Installation
Gas Hose Restraint
If the appliance is mounted on casters, a commercial flex-
ible connector with a minimum of 3/4” (1.9 cm) inside di-
ameter must be used along with a quick connect device.
A restraint must be used to limit the movement of the ap-
pliance so that no strain is placed upon the flexible con-
nector. The restraint should be fastened to the base frame
of the oven as close to the flexible connector as possible.
It should be short enough to prevent any strain on the
connector. With the restraint fully stretched the connector
should be easy to install and quick connect.
The restraint (ie: heavy gauge cable) should be attached
without damaging the building. DO NOT use the gas pip-
ing or electrical conduit for the attachment of the perma-
nent end of the restraint! Use anchor bolts in concrete or
cement block. On wooden walls, drive hi test wood lag
screws into the studs of the wall.
WARninG!!
if the restraint is disconnected for any reason
it must be reconnected when the appliance is
returned to its original position.
U.s. and Canadian installations
The connector must comply with the Standard for Con-
nectors for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69 or
Connectors For Moveable Gas Appliances CAN/CGA-
6.16 and a quick disconnect device that complies with the
Standard for Quick-Disconnect Devices for Use With Gas
Fuel, ANSI Z21.41 or Quick Disconnect For Use With Gas
Fuel CAN 1-6.9. Adequate means must be provided to
limit the movement of the appliance without depending
on the connection and the quick disconnect device or its
associated piping.
A drip leg must be used at each appliance. Refer to
NFPA54/ANSI Z223.1 - Latest Edition (National Fuel Gas
Code) for proper drip leg installation.
General export installations
Installation must conform with Local and National instal-
lation standards. Local installation codes and/or require-
ments may vary. If you have any questions regarding the
proper installation and/or operation of your appliance,
please contact your local distributor. If you do not have a
local distributor, please call Blodgett Combi at 0011-802-
658-6600.
