during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa).
The hot plate must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing it’s individual manual shutoff
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2
psig (3.45 kPa).

than the inlet pipe on the hot plate. A gas shutoff valve must be installed in the gas supply line upstream of
the hot plate for complete shutdown and service. Use pipe sealant on all pipe joints. Sealant must be
resistant to the action of L.P. gasses.
For proper performance, the hot plate must be level. If legs are provided, adjust feet at bottom of legs to
level hot plate. If legs are not provided, seal the base of the hot plate to the countertop with silicone.
If the hot plate is supplied with casters, the installation must be made with a connector that complies with
the Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances , and a quick-disconnect device that
complies with the Standard for Quick-Disconnect Devices for Use With Gas Fuel, . Adequate
means must be provided to limit the movement of the hot plate without depending on the connector and
the quick-disconnect device or it’s associated piping to limit the hot plate movement. Restraining device
should be connected to legs or back of body.
IMPORTANT: Check all gas connections for leaks, using a soap and water solution.
