B. SECURING REFRIGERATOR IN
ENCLOSURE
The refrigerator is installed in the enclosure with eight
screws. Six screws are in the front frame and two are in
the plate on the rear. See FIG. 5.
FIG. 5
NOTE: Push refrigerator into enclosure until front frame
is tight against the cabinet. First, secure the frame to
cabinet with six screws. Second, install the two screws
to the floor at the rear of the refrigerator.
Failure to follow the sequence in securing the refrigerator
in the enclosure can cause leakage between the frame
and cabinet. Any space between the counter, storage
area or ceiling and top of the refrigerator should be
blocked. The heat produced at the rear of the refrigerator
will become trapped in this space, making the top of the
refrigerator hot and reducing the efficiency.
The dimensions shown in FIG. 3 will give you adequate
space for service and proper installation.

8. GAS CONNECTION

Hook-up to the gas supply line is accomplished at the
manual gas shutoff valve, which is furnished with a
SAE (UNF 5/8" - 18) male flare connection. Always use
a backup wrench when connecting the gas supply line to
the gas inlet fitting. All completed connections should be
checked for leaks with a noncorrosive leak detector.
(See FIG. 6 - Gas inlet fitting may have a different orien-
tation than shown).
DO NOT USE A FLAME
TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS
The gas supply system must incorporate a pressure
regulator to maintain a supply pressure of not more than
13.5 inches water column, static (no load).
LP GAS
CYLINDER
When testing the gas supply system at test pressures in
excess of l/2 psig, the refrigerator and its individual
shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply
p i p i n g s y s t e m .
When testing the gas supply system at pressures less
than or equal to
from the gas supply piping by closing its individual
manual shutoff valve.
In case detailed instructions on the installation and
connection to the gas supply are required, contact your
dealer or distributor.
