Important: Remove all packing material and literature 
from range before connecting gas and electrical supply.
Note: To prevent leaks, put pipe joint sealant on all 
external pipe threads.

 

pipe when tightening fittings.
Connection to Pressure Regulator
The regulator is already installed on the appliance.

 Do not make the connection too tight. 

The regulator is die cast. Overtightening may crack the 
regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or 
explosion.

Checking Manifold gas Pressure
Disconnect this range and its individual manual shutoff 
valve from the gas supply piping system during any 
pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater 
than 14" water column pressure (approximately ½" psig).

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply 
piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff 
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply 
piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 
14" water column pressure (approximately ½" psig).

If it should be necessary to check the manifold gas 
pressure, connect manometer (water gauge) or 
other pressure device to the top burner right rear 
orifice. Using a rubber hose with inside diameter of 
approximately ¼" hold tubing down tight over orifice. 
Turn burner valve on.

For accurate pressure check have at least two (2) 
other top burners burning. Be sure the gas supply 
(inlet) pressure is at least one inch above specified 
range manifold pressure. The gas supply pressure 
should never be over 14" water column. When properly 
adjusted for Natural Gas manifold pressure is 4" (For 
LP/Propane Gas the manifold pressure is 10")

Note: The purpose of forming the gas flexible 
connector is to position it in a way that will not block 
the unit or get pinched in it's final position.

A.  Install an external manual gas shut-off valve to gas 

supply line in an accessible location outside of the 
range. Be sure you know where and how to shut off 
the gas supply to the range.

b.  Install ½" flare union adapter to unit shut-off valve 

using 

NO MORe ThAN 15ft./lbs. of torque. 

 

NOTE: Be sure to stabilize the right side of the 
unit shut-off valve with adjustable wrench before 
tightening ANY fittings to the unit shut-off valve.

C.  Tighten the gas flexible connector and/or appliance 

conduit to flare union on the left side of the unit 
shut-off valve using 

lbs. of torque. Be sure to stabilize the ½" flare 
union adapter with an adjustable wrench before 
tightening the gas flexible connector and/or 
appliance conduit.

d.  Install flare union adapter to external shut-off valve.
e.  Attach the gas flexible connector with the flare 

union on shut-off valve.

f.  Make sure both shut-off valves are in the "ON" 

position.

g.  Form the gas flexible connector as shown on figure 

5c. This will prevent the flexible connector from 
pinching or blocking the unit when you will push it 
back in its final position.

h.  Check for leaks. Turn the gas supply on to the range 

and use a liquid leak detector (or soap and water) at 
all joints and conduits to check for leaks in the system.
