Fig. 2.1
All gas connections must be made according to national and local codes. This gas
supply (service) line must be the same size or greater than the inlet line of the
appliance. Sealant on all pipe joints must be resistant to the action of LP/Propane
gas.
The range is equipped for the use with NATURAL gas. It is design-certified by CSA
International for NATURAL and L.P. gases with appropriate conversion.
The model/serial rating plate, located on the back of the appliance, has information
on the type of gas that can be used. If this information does not agree with the type
of gas available, check with the local gas supplier. See page from 13 to 15 for L.P.
gas conversion instructions.
1. Manual Shut-off Valve (fig: 2.1):
The supply line shall be equipped with an approved shutoff valve. This valve should
be located in the same room as the range and should be in a location that allows
ease of opening and closing (in a position where it can be reached quickly in the
event of an emergency).
Do not block access to the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off
gas 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.
Before installing the regulator mount the 1/2” NPT (conical) male connector to the
regulator (see picture 2.2). Gasket supplied have to be placed between 1/2” NPT
(conical) connector/extension pipe male pipe fitting (see picture 2.3).
The regulator supplied with this range must be installed before any gas connections
are made.
Use supplied pressure regulator only.
