being supplied before connecting the quick-disconnect
device or piping from the gas supply line.
9. Refer to the table below to verify the minimum and
maximum gas supply pressures for the type of gas being
used.
Standard for Incoming Gas Pressures
Gas Minimum Maximum
Natural 6.0” WC
1.62 kPa
16.19 mbar
14” WC
3.48 kPa
34.87 mbar
Propane 11” WC
2.74 kPa
27.37 mbar
14” WC
3.48 kPa
34.87 mbar
Connection to Gas Line
The Pasta Magic family of gas cookers has been approved for
use with natural and propane (LP) gas.
The size of the gas line used for installation is very important.
If the line is too small, the gas pressure at the burner
manifold will be low. This may cause slow recovery and
delayed ignition. Garland recommends the incoming gas
supply line be a minimum of 1 ½” (38mm) in diameter. Refer
to the chart below for the minimum sizes of connection
piping.
Gas Connection Pipe Sizes
(Minimum incoming pipe size should be 1½” (38 mm))
Gas Single Unit 2-3 Units
Natural ¾” (19 mm) 1” (25 mm)
Propane ½” (13 mm) ¾” (19 mm)
Note:
For distances of more than 20 feet (6m) and/or
more than four fittingsor elbows, increase the connection
by one pipe size.
Before connecting new pipe to your unit, the pipe must be
thoroughly blown out to remove any foreign particles. If
these foreign particles get into the burner and controls, they
will cause improper and sometimes dangerous operation.
1. Connect the quick-disconnect hose to the cooker quick-
disconnect fitting at the rear of the cooker and to the
building gas line.
NOTE: Some cookers are configured for a rigid
connection to the gas supply line. These units must
be connected to the gas supply line at the rear of the
unit using fittings approved for that purpose by the
appropriate regulatory agency of the country in which
the appliance is installed.
4. For units equipped with basket lifts, install the basket lift
arms onto the rods (located at the top rear of the cabinet)
to ensure that the lift arms are guided by the basket lift
rollers.
5. Connect the water supply to the faucet and, on units with
the autofill option, the water solenoid valve. (The valve is
located on the lower frame behind the doorpost.)
,
CAUTION
Before connecting the water supply to units equipped
with solenoid valves, purge the water line to ensure
there is no trash in the line.
DANGER
The maximum allowable incoming water pressure to the
regulator for all units is 80 PSI (56.3 kg/cm2).
The maximum allowable incoming water temperature
for all units is 180°F (82°C).
NOTE:
Either hot or cold water supplies may be
connected to the water solenoid valve. However,
connecting to a hot water supply will minimize the
amount of time required to attain operating temperature
when filling the cooker with fresh water.
NOTE: In order for the water level sensors to work
properly, a certain amount of mineral content is
necessary in the water. For that reason, purified,
deionized, or highly filtered water should not be used.
6. Connect the desired drain plumbing to the 1¼–inch
drain valve. NOTE: Ensure drain plumbing is connected
in accordance with local codes. Waste water from the
water bath unit should not be discharged directly below
the appliance. Rising steam can harm the cabinet and the
electrical components.
7. Test the cooker electrical system:
a. Plug the cooker electrical cord into a grounded
electrical receptacle of appropriate voltage. (Check
the rating plate on the cooker door to determine the
proper voltage).
b. Place the power switch in the
ON
position and verify
that the display indicates
LO
.
c. Place the cooker power switch in the
OFF
position.
Verify that the display is blank.
8. Refer to the rating plate on the inside of the cooker door
to verify that the cooker is configured for the type of gas
