Use only new Mack iron or steel pipes or copper
tubing
if acceptable - check local codes. Note that in
USA copper tubing must be mtemally tmned for
protectkn~against sutfur compounds.
Unions in gaslinesshould be of groundjoint type.
The gas supply line must be sized and installed to
provide a supply of gas sufficient to meet the
maximum demand of the appliance without undue
loss of pressure.
Sealants used must.
be -resistantto the action of all
gas constituents including
LP gas. Sealants should
be applied lightly to male threads to ensure excess
sealant doesnot enter gas lines.
The supply line should include a manual shut-off
valve to allow the appliance to be disconnected for
servicing.
A plugged 1mPTtapping must be installed in the
tine. The tapping must
be accessible for test gauge
connection and
be immediately upstream of the gas
supply connectionto the appliance.

The appliance and its individual shut-off valve
must
be disconnectedfrom the gas supply piping
system duringany pressuretestingof that system

The appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing
of the gas supply pipingsystem at test pressures
equalto or lessthan Hpsig(3.5kPa).
Failure to either disconnect o: isolate the
appliance during pressure testing may result in
regulatoror valve damage. Consult your dealer in
this case.

9.1 Mety kvia
For your safety this appliance is fied with a flame
supervision device
which will shut off the gas supply
if, for any reason, the pilot flame goes out. This
device incorporates a fixed probe which senses the
heat from the pilot flame. If the probe is cool, the
dame will prevent any gas flow unless the gas
control knob is kept pushed in at the pilot position.
See fuH lightinginstructionson nextpage.
99 Ueaning
Only dean when the fumace is cold.
The front cover must be cleanedat least twice a year
to make sure that there is not any build up of lint etc.
over the holes.
The rest of the appliance should only need
occasional wiping with a clean damp cloth and mild
detergent,
Dry and polishwitha sotl doth.
Do not use abrasive cleaners on any part of the
fumace.
93 C)nckr
A penodic check of the flanie should be made by
lookng through the pibt viewing window. See the
illustration
in the lighting instructions on the next
page-
93.1 The applmce area must always be kept clear and
tree from combustible materials, gasdine and ather
flammable vapors and liquids.
932 the vent terminal outdoon should be inspected
reguluty to make surethat it is not 0bSt~~ted by dirt.
