Couplings and hose should
be installed in the same
plane as shown at left. DO
NOT OFFSET
COUPLINGS -- this causes
torsional twisting and
undue strain causing
premature failure
This is the correct way to
install metal hose vor
vertical traverse. Note the
single, natural loop.
Allowing a sharp bend, as
shown at right, strains and
twists the metal hose to a
point of early failure at the
coupling
Maintain the minimum or
larger bending diameter
between the couplings for
longest life.
Closing in the diameter at
the coupling, as shown at
right, creates double bends
causing work work fatigue
failure of the fittings.
In all installations where
"self-draining" is not
necessary, connect metal
hose in a vertical loop.
DO NOT CONNECT
METAL HOSE
HORIZONTALLY...unless
"self-draining" is necessary,
then use support on lower
plane as shown at left.
Dec. 2016
AVOID SHARP BENDS AND KINKS when
pulling equipment away from wall. (Maximum
pull will kink ends, even if installed properl y ,
and reduce Connector life.)

CABLE RESTRAINT
Please refer to the illustration below
when installing cable restraint on all
moveable gas fryers.
I-bolt is to be secured to the building
using acceptable building contruction
practices.
DRY WALL CONSTRUCTION
Secure I-bolt to a building stud DO
NOT attach to dry wall only. Also,
locate the I-bolt at teh same height as
the gas service. Preferred installation
is approximately six inches to either
side of service. Cable restraint must
be at least six inches shorter than
flexible gas line.
Utilize elbows when necesary to avoid
sharp kinks or excessive bending. For
ease of movement, install with a
"lazy" loop. gas appliance must be
disconnected prior to maximum
movement. (Minimum movement is
permissible for hose disconnection).
