Gas Supply Connection - Jøtul GF 300 DV Installation And Operation Instructions Manual

15. Install the new regulator: Be sure the new gasket is
properly positioned and tighten screws securely.
16. Install the identification labels to the stove so that
they can be seen by any person who may be servicing
the stove.
Label A: apply to back of stove.
Label B: apply to the rating plate attached to the back
of the stove.
Small Conversion Label: apply to valve.
17. Reassemble the stove, apply gas to the system and
check for leaks using a soapy water solution or gas
detector.
NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS
LEAKS.
18.Correct gas pressure is essential for efficient and safe
operation of this appliance. Use a manometer to
check pressures as specified in the Gas Pressure
section of this manual (page 19).
19. Adjust the Air Shutter. You will need to position the
shutter to provide a gas/air mixture that will achieve
the best flame picture with your particular installa-
tion. Start with the shutter stem at the half-way
position in the slot in the bottom of the stove. See figs.
22 and 25. Pushing the stem back will restrict air, while
pushing it forward will open the shutter and increase
air. With some experimentation, you will find the
shutter position that works best for your installation.
ALWAYS REFER TO THE LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS ON
THE INSIDE BACK COVER OF THIS MANUAL WHEN
LIGHTING YOUR STOVE.

Gas Supply Connection

NOTE: If appropriate, install the optional forced air
blower before connecting the gas line, to prevent
clearance interference between the two.
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, Cana-
dian 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 mainte-
nance. See fig. 28.
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. Never
use an open flame to check for leaks.
