LPG conversion
This appliance is supplied set up for Natural Gas usage. A
conversion kit is included with the product for Universal LPG
usage. The conversion kit contains the appropriate injectors
and 1 LPG sticker.
Please follow the procedure below if a conversion to suit
UNIVERSAL LPG is required:
1. Remove the hotplate trivets, burner caps and burner crowns
to access the hotplate injectors. Replace the factory fitted
injectors with the appropriate injectors, as supplied. Refer
to injector orifice table for injector sizes. The injector size is
10. Attach the LPG sticker to the cooker, near the gas supply
inlet. Cover the Natural Gas label that is
factory fitted.

2. Unscrew the top hat nut from the regulator. The top hat nut
and control pressure spring assembly will disengage as an
assembly.
3. Unscrew the threaded pin from top hat.
4. Upturn threaded pin, so spring is free and screw pin back
into the top hat until firm.
5. Refit the top hat nut assembly to the regulator ensuring
that it is fully screwed down. The regulator is now set for
connection to LPG.
6. Turn on the gas supply and at each new connection check
for leaks using soapy water. Each hotplate valve should be
turned on, one at a time, and the injector hole blanked off
for several seconds.
7. The operation of the regulator can be confirmed by
connecting a manometer to the pressure test point located
on the side of the regulator body adjacent to the outlet.
With the appliance operating check the outlet pressure
• when all burners of the appliance are operating at
maximum,
• when the smallest burner of the appliance is operating
at minimum.
Under these conditions the outlet pressure should not vary
from the nominal outlet pressure of 2.60kPa by more than
±0.52kPa.
8. If the regulator appears to not be performing satisfactorily
then check the following points:
• If the outlet pressure is consistently too low then the
inlet pressure may be too low and adjustment of an
upstream regulator may be needed, or an upstream
regulator or valve with insufficient flow capacity may be
present in the gas supply line.
• If this is suspected then it may be necessary to repeat
the checks whilst measuring both the inlet and outlet
pressure to determine if the inlet pressure is in the range
2.75 – 7.00kPa.
• Check that the insert has been fitted correctly.
• Check that the turret screw is fully screwed down.
• Check that the regulator has been fitted to the gas
supply line in the correct orientation, the arrow on the
base of the body indicates the direction of gas flow.
Once these checks have been completed, if the regulator still
fails to perform in a satisfactory manner it should be replaced.
9. One by one, turn the knobs to minimum and screw in the
bypass screw (accessible when the knob is removed) until
a small stable flame results. Turn the knob to maximum and
then back to minimum to ensure that the correct minimum
flame is maintained.
