Make Gas Connection
1. Apply pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and LP
gas to the smaller thread ends of the flexible connector
adapters (see C and G in the following illustration).
2. Attach one adapter to the gas pressure regulator and the
other adapter to the gas shutoff valve. Tighten both adapters.
3. Use a ¹⁵⁄₁₆" combination wrench and channel lock pliers to
attach the flexible connector to the adapters. Check that
connector is not kinked.
Typical flexible connection.
4. Install the pressure regulator with the arrow pointing up
toward the bottom of the cooktop base and in a position
where you can reach the regulator access cap.
IMPORTANT: All connections must be wrench-tightened. Do
not make connections to the gas regulator too tight. Making
the connections too tight may crack the regulator and cause
a gas leak. Do not allow the regulator to turn on the pipe
when tightening fittings.
Use only pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and LP
gas.
Do not use TEFLON
®
tape. You will need to determine the fittings
required depending on your installation.
Complete Connection
1. Open the manual shutoff valve in the gas supply line. The
valve is open when the handle is parallel to the gas pipe.
2. Test all connections by brushing on an approved
noncorrosive leak-detection solution. If bubbles appear, a
leak is indicated. Correct any leak found.
3. Remove surface burner caps and grates from parts package.
Align notches in burner caps with pins in burner base. Burner
caps should be level when properly positioned. If burner caps
are not properly positioned, surface burners will not light.
Place burner grates over burners and caps.
