1. Refer to Figure 8 .
2. Be sure gas and electrical supplies to furnace are off.
3. Remove cap that conceals the adjustment screw for the
gas − valve regulator. (See Figure 8 )
4. Remove the regulator adjustment screw.
5. Remove the Propane regulator spring (white).
6. Install the natural gas regulator spring (silver).
7. Install the regulator adjustment screw.
8. Turn the adjusting screw clockwise (in) 8.5 full turns. This
will increase the manifold pressure closer to the natural
gas set point. (See Figure 8 )
9. DO NOT install regulator seal cap at this time.
REMOVE LOW GAS PRESSURE
SWITCH
There are two ways that the Low Gas Pressure Switch (LGPS)
could have been installed during the original natural to Propane
gas conversion.
All 14 3/16-in Casings or Vent Passed Between Inducer
Assembly and Burner Assembly
If the vent pipe passes between the inducer and burner
assembly, or the furnace is a 14 3/16-in. wide casing. The switch
may be installed as shown in Figure 9 .
1. Remove low gas pressure switch, brass street 90 _ elbow,
brass Hex nipple, brass tee and black iron street 90
_
elbow from the gas valve inlet pressure tap. (See Figure 9 )
Use pipe dope approved for use with Propane gas. DO NOT use
Teflon tape.
2. Apply pipe dope sparingly to the 1/8 − in. (3 mm) NPT pipe
plug (provided in kit) and install in the 1/8 − in tapped
inlet − pressure tap opening in the gas valve. DO NOT
over − tighten. Check for gas leaks after gas supply has
been turned on.

WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury
and/or death.
NEVER test for gas leaks with an open flame. Use a
commercially available soap solution made specifically for the
detection of leaks to check all connections. A fire or explosion
may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of
life.
