INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR OPTIONAL SHIELD REQUIRED
FOR COMBUSTIBLE FLOOR
This shield for combustible floors is intended for use only with the following New Yorker oil-fired boilers:
Use Part Number 6183504 for the following models:
AP-110U AP-154U
ADDS 4-3/16” TO BOILER HEIGHT
1. Place shield on combustible floor with “TOP”
surface upward and “FRONT” surface directly
below the expected position of the oil burner.
2. Locate shield such that clearances to combustible
walls are as indicated in Figure 2-2. These
dimensions will assure that the boiler jacket will be
at least 18” from the side and rear walls and 48”
from the front wall, as required by ANSI/NFPA 31.
3. Fasten shield to combustible floor to keep shield
from shifting position during setting of boiler.
4. Set boiler squarely on top of shield such that
base plate of boiler rests flat on top surface of
shield and does not over-hang shield on any side.
Confirm clearance to combustible walls. Refer to
Figure 2-1.
5. DO NOT enclose boiler (including shield) on all
four sides. Boiler may be enclosed on any three
sides while maintaining minimum clearances
shown in Figure 2-1 for each of those three sides.
