The installation of this gas range must conform with the local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the 
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1- “Latest Edition” in the U.S.A.

 

The installation of this gas range in a manufactured (mobile) home must conform with the Manufactured 
Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 HUD (Part 280) or, when such standard is not applicable, the 
Standard for Manufactured Home Installations ANSI A225.1/NFPA 501A or with local codes. 
The inlet pipe connection is a ½” National Pipe Tread.  The gas connection can be made using an AGA or 
CGA design certified flex connector as illustrated below. 
NOTE: When installed in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts the Flexible Connector used to supply gas to 
the range 

must not exceed 36 inches in length

 and a 

T-Handle Gas Shutoff is required. 

 WARNING:  A MANUAL SHUT-OFF VALVE 

MUST BE INSTALLED IN AN ACCESSIBLE LOCA-
TION IN THE GAS LINE, EXTERNAL TO THE UNIT, 
FOR THE PURPOSE OF TURNING ON OR SHUT-
TING OFF GAS TO THE UNIT.  THE CONSUMER 
MUST KNOW HOW AND WHERE TO SHUT OFF 

 WARNING:  TO AVOID THE RISK OF A GAS 

LEAK OR FIRE, USE ONLY A NEW FLEXIBLE CON-
NECTOR THAT HAS BEEN DESIGN CERTIFIED BY 
AGA OR CGA.  DO NOT REUSE AN OLD CONNEC-
TOR IF YOU MOVE THE APPLIANCE. 

 WARNING:  DO NOT ALLOW THE REGULATOR 

TO TURN ON THE PIPE WHEN TIGHTENING FIT-
TINGS. 

 

 WARNING:  USE AN APPROVED SEALING COMPOUND THAT IS RESISTANT TO THE AC-

GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR 

This gas range is equipped with a convertible gas regulator that is adjusted at the factory for use with natural 
gas with 5 inches water column pressure at the outlet side of the regulator.  With the regulator adjusted for 
use with liquefied petroleum gas (propane), the pressure at the outlet side of the regulator is 10” water col-
umn. 
When checking the pressure regulator setting, the inlet pressure to the regulator must be at least 6 inches wa-
ter column for natural gas and 11 inches water column for liquefied petroleum gas (propane).  

The maxi-

mum inlet pressure to the regulator is 14 inches water column for natural or L.P. (propane) gases.
