Gas Supply Connection
The gas supply line connection is made to the left side of
the front-mounted valve. The gas supply line should be
3/8” npt with a 1/2” diameter supply, or the appropriate
size to provide sufficient gas pressure to the valve regard-
less of the input setting.
The use of Flexible Gas Appliance Connectors is ac-
ceptable in many areas in the U.S. However, Canadian
methods vary depending on local code.
ALL INSTALLATIONS MUST COMPLY WITH LOCAL CODE
OR IN THE ABSENCE OF LOCAL CODE, MUST COMPLY WITH
THE MOST RECENT EDITION OF THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS
CODE ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 OR CAN-B149.
All codes require a gas shut-off valve (gas cock) and
union, to be installed in the supply line, and in the same
room as the appliance. This allows for the disconnection
of the stove for servicing and maintenance. See fig. 18.
A T-HANDLE GAS COCK IS REQUIRED IN
MASSACHUSETTS TO COMPLY WITH CODE 248CMR.
Secure all joints tightly using appropriate tools and
sealing compounds. For propane units be sure to use com-
pounds that are propane resistant. Turn on gas supply and
test for gas leaks using a soapy water solution.
Never use
an open flame to check for leaks.
15. Install the new regulator: Be sure the new gasket is
properly positioned and tighten screws securely.
16.
Install the identification labels to the stove so
that they can be seen by any person that may be ser-
vicing the stove.
Label A: apply to back of stove.
Label B: apply to stove’s rating plate.
Small valve Label: apply to valve.
17. Reassemble the stove, apply gas to the system and
check for leaks using a soapy water solution.
NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
18. Correct gas pressure is essential for efficient and safe
operation of this appliance. Use a manometer to check
pressures as specified in the Gas Pressure section of
this manual (page 15).
19. Adjust the Air Shutter. You will need to position the
shutter to provide a gas/air mixture that will achieve
the best flame picture with your particular installation.
Start with the shutter stem at the half-way position in
the slot in the bottom of the stove. See fig. 12. Pushing
the stem back will restrict air, while pushing it for-
ward will open the shutter and increase air. With some
experimentation, you will find the shutter position that
works best for your installation.
ALWAYS REFER TO THE LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS ON THE
INSIDE BACK COVER OF THIS MANUAL WHEN LIGHTING
YOUR STOVE.
