Operation
Gas Conversion:
• Conversion from Natural Gas to Liquid Propane (LP) or vice versa may only be performed by the factory or
its authorized service agent. In case of troubleshooting, ensure the correct orifice sizes of the spuds have
been installed.
• Natural Gas Orifice is #45.
• Liquid Propane Gas Orifice is #54.
• Orifice size is marked on the spud.
LIGHTING THE PILOT:
The manifold units are equipped with standing pilots and each should be lit immediately after the gas is
supplied to the equipment.
1. Before attempting to light the pilots, turn off the main gas valve to the equipment and wait 5 minutes to
clear the gas.
2. Turn off all gas control knobs.
3. Turn on control valve and light all pilots.
4.
The pilot burner must be lit at the end of the tube. Hold an ignition source (a long match or fireplace lighter)
through the pilot light hole in the front panel at the pilot tube. When the flame ignites remove ignition
source.
5.
Turn off the main gas valve to shut down the equipment.
Pilot Flame Regulation:
• The pilot flame on the equipment has been factory adjusted. When adjustment is necessary, adjust the
pilot flames as small as possible but high enough to light the burner immediately when the burner valve is
turned to the highest setting. Access to the pilot flame adjustment screw is obtained by removing the front
panel.
Burner Flame Adjustment:
•
Remove the front panel to gain access. Turn burner valve knob to highest setting. Slowly decrease mixing
ring aperture to give a soft blue flame having luminous tips. Then slowly increase opening to a point where
the yellow tips disappear and a hard blue flame is obtained.
