Gas Oonne< t on Gas supply pipe must be located within clearance area as shown in the "Cabinet Dimensions" illustration in "Location 4. Requirements" section. A 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 1%6"combination wrench and an adjustable wrench to attach the flexible connector to the adapters. Check that connector is net kinked. A. Gas pressure regulator B. Adapter C.
