Gas Supply Connections

Perform the following steps to connect the gas supply lines to the AGC. See Section 2
for gas supply requirements. Connectors are sized for 3/8 inch inside diameter hose.
Do not change the inlet gas supply fittings to quick-connect fittings. Using quick-
connect fittings to connect and disconnect pressurized hoses may cause damage
to the system.
Note: When making hose connections, only tighten the brass fittings enough to
make gas seals. The fittings are subject to damage if over tightened.
