2.2 Recommendations Before Installation
2.3 Gas Installation
Before installing the gas supply system, observe the pipes and ttings, check
the components for dirt, clean internally with compressed air to eliminate
possible particles, and prevent burners and valves from becoming clogged.
After cleaning, use thread sealant to connect the equipment to the gas network. For
correct application, avoid concentrating the compound on the rst two threads of the
pipe, otherwise it may generate particles that will clog the system injectors.
Your gas appliance will give you peak performance when the gas supply line is of
sufcient size to provide the correct gas pressure. The gas line must be installed to
meet the local building codes or National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 Latest Edition.

Never supply the appliance with a gas other than the one that is indicated on the
data plate. Using the incorrect gas type will cause improper operation and could
result in serious injury or death. If you need to convert the appliance to another
type of fuel, contact the dealer your purchased it from.
Never use an adapter to make a smaller gas supply line t the cooker connection.
This may not allow the correct amount of gas ow for optimum burner
operation,resulting in poor cooker performance.

02. EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION
In Canada, install the appliance in accordance with CAN/CGA-B149.1 or .2 and local
codes. Gas line sizing requirements can be determined by your local gas company
or, in North America, by referring to the National Fuel Gas Code, Appendix C, Table
C-4 (for natural gas) and Table C-16 (for propane). The gas line needs to be large
enough to supply the necessary amount of fuel to all appliances without losing
pressure to any appliance.
2.4 Installation - Gas Standards and Codes
In North America, gas appliances equipped with casters must be installed with
connectors that comply with the Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances,

2.5 Gas Pressure Regulator
Installation of this appliance must be in accordance with local installation codes,
including:
1. The appliance and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from the gas
supply piping system during any system pressure testing when this test pressure
exceeds 1/2 PSI (3.45 kPa).
2. The appliance shall be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the
manual shut off valve during any pressure test of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 PSI (3.45 kPa).
Gas Connection
The external thread of equipment’s intake-tube is 3/4" NPT. For proper operation,
the gas supply line must be the same size or larger. Gas line size should not be reduced
at any point along the supply line.
Manual Shut Off Valve
A gas pressure regulator and a shut off valve supplied by the technical shall be
installed in the gas service line before the appliance - in a physical location where it can
be reached quickly in an emergency.
The gas pressure regulator (which accompanies the equipment) is of utmost
importance for its operation and is indispensable. The pressure regulator must be
installed in the equipment supply gas line (failure to install the pressure regulator will
void the equipment warranty).
Regulators are supplied with 3/4" NPT connection ranges.
The regulator is factory set by 102 mmH2O ((4" WC) water column) gas pressure at
connector (natural gas) and gas pressure at 254 mmH2O (10" WC) connector for LPG
gas operation. pipe, otherwise it may generate particles that will clog the
system injectors.
Before connecting the regulator, check the supply line pressure in the equipment.
This may not exceed the maximum pressure of 3.45 kPa (1/2 PSI). If the gas supply line
pressure is higher than indicated, use a pressure reducing regulator.
02. EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT
Visually check all inlet pipes supplied by the installer and/or blow
them out using compressed air to clean out any dirt or debris
(threads or other foreign matter) before installing a service line.
These particles will clog the gas holes when gas pressure is applied.
Compounds used in appliance pipe threaded joints shall be resistant
to the action of GN and LPG gas and shall provide a gas tight seal to
prevent leakage.
When installing the pressure regulator remember that it can support
1/2 PSI (3.45k Pa).
When installing LPG, you have high source pressures ranging from
20 PSI (127.89kPa) to 100 PSI (689.48 kPa). If the LPG tank’s high
pressure gas line is directly connected to a unit without the proper
reduction regulator, it will rupture the diaphragm in the valve,
making it useless.
Any adjustment to the regulator should be done only by qualied
and licensed personnel with the appropriate calibrated test
equipment. Connections must be made by a licensed and
qualied contractor.
