INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Converting Broiler Burner for Use with Natural Gas
1. Locate orifice spud attached adjacent to pressure
regulator and remove for later use.
•
Orifice spud used for natural gas is silver and is
stamped “52".
2. Open oven door and locate broiler burner on oven
ceiling.
•
Remove oven door to make conversion easier.
See “Removing Oven Door” section.
3. Remove screw securing front of burner to oven
ceiling and remove broiler.
•
Be careful not to damage ignitor as you remove
broiler.
4. Unscrew LP/propane burner spud stamped “58"
with 5/16 inch socket wrench and replace with
natural gas spud stamped “52". Replace LP spuds
on inlet piping.
5. Reinstall broiler and, if necessary, oven door.
Gas Connection
Connect gas supply to regulator using hard pipe or
flexible connector (check local codes). Pressure
regulator supplied with this appliance has a ½ inch NPT
female connector.
•
A manual shutoff , not supplied with oven, must be
installed in an accessible location outside of oven.
•
Use joint compound that is resistant to action of
propane gas on all male pipe threads.
•
Do not over tighten gas fitting when attaching to
pressure regulator. Over tightening may crack
regulator.
•
Support pressure regulator with wrench when
installing gas fitting.
To avoid property damage or personal injury, only
use a new flexible connector that is AGA/CGA
design certified.
•
Do not use an old connector.
•
Do not reuse a connector after moving
appliance.
Testing for Gas Leaks
After final gas connections are made, turn on manual
gas valve and test all connections in gas supply piping
and oven for gas leaks.
To avoid property damage or serious personal injury,
never use a lighted match to test for gas leaks.
1. Place soap suds on connection.
•
Bubbles appear if leak is present.
2. If bubbles appear, shut off gas supply valve.
3. Tighten joint if leak is at factory fitting.
•
If leak is not at factory fitting, unscrew, apply
more joint compound, and tighten to correct
leak.
4. Retest connection for leak after tightening.
•
Retest any connections that were disturbed.
Test Oven Burner Flame
Properly adjusted oven burner flames are blue with a
distinct deep blue inner cone approximately ½ inch
long. When using natural gas, flame should not have
any yellow flame when burning. Some yellow flame
when burning LP/propane gas is normal.
Flame should not be visible in the oven cavity when
burning and should not extend into the oven cavity
beyond the removable oven bottom.
•
If burner flame is blowing or noisy, reduce airflow
to burner.
•
If burner flame is yellow and does not hold its
shape, increase airflow to burner.
