3INSTALL REGULATOR ONTO BURNER BOX BOTTOM
This cooktop is designed to operate on natural gas at 4″ of water column manifold pressure and 7″ of water column (W.C.) supply pressure. It is shipped from the factory set for natural gas. The convertible pressure regulator supplied with the unit must be connected in series with the manifold of the cooktop and must remain in series with the supply line regardless of whether natural or L.P. gas is being used.
FOR PROPER OPERATION, THE MAXIMUM INLET PRESSURE TO THE REGULATOR MUST BE NO MORE THAN 14″ OF WATER COLUMN PRESSURE. For checking the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least 1″ W.C.. (or 3.4 KPA) greater than the
Screw the regulator onto the burner box bottom pipe connection. Make sure the top of the regulator is facing towards the cabinet front, easily accessible through the cabinet doors.
