instructions and all applicable codes and requirements of the Authority Having Jurisdiction. If the information in
these instructions is not followed exactly, a fire, explosion or production of carbon monoxide may result causing
property damage, personal injury, or loss of life. The qualified service agency is responsible for the proper installation
of this kit. The installation is not proper and complete until the operation of the converted appliance is checked as
specified in the manufacturer's instructions supplied with the kit. Appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

to the bottom of the burner system. Be sure to connect
and lay out all components before finalizing installation
(see pg. 9 for details).
• Connect the opposite end of the gas hose to the 3/8"
flare connection on the flame control system as shown
(Ex. 8). After making all connections, perform a leak test
as described on page 12 of this manual.
NOTE: Do not use pipe compound or Teflon PTFE tape
on flare gas connections.
• Connect the opposite end of the cable to the flame
control system as shown, fully inserting before hand-tightening the collar (Ex. 8).
