Connection to the gas supply
Ensure that the gas type at the installation site is the
same as that stated on the appliance rating plate.
On the end of the shaft, which includes the GJ 1/2"
threaded elbow, adjustment is fixed so that the washer
is fitted between the components as shown in the
diagram. Screw the parts together without using excessive
force.
Connection
Connection to the gas supply should be with either rigid or semi-rigid pipe, i.e. steel
or copper.
The connection should be suitable for connecting to RC 1/2 (1/2 BSP male thread).
When the final connection has been made, it is essential that a thorough leak test is
carried out on the hob and installation using leak detection fluid.
Ensure that the main connection pipe does not exert any stain on the hob.
It is important to install the elbow correctly, with the shoulder on the end of the
thread, fitted to the hob connecting pipe.
Failure to ensure the correct assembly will cause leakage of gas.
