Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the
1.
gas line in an easily accessed location outside of
the range. Make sure everyone operating the
range knows where and how to shut off the gas
supply to the range.
2. Install male 1/2" flare union adapter to
the 1/2" NPT internal thread elbow at inlet of
regulator. On
models equipped tith
standard tin burners,
thread end
of the 1/2" flare union adapter to
the 1/2" NPT internal thread at inlet of pressure
regulator. Use a backup wrench on the regulator
fitting to avoid damage.
remove the 90° elbow for easier installation.
3. Install male 1/2" or 314" flare union adapter
to the NPT internal thread of the manual shut-

to permit connection at the shut-off valve.
5. men all connections have been made, make
sure all range controls are in the off position and
turn on the main gas supply valve. Use a liquid
leak detector at all joints and connections to
check for leaks in the system.
CHECK FOR GAS ~.
to pressure test the gas supply system of the
residence, disconnect the range and individual
shut-off valve from the gas supply piping. men
using test pressures of 1/2 psig or less to test the
gas supply system, simply isolate the range from
the gas supply system by closing the individual
shut-off valve.

Extension Cord Cautions
Because of potential safety hazards associated
with certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an extension cord. However,
if you still elect to use an extension cord, it is
absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed,
3-wire grounding-type appliance extension cord
and that the current carrying rating of the cord
in amperes be equivalent to, or greater than,
the branch circuit rating.
