  • Page 7 INSTALLATION GAS CONNECTION Before connecting the range battery to the gas supply line, be sure that all new piping has been cleaned and purged to prevent any foreign matter from being carried into the controls by the gas. In some cases, filters or drops are recommended. A separate Gas Shut Off Valve must be in- stalled upstream, from the gas pressure regulator adjacent to the range battery and located in an accessible area.
  • Page 8 INSTALLATION BURNER ADJUSTMENT The efficiency of the range depends on a delicate balance between the supply of air and volume of gas so that complete combustion is achieved. Whenever this balance is disturbed, poor operating characteristics occur. The air supply is controlled by an air shutter on the front of the burner. The air shutter openings should be increased until the flame on the burner begins to “lift”.
