WARNING
A. Gas Supply Connection
A 3/8 in. ared tting has been installed on the gas valve
inlet at the factory. Ensure ttings are of the appropriate size
and type on the gas line connection. If the tubing has to be
cut to length be sure to use the proper cutting and aring
tool. Also, be careful not to crimp the tubing while bending. If
the tubing becomes crimped, do not use for installation.
Fire Risk
Explosion Risk
Verify inlet pressures.
• High pressure may cause overfire
condition.
• Low pressure may cause explosion.
Install regulator upstream of valve if line
pressure is greater than 1/2 psig.

Appliance Preparation
B. Convert to Left Side Gas Piping
• Remove black cap from left side.
• Remove two pilot head screws.
• Remove two pilot bracket screws.
• Detach thermocouple and pilot from control valve.
• Remove the control valve from the right side of the burner
pan and replace on left, upside down.
Note: Prior to installing use Teon tape or Joint compound
on the male threads.
• Reinstall pilot bracket on left side of burner.
• Reinstall pilot assembly to pilot bracket.
• Reattach pilot tube and thermocouple to control valve.
• Reinstall black cap removed from left side of burner to
right side.
• Install valve shield.
Note: An individual manual shuto󰀨 valve (not supplied) is
required when installing this appliance. The manual shuto󰀨
valve must be located in an easily accessible area, no more
than 6 feet from the appliance.
Note: Have the gas supply line installed in accordance
with local building codes, if any. If not, follow ANSI 223.1.
Installation should be done by a qualied installer approved
and/or licensed as required by the locality. (In the Common-
wealth of Massachusetts installation must be performed by
a licensed plumber or gas tter.)
Note: A listed (and Commonwealth of Massachusetts
approved) 1/2 in. (13 mm) T-handle manual shut-o󰀨 valve
and exible gas connector are connected to the 1/2 in.
(13 mm) control valve inlet.
• If substituting for these components, please consult
local codes for compliance.
WARNING
Gas Leak Risk
• Support control when attaching pipe to
prevent bending gas line.
Fire Risk
Explosion Risk
Personal Injury Risk
An explosion could occur if a connection is
made directly to an unregulated propane (LP)
tank.
WARNING
Joint compound or Teon tape must be used on all threaded
male connections to ensure a tight seal.
C. Gas Pressure
Proper input pressures are required for optimum appliance
performance. Gas line sizing requirements need to be made
following NFPA51.
Fire Risk
Explosion Risk
High pressure will damage valve.
• Disconnect gas supply piping BEFORE
pressure testing gas line at test pressures
above 1/2 psig.
• Close the manual shuto󰀨 valve BEFORE
pressure testing gas line at test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig.
