GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Use only joint compound, thread sealant, or tape specific to gas
use that is resistant to all gases. Apply joint compound, thread
sealant or tape to all male pipe fittings only and DO NOT USE ON
FLARED END OF FLARED FITTINGS. Be sure to tighten every
joint securely. If you are lighting manually be sure to maintain a
minimum safe distance to avoid property damage, personal injury,
or death. Please refer to match lit instructions:
1.Verify gas supply matches burner & pilot type.
2. Verify gas inlet pressure is within the specified minimum and
maximum pressures. Consult Gas Inlet Pressures on previous
page.
3. Purge gas lines of air, water and debris.
4. Perform all leak tests with leak detector or leak reactant
on main gas supply and repair leaks as necessary. Turn off gas
supply.
5. For models that include electronic ignitions, be sure to have a
qualified electrician install proper power supply following all local
codes.
6. Inspect flex line(s) for punctures or breaks in line(s).
7. Make sure the control knob turns the control valve before
installing. Use only your hand to turn the control knob. Never use
tools. If the control knob will not turn by hand, don’t try to repair it.
Force or attempted repair may cause a fire or explosion.
8. Refer to Connection Diagrams for applicable gas connections.
9. Position burner safely with access to all gas connections for
testing. Position burner to allow sufficient clearance from the fire
pit to avoid damage.
10.Turn on gas supply to perform repeat leak tests on main gas
supply and all connections to appliance and repair as needed.
11. Do not use appliance if there is evidence of leaking gas. If leak
is suspected, turn off main gas supply immediately. For appliances
for use with a fixed fuel piping system and equipped with an
appliance gas pressure regulator, the appliance and its individual
shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressure
in excess of ½ psi (3.5kPa). The appliance must be isolated from
the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual
shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
12. Ignite burner. See applicable ignition instructions within
Operating Instructions, page 15.
13. Once appliance is lit, perform leak test on all gas connections
and repair as needed.
14. Turn off appliance and allow to cool.
