National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or the Natural Gas and Propane
Installation Code, CSA B149.1, as applicable.
1. The appliance and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of that system at pressures in excess of ½ psi
(3.5 kPa).
2. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shut off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test

Electrical grounding must be provided in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of

FLUE CONNECTIONS
Do not obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue duct located on the rear of the gas
fired tilting skillet. It is recommended that the flue gases be ventilated to the outside of
the building through a ventilation system installed by qualified personnel.
Information on the construction and installation of ventilating hoods may be obtained
from the standard for “Vapor Removal from Cooking Equipment”, NFPA No. 96 (latest
edition), available from the National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park,
Quincy, MA, U.S.A. 02269.
UNPACKING
Immediately after unpacking, check for possible shipping damage. If the gas fired tilting
skillet is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier
within 15 days of delivery.
Before installing, verify that the type of gas supply (natural or propane) and electrical
service agree with the specifications on the rating plate located on the left side console
as you face the front of the appliance. If the supply and equipment requirements do not
agree, contact your dealer immediately.
