Step
t
Provide Adequate Gas Supply
Your range
is designed
to operate
at a pressure
of
4" of water column
on natural
gas or, if designed
for
LP gas (propane
or butane),
10" of water
column°
Make sure you are supplying
your range with the type
of gas for which it is designed.
This range is convert-
ible for use on natural or propane
gas, if you decide to
use this range on a different
type of gas, conversion
adjustments
must be made by a service
technician
or
other
qualified
person
before
attempting
to operate
the range on that gas.
For proper operation,
the pressure
of natural gas sup-
plied to the regulator
must be between
4" and 13" of
water column.
For LP gas, the pressure
supplied
must
be between
10" and
t3"
of water
column..
When
checking
for proper operation
of the regulator,
the inlet
pressure
must be at least 1" greater
than the operat-
ing (manifold)
pressure
as given above. The pressure
regulator
located
at the inlet of the range
manifold
must remain
in the supply
line regardless
of whether
natural
or LP gas is being used,. A flexible
metal appli-
ance connector
used to connect
the range to the gas
supply line should have an I.,Do of 1/2" and be 5 feet in
length for ease of installation,
Step
2
Connect the Range to Gas
Shut off the main gas supply valve before
disconnect-
ing the old range and leave
it off until new hook-up
has
been
completed°
Don't
forget
to
relight
the
pilot on other gas appliances
when you turn the gas
back on.
Because
hard piping restricts
movement
of the range,
the use of an AoGA:certified
flexible metal appliance
connector
is recommended
unless local codes require
a hard-piped
connection,.
Never use an old connector
when installing
a new range_ If the hard piping method
is used, you must carefully
align the pipe; the range
cannot be moved after the connection
is made,
To prevent
gas leaks, put pipe joint compound
on, or
wrap pipe thread
tape with Teflon*
around,
all male
(external)
pipe threads.
