Problem next to my grease burner, Please Help!!!? Hi, I live in a rural location and we hold an oil burner...
Hi,
I live in a rural location and we hold an oil burner that uses kerosene to steam water for our heat and hot water. We run out of oil completely yesterday and we own just get it filled up but it won't start up again??!! We turned it past its sell-by date and I think it wishes to be fired up but not sure how. Does anyone know how to do it?
Thanks
Answers: You need to bleed your burner , I am going to assume you hold a Riello burner as these are very popular contained by kerosene burners, after taking of the cover of the burner look out for a long heagonal screw not unlike a brass pencil . with a spanner loosen this screw , don't give somebody a lift it out , as its hart to get final in ,press the red reset button , and you should hear nouns coming out , when you see oil tighten the screw and tour contented , if the red reset comes on , wait 3 Min's and repeat, best of luck and hope you seize it sorted.
Ok i looked up your boiler and you dont have the burner i stated , you enjoy a combi boiler , if you can follow where the grease line comes into the boiler it should mix a flexible metal hose after a safety spigot , follow this hose into the oil pump on the burner , using a spanner and lossen the flexi hose nearby, when you see oil ( after a gush of nouns ) tighten the hose back , turn on the boiler and press the the reset button , a white button on a clear plastic box , next to electronic compents in it , hope fully this will do the trick. your leading problem is that when your oil run out the pump on the burner sucked air into the grease line , you immediately have to gain the air out.
the grease line wishes to be bled,look for details in commissioning screened-off area of the manual.
