Never use an old connector when installing a new appliance. If the hard piping method
is used, you must carefully align the pipe; the rotisserie cannot be moved after the
connection is made. To prevent gas leaks, put pipe joint compound on, or wrap pipe
thread tape with yellow Teflon* around, all male (external) pipe threads.

NOTE: if joint compound is used compound must be neutral to the action of LP gas.
Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the gas line in an easily accessed location
outside of the appliance. Make sure everyone operating the appliance knows where and
how to shut off the gas supply to the appliance.
Connect flexible metal appliance connector to the gas inlet of the rotisserie. Position
rotisserie to permit connection at the shut-off valve.
When all connections have been made, make sure all rotisserie controls are in the off
position and then turn on the main gas supply valve.
Use a liquid leak detector at all joints and connections to check for leaks in the system.
Use a product specifically manufactured for leak detection. Leak testing of the appliance
shall be conducted in accordance to the manufacturer’s instructions.
NOTE: do not use open flame to check for gas leaks.
Do not route the hose, at the back, in front of or near a hot air outlet from the
rotisserie or any other heat source.
The hose must not be pinched or kinked.
