OPTIONAL GA9053A SERIES ON/OFF
SAFETY VALVE/PILOT KIT ASSEMBLY
For additional convenience and safety, or for propane/LP conver-
sion, an optional ON/OFF safety valve/pilot kit is available. See
Accessories, page 22.
WARNING: You must use a ON/OFF safety valve/
pilot kit for propane/LP conversion.
Natural Gas Installation
1.
Thread the gas control valve onto the close pipe nipple (see
Figure 11). Use thread sealant on the male threads of the fit-
ting. Thread other end of the nipple into the burner manifold
block. Hold the manifold block with a wrench to prevent stress-
ing the connections to the burners. Make sure the control rod
is facing the front (see Figure 11).
2.
Attach the pilot gas line to the pilot outlet of the gas control
valve and tighten. Connect the thermocouple to the rear of the
gas control valve (see Figure 12). Do not overtighten (finger-
tight plus 1/4 turn). If using propane/LP gas, see Changing Pi-
lot Orifice, page 12.
3.
Install the inlet fitting into the inlet opening of the gas control
valve (see Figure 13). Use thread sealant on the male pipe threads.
4.
Thread the gas supply fitting to the fireplace gas supply pipe (see
Figure 10). Adjust to most convenient position.
5.
Install the gas flex line to the gas supply fitting. Carefully shape
tube to attach to adapter fitting.
