General Information

This information is to be used when installing gas
tumblers in countries, and/or on gases, different than
the machine’s factory configuration. Tumblers are
supplied from the factory for operation on Natural Gas
or L.P. Gas in the countries of GB/IE/PT/ES/IT/GR/
LU/CH. To install machines in any other country, or
on any other gas, requires some level of modification.

Models are built in two different configurations:

Regulated Natural Gas – Burner orifice is sized
for Natural Gas, second family, group H (E) at
20 mbar inlet pressure. Regulator/governor is
operational. Gas valve CAN be field-converted to
a non-regulating type.

Unregulated Liquefied Petroleum (L.P.) Gas
Burner orifice is sized for L.P., third family,
group 3+ at 28.37 mbar inlet pressure. Regulator/
governor is blocked open. Gas valve CANNOT
be field-converted to a regulating type.

Serial plates supplied from the factory are configured
for the countries of GB/IE/PT/ES/IT/GR/LU/CH.
These instructions pertain to the situations when the
country of use or gas supply is different than that on
the serial plate.

NOTE: This manual is only a supplement. Refer to
installation/operation manual for full instructions.

To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, DO
NOT CONNECT THE GAS LINE TO THE
TUMBLER IF THE GAS SERVICE IS NOT
THE SAME AS THAT SPECIFIED ON THE
TUMBLER SERIAL PLATE! It will first be
necessary to convert the gas burner
orifice and gas valve. Appropriate
conversion kits are available.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, if
the tumbler is to be connected to
Liquefied Petroleum (L.P.) gas, a vent to
the outdoors must be provided in the
room where the tumbler is installed.

WARNING

WARNING

To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire,
explosion, serious injury or death:
• Disconnect electric power to the

tumbler before servicing.

• Close gas shut-off valve to gas tumbler

before servicing.

• Close steam valve to steam tumbler

before servicing.

• Never start the tumbler with any guards/

panels removed.

• Whenever ground wires are removed

during servicing, these ground wires
must be reconnected to ensure that the
tumbler is properly grounded.
