Checking manifold gas pressure
Donotuseametocheckforgasleaks.
Disconnect the range and its individual shut-off valve from
the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing
ofthatsystemattestpressuresgreaterthan14”ofwater
columnpressure(approximately1/2”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14”ofwater
columnpressure(approximately1/2”psig).
If it should be necessary to check the manifold gas
pressure,connectmanometer(watergauge)orother
pressuredevicetothetopburnerrightrearorice.Using
arubberhosewithinsidediameterofapproximately1/4,”
holdtubingdowntightoverorice.Turnburnervalveon.
Foranaccuratepressurecheckhaveatleasttwo(2)
othertopburnersburning.Besurethegassupply(inlet)
pressureisatleastoneinchabovespeciedrange
manifold pressure. The gas supply pressure should never
beover14”watercolumn.Whenproperlyadjustedfor
NaturalGasthemanifoldpressureis4”.ForLP/Propane
Gasthemanifoldpressureis10”.
c. Tightenthegassupplyttingand/orapplianceconduit
toareunionadaptorontherightsideofthepressure
regulator(refertoFig.10)usingNO MORE THAN
15ft./lbs.oftorque.Besuretostabilizethe1/2”
areunionadapterwithanadjustablewrenchbefore
tighteningthegassupplyttingand/orappliance

d. Installareunionadaptertoexternalmanualshut-off
valve(SeeFig.8).
e. Attachexibleapplianceconduittoareunionadaptor
onshut-offvalve(SeeFig.8).
f. Make sure the service shut-off valve on pressure
regulator is set to the ON position (SeeFig.11).

g. Check for gas leaks. Turn the gas supply on to the
range and use a liquid leak detector at all joints and
conduits to check for leaks in the system.
