Glow-worm 45-60 B boiler specs and help turning on heating without timer

[Manchester#1]

Hi,

I own a Glow-worm 45/60 B boiler, but I'm unsure whether it's a system or standard boiler. I've looked online, but all I find is information about the space saver version. however, the details on the place card attached to the boiler seem to be somewhat different.

Additionally, my analogue timer is no longer functioning. I'm curious if there's a way to manually activate my central heating and hot water without relying on the timer.

Hi,

I appreciate the information about the boiler being a standard boiler, as opposed to a systems boiler. Regarding the timer/clock, although there is a continuous option, it seems to be malfunctioning and not registering any changes. If it were stuck in the 'on' position, I could have relied on the boiler thermostat to control the heating. However, since it remains unresponsive whether set to off or continuous, I'm wondering if there's an alternative method to activate the heating without using the clock?
