Notes:
1. The cooking surface area is defined as being that part of the gas appliance where cooking normally
takes place and does not include those parts of the gas appliance containing control knobs.
2. These clearances do not apply where an adjacent surface is of a non-combustible material or is
combustible but protected with a fire-resistant material. The fire-resistant material may be covered by
ceramic tiles or stainless steel to meet appropriate requirements relating to health protection.
3. Care should be taken where a combustible surface is covered by a non-combustible material for
example, covering a combustible surface with stainless steel will not prevent heat transfer, and in
some circumstances hazardous situation could arise.
Gas Connection
The gas connection is male 3/4
” BSP and is situated at the rear of the appliance below the main body
frame. The number of gas inlets corresponds to the number of wok rings the appliance is fitted with. The
inlet is to the ¾
” pipe located at the rear of the appliance.
This appliance is available in models for fixed installation or in models fitted with wheels/castors.
The appliance must be connected with rigid pipe as specified in AS/NZS5601. For fixed installation models
connect with 20mm copper tube and an Australian certified isolating valve.
For models fitted with wheels/castors an Australian certified stainless steel braided flexible hose of adequate
internal diameter must be used. The fitting of the hose must comply with the relevant sections of gas
installation code AS/NZS 5601. A restraining chain or wire must be fitted. We recommend a maximum length
of 1.5 m for the flexible hose. Wheels /castors are provided only on the rear supports of the unit while the
front section of the unit will still be on legs. In this way, the unit will stay in position without moving. An
