WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.

Install a shut-off valve.

Securely tighten all gas connections.

If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure gas pressure does not exceed 14" (36 cm) water column.

Examples of a qualified person include:

licensed heating personnel,

authorized gas company personnel, and authorized service personnel.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Typical flexible connection

1.Apply pipe-joint compound made for use with LP gas to the smaller thread ends of the flexible connector adapters (see B and G in the following illustration).

2.Attach one adapter to the gas pressure regulator and the other adapter to the gas shutoff valve. Tighten both adapters.

3.Use a ¹⁵⁄₁₆" combination wrench and an adjustable wrench to attach the flexible connector to the adapters. Check that connector is not kinked.
