8 Cu. Ft. Electric and Gas Dryers
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Step 5: Connect the gas line (for gas models only)
1 Remove the pipe thread protective cap from the gas inlet.
2 Apply a pipe joint compound or about 1.5 in. wraps of teflon tape over all
threaded connections. The pipe joint compound must be resistant to the
actions of any liquefied petroleum gas.
3 Connect all the pipe joints and tighten with a wrench.
4 Connect the gas supply to your dryer.
5 Securely tighten the gas line fitting over the threads.
Important: Before you connect the gas line, review the gas line requirements
in Gas requirements
on page 19.
Note: An additional fitting is required to connect the 3/4 in. (1.9 cm) female
thread end of a flexible connector to the 3/8 in. (1 cm) male threaded end on
your dryer. Use only new AGA or CSA certified gas supply line with SS flexible
connectors. The National Fuel Gas Code requires that an accessible, approved
manual gas shutoff valve be installed within 6 in. (15 cm) of your dryer.
