FLEXIBLE COUPLING, CONNECTORS AND CASTERS
If the unit is to be installed with flexible coupling and/or quick-disconnect fittings, the installer must use a heavy duty, commercial
flexible connector at least 3/4" NPT (with suitable strain relief) in compliance with the standard for connectors for movable
appliances, ANSI X21.69-1987 and Addenda, Z2.169a-1989 (or latest edition) or, connectors for movable appliances, CAN/CGA-6.16
(or latest edition) and a quick-disconnect device must comply with the standard quick-disconnect devices for use with gas fuel,
ANSI Z21.41-1989 (or latest edition) or quick-disconnect devices for use with gas fuel, CAN1-6.9 (or latest edition). Adequate
means must be provided to limit the movement of the appliance. Domestic connectors are not suitable!
When a Heavy Duty Range is supplied on casters and is connected to the supply piping by means of a connector for movable
appliances, and if disconnecting the restraint is necessary, this restraint must be reconnected after the appliance is returned to its
original installation position. The strain relief is a cable attached to the Heavy Duty Range back panel near the bottom.
TESTING GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM
1. The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressure in excess of 1/2 psi (3.45 kPa).
2. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the individual manual shut-off
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system.
FLUE CONNECTIONS
DO NOT obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue duct. It is recommended that the flue gases to be ventilated to the outside
of the building through a ventilation system installed by qualified personnel. A minimum of 18" (45 cm) must be maintained between
the grease removal tray and the cooking surface.
INSTALLATION - GAS STANDARDS AND CODES
1.
A manual gas shut-off valve must be installed in the gas supply (service) line ahead of both the appliance and gas pressure
regulator in the gas stream for safety and ease of future maintenance/service.
2.
The gas pressure regulator supplied with the appliance must be installed prior to connecting the equipment to the gas supply
line. Failure to install a regulator will void the equipment warranty and result in a potentially hazardous condition
