DO NOT use this boiler if any part has been

underwater. Immediately call a qualified serv-

ice technician to inspect the boiler and to

replace any part of the control system and

any gas control which has been underwater.

PURPOSE ARE NOTPERMITTED.

WELCOME TOOUR VALUED CUSTOMER

You are now the owner of a Slant/Fin Victory II

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 newboiler is

important to prevent a hazardous condition which

might result from 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.

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.

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, clean

the boiler 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:

1. Venting system inspection

A. Horizontal or vertical venting inspection

All Victory II boilers maybe vented horizontally

through an outside wall (see Figure 2), through

the roof (see Figure 3) or vertically utilizing an

existing chimney as a chase (see Figure 4). In

all cases a 3" diameter AL29-4C* stainless steel

venting material MUST be used.

Inspect the system regularly for condensation,

corrosion 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 month-

ly for damage, water stains, any signs of rust,

other corrosion or separation of the flue (vent)

and fittings.

Should an inspection turn up signs of condensa-

tion, corrosion 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 and screen should

be checked for any debris blocking the opening

and cleaned as required.

B. Chimney or Type “B” venting inspection

Only models VHS-90, VHS-120, VHS-150 and

VHS-180 maybe vented directly into a chimney

with 5, 6, or 7 inch diameter standard metal smoke

pipe (galvanized). See Figure 5. Make sure pipe

joints are snug and are fastened with screws. The

chimney joint should be filled with cement to pre-

vent leakage. There should be no visible signs of

rust or salts from water evaporation.

*: AL29-4C is a registered trademark of Allegheny Ludlum Corp.

2. Condensation drain trap inspection

Check condensation drain trap to be full of water. Check

for deterioration of the tubing. Check that trap is not

plugged. DO NOT operate the boiler without filling the

trap with water to prevent flue gas discharge into space.

The drain should extend to a floor drain or to a contain-

er which may require emptying periodically.

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.

4. System water pressure inspection

The temperature and pressure gauge indicates the

pressure in the boiler at each water temperature. For

most installations, it should indicate about 12 to 15 psi

pressure when temperature is about 70 to 100° F and

from 15 psi to 25 psi when temperature is up to 240° F.

FOR YOUR SYSTEM, there is one correct pressure for

each temperature. ASK YOUR INSTALLER OR SERVI-

CEPERSON TO EXPLAIN AND SHOW YOU. Learn

what normal pressures to look for. If pressure decreas-

es from normal, your system is losing water. If pressure

rises 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 burn-

ers start and shut off, there should be no unusual noise.

No fire should be visible coming out from the front of

the boiler when the burners start or run.

6. Boiler room air supply inspection

Ample air is required for your boiler to burn fuel cleanly

and safely. Check to make sure all air vents are open

and free of obstruction. Air needs are greatest in cold

weather.

WARNING: The flow of combustion and ventilating air

to the boiler should not be obstructed.

WARNING: If you find any problem during your

inspection, call for service immediately.

ANNUAL SERVICE TECHNICIAN INSPECTION

Atrained and qualified service technician should per-

form these inspections before each heating season:

1. Safety check

Removing Control Box (cover). See Figure 6. To

remove control box:

a. Turn back screw 1/4 turn clockwise to open

position .

b. Remove two sheet metal screws in the top of control

box.

c. Remove control box.

Toreplace the box, reverse procedure. Be sure that

black screw is in the lower bracket receptacle and

lockposition .

VICTORY II VHS MODELS

Figure 6. Figure 7.

A. High limit control test

Set thermostat high enough for water tempera-

ture to reach high limit control setting of

Aquastat. When this temperature is reached, the

high limit switch should open and the main gas

valve should close automatically.

B. Gas control safety shutdown test

With main burners firing, disconnect the ignition

cable from S8600 ignitor (see Figure 9). Gas

valveshould shut off the main burners.

C. Air flow pressure switch test

With main burners firing, removeplastic hose

from Pressure Switch (see Figure 7). Gas valve

should shut off the main burners.

WARNING: If any of the above controls fail to operate

properly, they must be replaced.

D. Checking for gas leaks

Using soap solution, check for gas leaks from

meter to burner, including gas piping, manifold

and pilot burner.

DO NOT use open flame.

2. Venting system inspection

See Page 3 for instruction.

3. Condensation drain trap inspection

See page 4 for instruction.

4. Piping inspection

Check the following:

A. Water piping and accessories for leaks. Slightest

leaks should be corrected.

B. System to be full of water and pressure to

remain stable at correct setting on gauge.

C. Air-control system. Noise and air binding in radi-

ation should not occur.

D. Low water cutoff for operation (see instructions

furnished with unit).

E. Check water pressure and add water slowly to

system when needed. If much water is added,

venting may be necessary. Regular loss of water

from boiler system may indicate either a system

leak, or a faulty air control system, or a faulty

automatic fill valve.

5. Boiler room air supply inspection

Check air vents for continued positive supply of air

as required. Air needs are greatest in cold weather.

Air vents must be open and free of obstruction.

WARNING: The flowof combustion and ventilating air

to the boiler should not be obstructed.

ANNUAL SERVICE TECHNICIAN

6drops of Anderol 465 annually.

FLAME ROLL-OUT SAFETY SHUT-OFF SWITCH

All Victory II boilers are equipped with a single use

flame roll-out safety shut-off switch. It will shut off main

gas burners in the event the flow of combustion prod-

ucts through the boiler flue passages are reduced. If this

safety switch has actuated to shut off the main burners,

DO NOT attempt to place the boiler in operation, but

contact a qualified service agency.

SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Follow the lighting instructions in this manual. These

instructions are also attached to the boiler.
