can be seen by a service person.
Label A: apply to shroud on the back of stove
Label B: apply to the rating plate attached to the back
of the stove.
Small Conversion Label: apply to valve.
12. Reassemble the stove, apply gas to the system and check
for leaks using a soapy water solution or digital gas
detector.
NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
13. Confirm correct gas pressure. Use a manometer to check
pressures as specified under Section 9, Gas Pressure (page
18).
14. Adjust the Air Shutter. Fig. 7.1.
Slide the air shutter stem to the Midpoint position of its
travel, then adjust the stem position for the appropriate
fuel and flame picture. You will need to position the
shutter to provide a gas/air mixture that will promote
the best combustion efficiency and flame picture for the
particular installation.
• Push the shutter stem back (to the rear) to restrict air.
• Pull the shutter stem forward (toward you) to open
the shutter and increase air.
With some experimentation, you will find the shutter
position that works best for the particular installation.
• Run the stove at least 15 minutes to let the burner
settle-in before making incremental adjustments (1/8").
ALWAYS REFER TO THE LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS ON
THE INSIDE BACK COVER OF THIS MANUAL.
RE-INSTALL THE TOP PLATE BEFORE
CONNECTING VENT TO THE STOVE.

8. Gas Supply Connection

Route the gas supply line from the valve back to the

left leg. Use the Left Utility Cover Plate included with
the stove to hide the gas line between the plate and
the leg. See Appendix, fig. 17.8, page 43.
The gas supply line connection is made to the left

side of the valve. The gas supply line should be 3/8"
npt with a 1/2" diameter supply, or the appropriate
size to provide sufficient gas pressure to the valve
regardless of the input setting.
The use of Flexible Gas Appliance Connectors is

acceptable in many areas in the U.S. However,
Canadian methods vary depending on local code.
ALL INSTALLATIONS MUST COMPLY WITH LOCAL

CODE OR IN THE ABSENCE OF LOCAL CODE, MUST
COMPLY WITH THE MOST RECENT EDITION OF THE
NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 OR
CAN-B149.
All codes require a gas shut-off valve (gas cock)

and union, to be installed in the supply line, and
in the same room as the appliance. This allows for
the disconnection of the stove for servicing and
maintenance. See fig. 8.1.
A T-HANDLE GAS COCK IS REQUIRED IN
MASSACHUSETTS TO COMPLY WITH CODE 248CMR.
Secure all joints tightly using appropriate tools and

sealing compounds. For propane units be sure to use
compounds that are propane resistant. Turn on gas
supply and test for gas leaks using a soapy water
solution or digital gas detector. Never use an open
flame to check for leaks.
