Fuel Conversion Instructions
The conversion of this appliance from one gas
to another must be carried out by an authorized
service provider.
The procedure for converting from one gas to
another is the same regardless of the initial gas
used. The only variation is in the orifice sizes
and component part numbers. Your authorized
service provider will ensure the correct parts
are used.
PSE Pilot
Using a suitable wrench on the hexagonal body unscrew
the pilot hood assembly from the pilot, do not twist the
hood itself. Remove the orifice and replace it with the new
orifice supplied in the kit. Refit the pilot hood assembly. Do
not over-tighten the pilot hood. The hood must return to its
original alignment. Take care not to damage the thermo-
couple, thermopile or igniter.

Note the position of the marker on the top of the rotary
knob. This marker will point to NAT or LP. (Fig. 55)
. To convert the valve from NG to LP, push in the knob
and rotate 90° (1/4 turn).
NOTE:
The shaft should point
to LP and the shaft will remain pushed in.
3. Remove the minimum rate screw, using a small screw-
driver, located in the valve next to the motor drive. (Fig.

4. Replace the minimum rate screw with the new minimum
rate screw supplied in the conversion kit. Ensure the
screw is fully installed. Replace plug.
