8. For L.P. gas, consult your L.P. gas supplier for expert
installation.
IMPORTANT
Upon completion of any piping
con nec tions to the gas system, leak test all
gas con
nec tions with a soap solution
while system is un der pressure.
Immediately repair any leaks found in the
gas train or related components. Do Not
op er ate an appliance with a leak in the gas
train, valves or related piping.

1. Turn the power “OFF” at the main dis con nect switch.
2. Turn gas valve control knob to “OFF” po si tion.
3. Remove the 1/8" hex plug located on the out let side of the
gas valve and install a fitting suitable to connect to a
manometer or magnahelic gauge. See FIG. 3-3. Minimum
range of scale should be up to 5" w.c. for Natural gas
mod els and 10" w.c. for L.P. gas models.
4. Remove the pressure regulator adjustment cap screw on
the gas valve. See FIG. 3-3 for location.
5. Turn the power “ON” at the main dis con nect switch.
6. Turn gas valve control knob to “ON” po si tion.
7. Set the thermostat(s) to call for heat.
8. Observe gas regulator pressure when all burn ers are firing.
See Table 3B, Manifold Pressure (page 18) for proper
regulator pressure settings.
9. If adjustment is necessary, turn regulator ad just ment screw
clockwise to raise regulator gas pres sure, counterclockwise
to lower gas pres sure, to proper setting. N
OTE : Adjustment
fitting is plas tic and may require slightly greater turning
force than a metal fitting.
10. Turn the power “OFF” at the main dis con nect switch.
NOTICE
Do not increase regulator pres sure beyond
specified pressure setting.
11. Turn gas valve control knob to “OFF” position.
12. Remove fitting from the gas valve and re place the 1/8" hex
plug that was previously removed and tighten.
13. Turn the gas valve control knob to “ON” position.
14. Turn the power “ON” at the main dis con nect switch. The
appliance is now ready to op er ate.
If manifold pressure can not be properly adjusted, use the
procedure on page 21 to check gas supply pressure with a
manometer connected to the inlet pressure tap on the gas
control.
