1.The pressure regulator has a l/z” female pipe thread. It is recommended that a 115” close nipple, a union and shut-off valve, be assembled into the regulator. This places the assembly parallel to the front frame of the range for easy connection to the gas supply and access to the shut-off valve. The stack on the regulator must not be in a vertical position.

2.Be sure to use joint compound to seal all connec- tions. Joint compounds used must be resistant to the action of liquified petroleum gases.

3.Be sure the shut-off valve is open between the inlet nipple and gas valve.

C. Check for gas leaks

When the range is connected, and all gas valves have been closed, turn on main supply, but before lighting the range or putting it to use, test all supply line con- nections and range itself for leaks. This range has been factory tested for leaks, but sometimes connections work loose in transit. NEVER TEST FOR LEAKS WITH A LIGHTED MATCH OR OTHER FLAME. Apply a thin solution of soapy water, if any leaks are present, bub- bles will form at the point of leakage. If a leak is discovered it must be stopped before the range is put into operation. After checking for leaks, wipe the soap solution off of the components. Joint compounds used must be resistant to the action of liquified petroleum gases. Any opening in the wall or floor, behind or under the range must be sealed.

1. Top burners

Whenever a top burner control knob is depressed and turned to the “LITE” position, the electrode between the flash tubes will start sparking and continue as long as the knob is held in this position. After the burner lights, move the knob to the “HI” position. At this time the sparking will stop. There are no standing pilots that have to be lighted or adjusted.
