INSTALLATION Continued
Installation Notes:
Before assembly and connection check gas supply.
A. The type of gas for which the unit is equipped is stamped
on the data plate located behind the lower front panel.
Connect a unit stamped "NAT" only to natural gas;
connect one stamped "PRO" only to propane gas.
B. If it is a new installation have the gas authorities check
meter size and piping to assure that the unit is supplied
with necessary amount of gas pressure required to
operate the unit.
C. If it is additional or replacement equipment have the gas
authorities check pressure to make certain that existing
meter and piping will supply fuel to the unit with no
more than 0.15 Kpa pressure drop.
TESTING & ADJUSTMENT
Testing
All fittings and pipe connections must be tested for
leaks. Use approved gas leak detectors, soap solution or
equivalent, checking over and around all the fittings and
pipe connections. DO NOT USE A FLAME! Accessibility to
all gas lines and fittings require that valve panel(s) lower
front panel(s), and/or oven rack(s) be removed. It may be
necessary to remove, or at least raise and securely prop
griddle(s), hot top(s), and/or top grate(s). All parts removed,
(including fasteners), should be stored safely for
re-installation.
1. Be sure that all valves and thermostats are in the "OFF"
position.
2. Turn on the main gas supply valve. Light all top section
pilots.
3. Leak test all valves and fittings as described at the
beginning of this section. Correct any leaks as required
and recheck.
4. Light the oven pilot.

D. Make certain new piping and connections have been
made in a clean manner and have been purged so that
piping compound, chips, etc. will not clog pilots, valves or
burners. Use pipe joint compound approved for natural
and liquefied petroleum gases.
NOTE: Gas pressure should be checked when the unit is
installed and all other equipment on the same line is on. The
operating gas pressure must be the same as that specified
on the rating plate. If necessary, pressure adjustment may be
made at the pressure regulator supplied with the appliance.
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system pressures in excess of 1/2
PSIG (3.45kPa.).
5. If the range is equipped with an oven on/off valve
separate from the thermostat, turn this valve on. If
the oven thermostat dial has an "OFF" position, the
thermostat is its own on/off valve.
6. In either case, now set the thermostat to 500°F, (260°C).
Leak test all valves and fittings as described at the
beginning of this section. Correct any leaks as required
and recheck.
7. Shut off all valves and set thermostat dials to "OFF" or
lowest position.
All units are tested and adjusted at the factory, however,
burners and pilots should be checked upon installation and
adjusted if necessary.
CAUTION: Gas will flow to the top section burners even if
top section pilots are not lit. Gas will not be interrupted. It
is the responsibility of the operator to confirm the proper
ignition of each burner as it is turned on. Should ignition
fail to occur 5 seconds after turning a burner on, turn the
burner off, wait 5 minutes, and try again.
