15.Install the new regulator: Be sure the new gasket is properly positioned and tighten screws securely.

16.Install the identification labels to the stove so that they can be seen by any person that may be servicing the stove. Label A: apply to back of stove.

Label B: apply to the rating plate attached to the back of the stove.

Small Valve Label: apply to valve.

17.Reassemble the stove, apply gas to the system and check for leaks using a soapy water solution.

NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.

18.Correct gas pressure is essential for efficient and safe operation of this appliance. Use a manometer to check pressures as specified in the Gas Pressure section of this manual (page 19).

19.Adjust the Air Shutter. You will need to position the shutter to provide a gas/air mixture that will achieve the best flame picture with your particular installa- tion. Start with the shutter stem at the half-way position in the slot in the bottom of the stove. See figs. 22 and 25. Pushing the stem back will restrict air, while pushing it forward will open the shutter and increase air. With some experimentation, you will find the shutter position that works best for your installation.

ALWAYS REFER TO THE LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS ON THE INSIDE BACK COVER OF THIS MANUAL WHEN LIGHT- ING YOUR STOVE.

Gas Supply Connection

BLOWER NOTE: Install a 90° elbow off the valve to allow clearance for installation of the optional blower.

The gas supply line connection is made to the valve just inside the left rear leg. The gas supply line should be 3/8" npt with a 1/2" diameter supply, or the appropriate size to provide sufficient gas pressure to the valve regardless of the input setting.

The use of Flexible Gas Appliance Connectors is acceptable in many areas in the U.S. However, Canadian methods vary depending on local code.

ALL INSTALLATIONS MUST COMPLY WITH LOCAL CODE OR IN THE ABSENCE OF LOCAL CODE, MUST COMPLY WITH THE MOST RECENT EDITION OF THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 OR CAN-B149.

All codes require a gas shut-off valve (gas cock) and union, to be installed in the supply line, and in the same room as the appliance. This allows for the disconnection of the stove for servicing and maintenance. See fig. 28.

A T-HANDLE GAS COCK IS REQUIRED IN MASSACHUSETTS TO COMPLY WITH CODE 248CMR.

Secure all joints tightly using appropriate tools and sealing compounds. For propane units be sure to use compounds that are propane resistant. Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks using a soapy water solution. Never use an open flame to check for leaks.
