6. GAS DRYER SECTION
To Make Gas Connection - Review gas requirements in previous section of these instruc-
tions.
1. Remove the pipe thread protective cap.
2. Apply pipe joint compound or about 1 1/2 wraps of Teflon tape over all threaded
connections.
NOTE:
Pipe joint compound must be resistant to the action of any
liquefied petroleum gas.
3. Connect the gas supply to the dryer. An additional fitting is required to connect
the 3/4" female threaded end of a flexible connector to the 3/8" male threaded end
on the dryer. Securely tighten the gas line fitting over threads.
4. Turn on the gas supply. Check all gas connections for leaks using a soap
solution. If bubbles occur, tighten the connections and recheck.
DO NOT use an
open flame to check for gas leaks.
