Gas Connection
Verify the type of gas supply to be used, either natural or LP/Propane and make sure the marking on the wok/cooker
rating plate agrees with that of the supply. Never connect an unregulated gas line to the appliance. An installer
supplier gas shut-off valve must be installed in an easily accessible location. All installer supplied parts must conform
to local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-latest edition. Installation
in Canada must be in accordance with the current CAN/CGA-B149.1, Natural Gas Installation Code or CAN/CGA-
B149.2, Propane Installation Code and/or local codes. All connectors need to comply with ANSI Z21.75/ CSA 6.27.
When using semi-ridged tubing, aluminum or aluminum alloy tubing is not permitted.
All pipe sealants must be an approved type and resistant to the actions of LP gases. Never use pipe sealant on flare
fittings. All gas connections should be made by a competent technician and in accordance with local codes and/or
ordinances. In the absence of local codes, the installation must comply with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSIZ223.1-
latest edition.
The wok/cooker and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa). The wok/cooker must be isolated from
the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of that system
at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa). Built-in installations must be plumbed using a fixed/hard line if
the unit is going to be operated at a distance exceeding 3 feet (0.91 meters) from the fuel supply per ANSI
Z21.24/CSA 6.10
