Connection
to Pressure
Regulator
The regulator is already installed on the appliance.
Do not make the connection too tight.
The regulator is die cast. Overtightening
may crack the
regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or
explosion.

Assemble the flexible connector from the gas supply pipe
to the pressure regulator in the following order:
1. manual shutoff valve
2. 1/2" nipple
3. 1/2" flare union adapter
4. flexible connector
5. 1/2" flare union adapter
6. 1/2" nipple
7. pressure regulator
Use pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and
LP/Propane gas to seal all gas connections. If flexible
connectors are used, be certain connectors are not
kinked.
The supply line must be equipped with an approved
manual shutoff valve. This valve should be located in the
same room as the range and should be in a location that
allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access
to tile shutoff valve. Tile valve is for turning on or
shutting off gas to tile appliance.

Once regulator is in place, open the shutoff valve in the
gas supply line, Wait a few minutes for gas to move
through the gas line.
Check for leaks. After connecting the range to the gas
supply, check the system for leaks with a manometer. If
a manometer is not available, turn on the gas supply and
use a liquid leak detector (or soap and water) at all
joints and connections to check for leaks.
Do not use a flame to check for leaks
from gas connections. Checking for leaks with a flame
may result in a fire or explosion.
Tighten
a[[ connections
as necessary to prevent gas
leakage in the range or supply line.
Check alignment
of control
knob valves after
connecting the appliance to the gas supply to be sure
tile cooktop manifold pipe has not moved. A
misalignment could cause the valve stems to rub on tile
control panel, resulting in a gas leak at tile valve.
Disconnect
this range and its individual
manual
shutoff
valve from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures
greater than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" water column).
tsolate the range from the gas supply
piping system
by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14"
water column).
