REMOVING THE OLD REGULATOR
NOTE: If you are converting your appliance from an existing regulator as seen below, it must be removed before you can use the new regulator/hose assembly in this kit. If your existing regulator was for a Natural Gas (NG) appliance, you will also need a Gas Conversion Kit to change all your orifices from NG to LP. Please contact your Hestan dealer to order the appropriate kit.

GAS CONNECTIONS
GAS SUPPLY
Gas connections should be made by a qualified plumber, or your professional outdoor appliance installer.
Make certain new piping and connections have been made in a clean manner and have been purged so that piping compound, chips, etc. will not clog regulators, valves, orifices, or burners. Use pipe joint compound / thread sealant approved for natural and LP gases.
NEVER CONNECT THE APPLIANCE TO AN UNREGULATED GAS SUPPLY. Before proceeding, ensure the appliance is fitted for Natural or Liquid Propane gas. Connecting to an improper gas type will result in poor performance and increased risk of damage or injury. Gas type and gas consumption (BTU per hour) for each burner type is shown on the rating label affixed to the underside of the drip tray.
Installation of this cooking appliance must be made in accordance with local codes. In the absence of local codes, this unit should be installed in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code No.

INSTALLATION OF NEW REGULATOR
1. The gas connection at the appliance must use a minimum 1/2” diameter flexible (semi-rigid) stainless steel gas hose up to the fixed pipe / bulkhead fitting as shown below. The gas line connectors must comply with the
Manufactured Homes, ANSI Z21.75 • CSA 6.27
stainless steel gas connection shall be 6 feet (1.82 m) or less.
2. Connect the regulator/hose assembly to the 3/8” Flare (compression flare fitting) X 1/2” NPT female adapter as shown. Use appropriate thread sealant on all connections. The hose as well as the connectors must comply with the
Manufactured Homes, ANSI Z21.75 • CSA 6.27
NOTE: Locate the pipe and regulator assembly in such a way that the regulator cannot touch the floor of the enclosure when disconnected from the LP cylinder. This is important so that no contaminants can get into the large connection end. Also be sure all hoses are away from heat sources and away from sharp edges which may cut into the hose and cause a leak.

3. Place the tank retention device on the floor of your island (enclosure). Temporarily place a standard 20 lb. LP cylinder in the retention device and connect the regulator/hose assembly to the cylinder. DO NOT OPEN THE GAS VALVE. Move the retention device to a convenient location which allows for easy access to the cylinder shutoff valve, and does not stretch or kink the hose. When you believe you have the device located correctly, mark the floor around the device, disconnect the regulator and remove the cylinder from the island.
4. Using the holes provided in the retention device, secure it to the floor with screws (not included). Use of stainless-steel screws is highly recommended.
5. Re-install the LP cylinder in the retention device and re-connect the regulator/hose assembly.
6. Proceed to LEAK TESTING section.

LEAK TESTING
GENERAL A complete gas tightness check must be performed of all gas-carrying components due to possible
movement during installation, or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to parts of the unit.
BEFORE TESTING
Do not smoke while leak testing.
Never leak test with an open flame.
Make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water for leak testing purposes.
Apply the solution to the gas fittings by using a spray bottle or a brush.
For LP units, always check with a full LP cylinder.
TO TEST
Make sure all control valves are in the “OFF” position.
Apply the soap solution described above to all fittings.
Turn the gas supply on.
Check all connections from the supply line, or LP cylinder up to and including the manifold pipe
assembly.
Soap bubbles will appear where a leak is present. If a leak is present, immediately turn off gas
supply, tighten any leaking fittings, turn the gas supply back on, and recheck.
If you cannot stop a gas leak, turn off the gas supply and call the dealer where you purchased
your appliance.
Do not use the appliancel until all connections have been checked and do not leak. IMPORTANT NOTE - ALWAYS CHECK FOR LEAKS AFTER EVERY LP CYLINDER CHANGE.
ADDITIONAL WARNINGS

breezeways, or any enclosed areas. Do not operate the appliance under unprotected, combustible construction. Use only in well-ventilated areas. See the INSTALLATION section of the manual that came with your appliance for more details.
2. Portable LP cylinders - Always shut off the main valve on the liquid propane (LP) cylinder after
each use. Never use a dented or rusted LP cylinder. Never attach or disconnect an LP cylinder, or move or alter gas fittings when the appliance is in operation or is hot.
