MANUAL SHUT OFF VALVE

A manual shut off valve should be installed
upstream from the union and within 6 feet
(1.829m) of this appliance.

GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR

A convertible pressure regulator is provided with
each griddle. It should be connected to the inlet
pipe at the rear of the unit. The gas supply line is
then connected to it. It is shipped set for 6"
(15.24cm) water column manifold pressure for
use with natural gas.

GAS PIPING

Gas piping shall be of such size and so installed as
to provide a supply of gas sufficient to meet the
full gas input of the appliance. If the appliance is to
be connected to existing piping, it shall be checked
to determine if it has adequate capacity. Joint
compound (pipe dope) shall be used sparingly and
only on the male threads of the pipe joints. Such
compounds shall be resistant to the action of L.P.
gases. To connect to gas supply, attach pipe nipple
provided with unit, attach pressure regulator to
nipple, and gas supply to regulator. WARNING:
Any loose dirt or metal particles which are
allowed to enter the gas lines on this appliance will
damage the valve and affect its operation. When
installing this appliance, all pipe and fittings must be
free from loose dirt.

CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS

Soap and water solution or other material
acceptable for the purpose, shall be used in
locating gas leakage. Matches, candle flame or
other sources of ignition shall not be used for this
purpose. Check entire piping system for leaks.

column. A 1/8" pipe plug on the supply pipe can
be removed for attaching a pressure gauge.
Remove the slotted, or hex-threaded, plug
from the pressure regulator.  Invert the plug
and re-install.  The letters "LP" should now be
visible on the plug.  The regulator is now set
for 10" (25.4 cm) water column.
