiler. about 12 to 15 psi pressure when temperature is about 70 to 100F and from 15 psi to 25 psi when temperature is up to 195˚F. FOR YOUR SYSTEM, there is one correct pressure for each temperature. ASK YOUR INSTALLER OR SERVICEPERSON TO EXPLAIN AND SHOW YOU. Learn what normal pressure to look for. If pressure increases from normal, the relief valve will open to relieve the pressure. Call your service organization if pressures are higher or lower than normal, and if the relief valve spills water. Repair or adjustment is needed. 5. UNUSUAL NOISE Stand near the boiler and look and listen. As the burner start and shut off, there should be no unusual noise. 6. BOILER ROOM AIR SUPPLY Ample boiler room fresh air is required for combustion (non-direct vent installation) and ventilation (direct-vent installation). Check air vents for continues positive supply of air as required. Air needs are greatest in cold weather if boiler installation is non-direct vent method. Air vents must be open and free of obstruction. Warning: The flow of combustion and ventilating air to the boiler should not be obstructed. 4. SYSTEM WATER PRESSURE INSPECTION Warning: If you find any problem during your inspection, call The boiler water pressure is indicated on the pressure gage (See Figure 1 for location). The boiler water outlet temperature is normally indicated on the temperature display (See Figure 1 for location and Figure 9 for digits illustration). For most installations, it should indicate for service immediately. Bobcat Model B-120A and B-200A 7 The combustion air supply must not be susceptible to contaminants, which may cause corrosion or other damage to the heat exchanger and components of the boiler, causing failure of these parts or unsafe operation. Below is a list of products which must be avoided from being stored or entering the boiler room or air supply area: PRODUCTS TO AVOID • • • • • • • • • • • • • Spray cans containing chloro/fluorocarbons Permanent wave solutions Chlorinated waxes/cleaners Chlorine-based swimming pool chemicals Calcium chloride used for thawing Sodium chloride used for water softening Refrigerant leaks Paint or varnish removers Hydrochloric acid/muriatic acid Cements and glues Antistatic fabric softeners used in clothes dryers Chlorine-type bleaches, detergents and cleaning solvents found in household laundry rooms.
