gas connection

Hook up to the gas supply line is accomplished at the manual

gas valve, which is furnished with a 3/8” SAE (UNF 5/8” -18)

male flare connection. All completed connections should be

examined for leaks using a solution of liquid detergent and

water.

The gas supply system must incorporate a pressure regulator

to maintain a supply pressure of not more than 11 inches water

column. When testing the gas supply system at test pressures:

> 1/2 psi

- the refrigerator and its individual shutoff valve

must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system.
≤ 1/2 psi

- the appliance must be isolated from the gas

supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-

off valve.

If detailed instructions on the installation and connection to

the gas supply are required, please contact your dealer or

distributor.

drain water hoSe

Drill a hole through flooring. To avoid damage to the hose,

the hole must be positioned so that the hose doesn’t touch the

boiler casing. Seal around the hose that goes through the drilled

hole and ensure that it does not kink when run through the

floor. Check to make sure that the supplied hose is long enough

in order for the water to drain outside of the vehicle. If not, the

installer will have to supply the extra length of hose.
