nut driver that hold the pilot assembly in the fireplace.
8. Lift the pilot assembly into the fireplace which
will give you access to the fittings under the pilot
assembly. Take extra caution to not damage ceramic
electrode on pilot assembly.
9. Using a 10mm wrench, remove the pilot gas line and
swap the pilot orifice with the one supplied in the
conversion kit. Be sure that the pilot orifice is fully
seated and the pilot gas line is tightened properly
to prevent leaks around the orifice. If not seated
properly this will cause an unusually high pilot flame.
10. Once the pilot gas line is tightened, reinstall the pilot
assembly in the fireplace using the two #10 sheet
metal screws provided. Ensure pilot gasket is intact.
