Pilot Orifice (cont.)
Slide the orifice strip from the natural gas position to the LP Gas position. Refer to the illustrations below.
Once the pilot strip has been re-positioned, re-tighten the pilot burner barrel and the pilot conversion is
complete Note: The pilot burner should align with the thermocouple and thermopile when tightened.

TIGHTEN 1/4 TURN
NOTE: THE ORIFICE STRIP MAY BE RANDOMLY LOCATED ON ANY SIDE OF THE HEX FITTING.
FUEL CONVERSION
Replace the Burner and Complete the Stove Assembly
Re-install the burner by positioning it inside the firebox several inches above its final location and lowering
the right end down first so that the burner inlet guide engages over the primary air adjuster box. From the
proper angle, you can look under the burner as you lower it down (a flashlight may be helpful). Once the
burner inlet is properly engaged in the primary air adjuster box, lower the left side down. The burner will sit
flat in the stove when properly position. A second guide on the floor of the firebox insures that the burner
hold down bracket is in the proper alignment for the burner hold down bolt.
Re-install the burner hold down bolt. If the burner is properly positioned, the hold down bolt should thread
in without causing movement of the burner.
Follow the instructions on that begin on page 14 of this manual to complete the assembly and installation of
your GABO.
Valve Regulator
The Hi/Low pressure regulator on the valve must be replaced with the propane (LP) regulator. Refer to the
illustration at the bottom of page 22 for the location of the valve regulator. Follow the installation instruc-
tions that are included with the propane regulator.
Leak Testing
After the fuel conversion has been completed, use a commercial gas leak detec-
tor or apply a soapy water solution to all the fittings and around the valve regula-
tor and pressure taps to check for gas leaks. Never use a flame to test for leaks.
Fuel Conversion Label
Finally, using permanent ink, fill in all blank spaces on the
fuel conversion label
that was included with the stove. This information is very important as this label
will supersede the natural gas specified on the permanent rating plate. Apply the
label to the rear surface of the control access door where it will be clearly visible
after installation. See adjacent illustration of the fuel conversion label.
In some circumstances, it may be necessary to convert the stove back to natural
gas. Contact your installer or Rais dealer for assistance.
