NOTICE: Massachusetts law requires the following:
Appliances must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter.
Appliances must be connected with three (3) foot (36” maximum length)
flexible gas connector and
A “T” handle type manual gas valve in the gas supply line to the appliance
.
Have the dealer where you purchase your new range install it or have him

The range should be connected to the supply line with 1/2-inch black iron pipe or a
certified flexible type stove connector. To prevent gas leaks, put an approved sealing
compound, which is resistant to liquefied petroleum gases, on all threaded
connections.
Important: Do not apply pressure directly to the range manifold pipe when tightening
supply connections. The manifold pipe should be held securely at the pressure
regulator to prevent twisting. Hold the pressure regulator with a wrench during the
tightening of the connection, or the manifold pipe may be twisted and split, and
cause a dangerous leak.
The installation of ranges designed for manufactured (mobile) home installation
must conform with the Manufactured Construction and Safety, Title 24 CFR, Part
3280, [formerly the Federal standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety,

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 test pressures in
excess of ½ psig.
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 pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig.
WALL CLEARANCES

Gas Range Conversion and Adjustment Guide
The range will either be set for use with Liquefied Petroleum (LP) or Natural Gas.
The factory setting is indicated on the serial plate. When set for Natural Gas
operation, the pressure regulator will regulate the pressure to 4 inches water column.
When set for LP Gas operation, the pressure regulator will regulate the gas to 10
inches water column pressure.
On sealed burner models the main top must be removed to adjust
regulator, thermostat and to install the proper burner orifices
