8. GAS CONNECTION
Hook-up to the gas supply line is accomplished at the
manual gas shutoff valve, which is furnished with a 3/8"
SAE (UNF 5/8" – 18) male flare connection. Always use a
backup wrench when connecting the gas supply line to the
gas inlet fitting. All completed connections should be
checked for leaks with a noncorrosive leak detector. (See
FIG. 6 – Gas inlet fitting may have a different orientation
than shown).

The gas supply system must incorporate a pressure
regulator to maintain a supply pressure of not more than
13.5 inches water column, static (no load).
C. SECURING REFRIGERATOR
IN ENCLOSURE
The refrigerator is installed in the enclosure with eight
screws. Six screws are in the front frame and two are in the
plate on the rear. See FIG. 5.
FIG. 5
NOTE: Push refrigerator into enclosure until front frame is
tight against the cabinet. First, secure the frame to cabinet
with six screws. Second, install the two screws to the floor
at the rear of the refrigerator.
Failure to follow the sequence in securing the refrigerator
in the enclosure can cause leakage between the frame and
cabinet. Any space between the counter, storage area or
ceiling and top of the refrigerator should be blocked. The
heat produced at the rear of the refrigerator will become
trapped in this space, making the top of the refrigerator hot
and reducing the efficiency.
The dimensions shown in FIG. 3 will give you adequate
space for service and proper installation.

When testing the gas supply system at test pressures in
excess of 1/2 psig, the refrigerator and its individual
shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system.
When testing the gas supply system at pressures less
than or equal to 1/2 psig, the appliance must be isolated
from the gas supply piping by closing its individual manual
shutoff valve.
In case detailed instructions on the installation and con-
nection to the gas supply are required, contact your dealer
or distributor.
