1.

 

Remove the top and front access covers from the unit (no tools required for removal).

 

2.

 

Remove the gas valve and manifold from the unit via the unions on each end (

Figure 14.4

). 

3.

 

Remove the three screws mounting the injector plate on the air shroud (

Figure 14.4

). 

4.

 

Remove the four screws securing the manifold adapter to the injector plate taking care not to damage the 
O-ring. 

5.

 

Locate the propane orifice disk from the conversion kit bag.  Verify that the stamping on the orifice disk is 
correct for the heater (see 

Table 14.1

). 

6.

 

Remove the existing orifice from the O-ring in the side of the injector plate and replace it with  the orifice 

from the kit.  Position and secure the orifice in the injector plate as shown in 

Figure 14.4

7.

 

Reposition  the  manifold  adapter  to  the  injector  plate  and  replace  the  four  manifold  adapter  mounting 

screws.  Handle the O-ring with care, do not damage. 

8.

 

Reposition the injector plate to the air shroud and replace the three injector plate mounting screws.

 

9.

 

After installation is complete, attach the propane  conversion  label (in the conversion kit bag) next to the 

heater rating plate.  

Attach the LPG warning label (in the conversion kit bag) to the appliance casing, next to 

the gas inlet pipework.

 

10.

 

Replace the top and front access covers.
