INSTALLATION & SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS:
It is advised that more than one person is
involved in the transfer of the packaged appli-
ance from the van to the point of installation.
It is advised that no attempt should be made to
move the packaged appliance without the use of
a suitable truck.
At all times the correct method for handling
heavy objects should be strictly observed.
GENERAL HANDLING GUIDELINES:
• Lift only a manageable weight, or ask for
help.
• When lifting, bend the knees, and keep the
back straight and feet apart.
• Do not lift and twist at the same time.
• Lift and carry items close to the body.
• Wear protective clothing and gloves to
protect from any sharp edges.
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION.
THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE APPLICABLE TO THE WORCESTER APPLIANCE MODEL(S)
STATED ON THE FRONT COVER OF THIS MANUAL ONLY AND MUST NOT BE USED WITH
ANY OTHER MAKE OR MODEL OF APPLIANCE.
THE INSTRUCTIONS APPLY IN THE UK AND EIRE ONLY AND MUST BE FOLLOWED
EXCEPT FOR ANY STATUTORY OBLIGATION.
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE INSTALLED BY A COMPETENT PERSON. FAILURE TO INSTALL
CORRECTLY COULD LEAD TO PROSECUTION.
COMPLYING WITH THE BUILDING REGULATIONS:
This heating appliance forms part of the controlled services for the building. It is law that all controlled
services for buildings must comply with building regulations. You must be able to satisfy your Local
Authority Building Control Body (LABC) that the work carried out concerning the installation and
commissioning of this heating appliance has been carried out to a satisfactory standard.
OFTEC operate a competent persons scheme and registered installers are able to certify that their
work complies with building regulations. Under the scheme;
OFTEC must be informed about every installation.
OFTEC will issue a building regulations compliance certificate to the householder and will
notify the LABC.
OFTEC provide controlled document forms CD10 and CD11 for use during installation and
commissioning respectively.
Other organisations operate self-certification schemes e.g. NAPIT and BESCA Ltd. and it may be
possible for installers who are members of these organisations to self certify their work.
Alternatively you must submit a building control notice to the LABC before installing any boiler. The
LABC will then arrange regular inspection visits during the work to ensure that the installation
complies with the regulations.
IF YOU ARE IN ANY DOUBT CONTACT THE WORCESTER TECHNICAL HELPLINE.
DISTANCE LEARNING AND TRAINING COURSES ARE AVAILABLE FROM WORCESTER.
PLEASE LEAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS WITH THE COMPLETED COMMISSIONING FORM
AND THE USER MANUAL WITH THE OWNER OR WITH THE APPLIANCE AFTER
INSTALLATION OR SERVICING. THE SERVICE INTERVAL RECORD CAN BE FOUND ON
THE BACK PAGE OF THIS MANUAL.

PRE -
INSTALLATION
BEFORE CLEANING THE SYSTEM:
ENSURE THE SYSTEM AND PIPEWORK IS
IN GOOD WORKING ORDER.
FLUSH THE EXISTING SYSTEM WITH A
POWER FLUSHING MACHINE OR WITH A
CHEMICAL CLEANER BEFORE
INSTALLING NEW COMPONENTS.
CLEANING THE PRIMARY SYSTEM:
Cleanse the system in accordance with
BS 7593.
Fill the system with cold mains water to the
recommended pressure and check for leaks.
Open all drain cocks and drain the system.
Close drain cocks and add a suitable flushing
agent at the correct strength for the system
condition in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
Circulate the flushing agent before the boiler
is fired up.
Run the boiler and system at normal operating
temperature in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
Drain and thoroughly flush the system to
remove the flushing agent and any debris.
IMPORTANT: Debris from the system can
damage the boiler and reduce efficiency.
Failure to comply with the guidelines for
the use of water treatment with the
appliance will invalidate the appliance
warranty.

OIL SUPPLY
OIL SUPPLY :
•This appliance is suitable for kerosene (28
second oil) only, no other fuel must be used.
• Plastic or steel tanks should be installed to
BS 5410. A steel tank should conform to
BS 799: part 5 and have a slope of 1 in 24
away from the outlet valve with a sludge cock
at its lower end.
• Do not use galvanised steel tanks or
pipework for the oil supply system.
• Do not use soldered joints on the oil
supply pipework.
a) Single pipe gravity feed system:
The oil storage tank (A) must be positioned so
that the oil level does not exceed 4 metres above
the level of the burner oil pump (J) and in addi-
tion the oil level must be at least 300mm above
the oil pump (J). Where the maximum oil level in
the oil storage tank exceeds 4 metres, a head
breaking device must be installed between the
tank (A) and the burner oil pump (J).
b) Double pipe sub-gravity feed system:
Maximum suction height 3.5 metres. Non-return
valves must be fitted to the inlet and return oil line
between the oil pump (J) and oil storage tank (A).
c) Single pipe suction lift with de-aerator
Maximum suction height 3.5 metres. The oil
tank (A) must be positioned below the oil pump
(J). Create an inlet and return loop between the
de-aerator (M) and oil pump (J).
A non-return valve must be incorporated within
the de-aerator or fitted to the oil line between
the oil storage tank (A) and the de-aerator (M).
A top feed oil tank fitted with a de-aerator
using an internal non-return valve should have
any non-return valves fitted in the base of the
tank to the suction line removed to assist
purging air from the oil line.
Pipework
Use copper pipe of the correct diameter
according to the information shown opposite.
Use flexible hoses to connect to the oil pump (J).
Lay the oil supply pipe (H) as straight and
level as possible to avoid air pockets and
unnecessary friction losses. Route away
from the boiler access door or other hot
surfaces.
Install a manual isolating valve (B) to the oil
supply pipe (H), as close to the oil storage
tank (A) as possible.
Fit an oil strainer and water separator (C) to
the oil supply pipe, near the oil storage tank.
Fit an additional oil filter (N, 16µmmax
filtration size) close to the boiler, but not
inside the boiler casing.
Fit a fire valve in accordance with BS 5410.
The fire valve (D) should be fitted externally
to the building with the fire valve sensor (F)
located within the appliance case.
A fire valve with a shut off temperature of
85°C or higher must be fitted to avoid
the possibility of nuisance shut offs.
A capillary type valve provides a neat and
simple installation. Alternatively, a fusible
link or electrical system may be used.
Under no circumstances should a
combination isolating/fire valve be used
as the sole fire protection device.
