thermocouple or safety magnet.
TESTING THE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM
When gas supply pressure exceeds
1
/
2
psig (3.45 kPa), the range and its individual shutoff valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply piping system.
When gas supply pressure is
1
/
2
psig (3.45 kPa) or less, the range should be isolated from the gas supply
system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve until the range is ready for start-up.
FLUE CONNECTIONS
DO NOT
obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue located on the rear of the range. It is recommended
that the flue gases be ventilated to the outside of the building through a ventilation system installed by
qualified personnel.
From the termination of the flue to the filters of the hood venting system, a minimum clearance of 18"
(457 mm) must be maintained.
Information on the construction and installation of ventilating hoods may be obtained from the standard
for the "Removal of Vapors from Commercial Cooking Equipment”, NFPA No. 96 (latest edition),
available from The National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269.
