1. Turn o electrical power to the system at the
fuse box or circuit breaker. Also turn o the
main gas supply.
2. If replacing an existing valve, disconnect all
plumbing and electrical connections from the
old control.
3. The control may be installed in any position.
The arrow on the bottom plate indicates the
direction of inlet gas ow.
4. You should use new pipe that is properly
chamfered, reamed, and free of burrs and
chips. If you are using old pipe, be sure it is
clean and free of rust, scale, burrs, chips, and
old pipe joint compound.
5. Apply pipe joint compound (pipe dope) that
is approved for all gases, only to the male
threads of the pipe joints. DO NOT apply
compound to the rst two threads (see gure
2 for typical piping connections).
6. If you are using a vise or open-end wrench to
hold the valve while installing piping, do not
tighten excessively, as this may damage the
valve. (Torque: 375 in-lb maximum.) Do not
cross-thread during installation as this may
damage the valve.
7. See SYSTEM WIRING when making electrical
connections. After all gas and electrical con-
nections are completed, turn gas on and check
for gas leaks with leak detection solution or
soap suds. Bubbles forming indicate a leak.
SHUT OFF GAS AND FIX ALL
LEAKS IMMEDIATELY.
