Gas Conversion Procedure
1. Turn off gas supply to stove.
2. Remove the stove Top Plate (3).
3. GF 100 DV II Only: Remove the front plate from the
stove. Pull the casting straight up and out away from
the side panels. Pull the panel upward with one hand
while the other pushes against the top of the firebox.
4. Release the trunk latches at the top of the firebox.
Carefully lift the glass frame up and out.
5. Remove the Log Set using care not to scratch or dam-
age logs.
6. Remove the burner skirt. Using one hand, lift from
under the rear lip and let the skirt rotate vertically.
Then rotate counterclockwise to clear the firebox
opening as shown in fig. 18.
7. Change the Main Burner Orifice. Fig. 19. Using a ½”
open ended wrench or deep-well socket remove the
burner orifice and replace with the appropriate orifice
supplied in the kit.
GF 100 DV II - #48 for NG
#56 for LP
GF 200 DV II - #46 for NG
1.20 mm for LP
8 CHANGE THE PILOT ORIFICE: From within the firebox,
remove the Pilot Head by pulling it straight up from the
pilot base. See fig. 20.
Using the 4 mm allen wrench that is included with the
conversion kit, unscrew the pilot orifice (counterclock-
wise). Replace with the appropriate orifice:
#51 for natural gas
#30 for propane gas
9. Tighten orifice into the base of the pilot assembly. To
prevent bypass leaks, be sure the orifice is secured
tightly and flush with the base. Replace pilot head by
pushing it down onto the pilot base. See fig. 20.
10. Replace the Variable Regulator. Using a Torx T-20
screwdriver, remove the three specialty screws from the
front of the valve regulator. See fig. 21.
11. Remove the Regulator Tower, Gasket, white plastic disk,
and Spring. Discard these parts.
12. Install the new variable regulator tower being sure that
the gasket is properly positioned and tighten screws
securely.
13. Install the identification labels to the stove so that they
can be seen by any person that may be servicing the
stove.
Label A: apply to back of stove.
Label B: apply to stove’s rating plate.
Small valve Label: apply to valve.
14. Reassemble the stove.
NOTE: Correct Burner position is
critical to proper function. Be certain that the burner
plate is securely engaged with the support legs in the
bottom of the firebox. When seated correctly, the
burner plate will be level, with little or now lateral
movement. The pilot head should protrude up above
the surface of the burner plate. See figure 22.
15. Apply gas to the system and check for leaks using a
soapy water solution or electronic gas detector.
NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS
LEAKS.
Correct gas pressure is essential for efficient and safe
operation of this appliance. Correct gas pressure must
be established at the time of installation.
NOTE: Minimum LP Inlet pressure is 12.0 w.c.
For more details, see the Gas Pressure section of this
manual (page 17).
ALWAYS REFER TO THE LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS ON
THE INSIDE BACK COVER OF THIS MANUAL WHEN
LIGHTING THE STOVE.
16. Adjust the Air Shutter: Locate and loosen the wingnut
that secures the Air Shutter. See fig. 26. It is under the
stove, in the center toward the rear. Push the shutter
stem back to restrict air and forward to increase air to
the burner. You will need to experiment to find the
best setting for your particular installation. The
shutter is set at the halfway position at the factory.
Be sure to tighten the wingnut on the Air Shutter stem
snugly after any adjustment. This ensures that the
burner remains locked in place.
