supply side.
2. Recommended: Install a shut-off valve on
gas supply side before installing the socket.
3. Socket should be installed by an authorized
technician in accordance with the national fuel gas
code (NFPA 54/ANSI223.1).
4. Before inserting plug, turn on gas supply and leak
test all connections including the stem of the shut-off
valve and the opening of the socket. For best results,
