Gas Connection
The gas supply (service) line must be the same size or greater than the inlet line of the appliance. This range uses a
1/2” (1.3 cm) ID NPT (Sch40) inlet. Sealant on all pipe joints must be resistive to LP gas.
1. Manual shut-off valve:
This installer-supplied valve must be installed in the gas service line ahead of the appliance in the gas stream and in a
position where it can be reached quickly in the event of an emergency. In Massachusetts: A “T” handle type manual
valve must be installed in teh gas supply line to the appliance.
2. Pressure Regulator:
a) All heavy-duty, commercial type cooking equipment must have a pressure regulator on the incoming service line for
safe and efficient operation, since service pressure may fluctuate with local demand. External regulators are not
required on this range since a regulator is built into each unit at the factory. Under no condition bypass this built-in
regulator.
b) Any conversion required must be performed by your dealer or a qualified licensed plumber or gas service company.
Please provide the service person with this manual before work begins. (Gas conversions are the responsibility of the
dealer or end user).
c) This range can be sued with Natural or LP/Propane gas. It is shipped from the factory adjusted for use with natural
gas. The orifice hoods must be screwed snug when LP/Propane is used. (See LP/Propane conversion.)
d) Manifold pressure should be checked with a manometer, natural gas requires 5.0” W.C.P. and LP gas requires 10.0”
W.C.P. Incoming line pressure upstream from the regulator must be 1” W.C.P. higher than the manifold pressure in
order to check the regulator. The regulator used on this range can withstand a maximum input pressure of 1/2” PS
(14.0” W.C.P.). If the line pressure is in excess of that amount, a step down regulator will be required.
e) The appliance, its individual shut-off valve, and pressure regulator must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa)
f) The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut off valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa)
2. Flexible Connections:
If the unit is to be installed with flexible couplings and/or quick-disconnect fittings, the installer must use a heavy-duty AGA
design-certified flexible connector of at least 1/2” (1.3 cm) ID NPT (with suitable strain reliefs) incompliance with ANSI
Z21.41 and Z21.69. In Canada: CAN 1-6, 10-88 metal connectors for gas appliances and CAN 1-6.9 M79 quick
disconnect devices for use with gas fuel. In Massachusetts: This appliance must be installed with a 36” (3-foot) long
flexible gas connector

CAUTION:
Leak testing of the
appliance shall be conducted
according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. Before placing the
oven into operation, always check
for leaks with a soapy water
solution or other acceptable
method. DO NOT USE AN OPEN
FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS!
