INSTALLATION:
1. The gas supply line must be of adequate size to insure maximum efficiency of the unit.
2. The installation must conform with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, Natural Gas Installation
Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1 or the Propane Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.2, as applicable, including:
a. The appliance and its individual shutoff 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 NPT(3.45 kPa).
b.The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal or less than 1/2 psig
(3.45 kPa).
3. Local regulations governing gas appliance installations must be complied with.
4. Equipment should be in an area with adequate ventilation
5. Minimum spacing of 6" to combustible construction is required along
back and side walls. Clearances for noncombustible construction are the
same as combustible clearances. For use only on noncombustible floors.
6. Materials such as wood, compressed paper and plant fibers that will ignite and burn, Must Not Be Exposed
Near this unit. Local safety codes should be complied with in respect to fire hazard avoidance.
7. Use of the supplied pressure regulator is mandatory ( provided with RM-55 only). Note: use of two
regulators may cause insufficient gas flow. Consult with your installer but always comply with above
codes.
8. Keep the appliance area free and clear from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors
and liquids.
9. Locate this appliance in a well ventilated place. Do Not Block or Cover the opening between the shroud
and pot. DO NOT OBSTRUCT FLOW OF COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR.
10. This equipment must be installed with adequate clearance for servicing and proper operation.
12. This unit should be operated only with drip pan in place.
13. If the unit is connected to a flexible gas line, the installation shall be made with a connector that complies
with the Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z 21.69 or Connectors For Movable
Gas Appliances, CAN/CGA-06.16, and a Quick Disconnect device that complies with the standard for
Quick-Disconnect Devices for Use with Gas Fuel ANSI Z21.41, or Quick Disconnect Devices for use with
Gas Fuel, CAN1-6.9, and adequate means must be provided to limit the movement of the appliance
without depending on connector and the quick-disconnect device or its associated piping to limit the
appliance movement.
14. Before connecting gas check that gas valve on the appliance is turned “off” (gas valve knob in vertical
position.)
15. Check for leaks using soapy water or other suitable leak detector. Rinse off the soapy water after testing.
