Sears Kenmore 73251 Installation Manual page 37

1. Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the 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 I/2" NPT
internal thread elbow at inlet of pressure regulator.
On models equipped with dual burners, install the
male pipe 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 fit-
ting to avoid damage.
When installing the range from the front, remove the
90 ° elbow for easier installation.
3. Install male 1/2" or 3/4" flare union adapter to the
NPT internal thread of the manual shut-off valve,
taking care to back-up the shut-off valve to keep it
from turning.
4. Connect flexible metal appliance connector to the
adapter on the range. Position range to permit con-
nection at the shut-off valve..
Nhen all connections have been made, make sure
_1Irange controls are in the off position and turn on
the main gas supply valve. Use a liquid leak detec-
tor at all joints and connections to check for leaks in
the system.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE A FLAME TO CHECK |
FOR GAS LEAKS.

When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig to
pressure test the gas supply system of the residence,
disconnect the range and individual shut-off valve
from the gas supply piping° When using test pres-
sures of 1/2 psig or less to test the gas supply sys-
tem, simply isolate the range from the gas supply sys-
tem by closing the individual shut-off valve.
Egectrical Connections (onsome models)
Electrical Requirements
120-volt, 60 Hertz, properly grounded branch circuit
protected by a 15-amp or 20*amp circuit breaker or
time delay fuse
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
Grounding--IMPORTANT (Please read carefully)
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST
BE PROPERLY GROUNDED
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
three-prong (grounding)
plug which mates with a
standard three-prong
grounding wall recepta-
cle to minimize the pos-
sibility of electric shock
hazard from this appti-
ance.
The customer should
have the wall recepta-
PREFERRED
METHOD
I
i
Ensure proper
ground exists
before use
cle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to
make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obli-
gation of the customer to have it replaced with a prop-
erly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.
DO ['JOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR
REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM
THE POWER CORD.
