boiler problems

Hi All,
I am new to this list so bear with me. I just installed a "rebuilt" STEWART WARNER boiler and radiators to replace a hot air furnace. It works very well except that if I have had the house at say 70 and go away for a while turning the heat down to say 62 the boiler will shut down. If I go to the boiler and hit the reset button it fires up immediatly with no grumbling at all. I have replaced the tank filter and checked all my fuel fittings. Any one have any ideas?
thanks, tom

hi limit?
The Hi Limit may be over riding operator & shutting down. Check high limit setting & ensure it is above operator target by 20F. (I am assuming that it is the high limit that you are resetting)
