Hookup
the cooktop
to the gas supply line.
Install the pressure regulator
with the arrow pointing
toward cooktop and where you can reach the access
cap. Be sure you know how and where to shut off tile
gas supply to the cooktop.
Leak testing
of the appliance shall be conducted
according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
Check for leaks. After connecting cooktop gas, check
system for leaks witha
manometer.
Ifa manometer is
not available shut all pilots off, turn tile gas supply on
the unit and use a liquid leak detector at all joints and
connections to check for leaks.
Tighten
all connections
if necessary to prevent gas
leakage in the cooktop or supply line.
Check alignment
of valves after connecting the
cooktop to the gas supply to be sure the manifold pipe
has not been moved. A misalignment could cause the
valve knob stem to rub on the control panel, resulting in
a gas leak at the valve.
IMPORTANT: A pipe joint sealant resistant to the action
of LP Gas must be used on all pipe connections.
IMPORTANT:
Remove all packing material and literature
from cooktop before connecting gas and electrical supply
to the appliance.
Do not use flame to check for leaks from
gas connections.
Checking for leaks with a flame may
result in a fire or explosion.
Disconnect
the cooktop
and its individual
shutoff
valve from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure test greater than Y2psig.
Isolate the cooktop
from the gas supply piping
system by (:losing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than Y2psig.
