Installation instructions
Never install an old connector on a new appliance. For hard piping, you need to carefully
align the pipe; the appliance cannot be moved after the connection is made.
To prevent gas leaks, apply pipe-joint compound or wrap pipe-thread tape with Teflon on
all male (external) pipe threads.
1.
Attach the provided gas-pressure regulator to the rangetop pipe nipple inlet. (For
tight installations, the regulator may be installed upstream from the nipple, anywhere
between the shut-off valve and the rangetop. For best performance, minimize gas-
pressure loss by attaching the regulator as close as possible to the gas inlet.
2.
Complete the connection by installing a flexible gas line between the pressure
regulator and the shut-off valve.
