  1  Remove the shipping cap from gas pipe at the rear 
of the dryer.
  4  Check for gas system leaks with a manometer. If a 
manometer is not available, test all connections by 
brushing on a soapy water solution.
  3  Open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line to 
allow gas to fl ow through the pipe. Wait a few 
minutes for gas to move through the gas line.
  2  Connect a 1/2 inch (1.27 cm) I.D. semi-rigid or 
approved pipe from gas supply line to the 3/8 inch 
(0.96 cm) pipe located on the back of the dryer. 
Use a 1/2 inch to 3/8 inch (1.27 cm to 0.96 cm) 
reducer for the connection. Apply an approved 
thread sealer that is resistant to the corrosive 
action of liquefi ed gases on all pipe connections.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
NEVER test for gas leaks with an open fl ame.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT connect the dryer to L.P. gas service without 
converting the gas valve. An L.P. conversion kit must 
be installed by a qualifi ed gas technician.
IMPORTANT
The supply line must be equipped with an approved 
manual shutoff valve. This valve should be located in 
the same room as the dryer and should be in a location 
that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block 
access to the gas shutoff valve.
