PROPER GAS SUPPLY

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION AEGIJIREMENTS ARE LISTED BELOW ON PAGE 4.

‘Copies of the standard

1.This range IS manufactured for use with NATURAL GAS. It can be converted for use on LP GAS. The rating plate lo- cated under the main top has the InformatIon on the type of gas this unit can be used with. When in doubt check with your local gas supplier.

2.Provide a gas supply line to the unit location. We suggest using a 74” rigid pipe, as smaller size pipe on long runs may

result in the gas supply not being sufflclent. Pipe joint

compounds resistant to the action of LP gas must be used.

3 The supply line should be equipped with a shutoff valve. This valve should always be located in the same room as the range and should be in a locatlon that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to the shutoff valve.

4 If local codes permit, it is recommended that flexible

metal tubing design-certified by the American Gas Asso-

ciation, be used for connecting the appliance to the gas

supply line. [The gas valve connectlon will accept a 3%” male pipe thread.1

5.If rlgld pipe IS used as a gas supply line, a combination of pipe fittings must be used to obtain an in-line connection to the range.

6.The gas pressure regulator on this model IS convertible and must be used. This regulator can be used on either NATURAL or LP gases. The pressure regulator has fixed outlet pressure at NATURAL and LP settings and these cannot be changed. The fixed outlet pressure on NATU- RAL gas setting is 4 inches W.C. On the LP gas setting the outlet pressure IS 10 inches W.C.
