    I have an RDB Riello Boiler. Stupidly let it run out of oil now airlocked.

    I read another post on this here but can't find it.

    I decided to put up a photo to make sure I am doing this right plus if others need to use the photo to help them its useful.

    So I presume that the brass fitting is where you bleed from?

    The process is

    1. Set the reset button
    2. Open the valve allowing the oil to come through (catch oil in pan or cloth) The oil is pink in colour?
    3. Wait until the bubbles seems to be out of th oil and the oil burner kicks in?

    Am I correct?

    Help much appreciated.
