Natural to LP/Propane Conversion Instructions (Open Top Burners)
This product is manufactured and adjusted for operation with natural gas as shipped from the factory. To operate with
LP/Propane gas, the following adjustments should be made:
1. A pressure regulator is located in the left rear corner of the burner box. To gain access to the pressure regulator,
remove the two left grates, tow burner bowls, and the left grate support. Convert the regulator by removing the cap
marked “Nat” and reverse it to read “LP”. Be sure not to disturb or remove the spring beneath the cap.
2. To convert surface, griddle,and grill burners to LP/Propane, turn the burner orifice hoods clockwise until they become
snug agains the internal LP/Propane pin orifice.
3. See the “Burner Adjustment” sections to obtain a properly adjusted flame of all burners.
When installing or removing the range for service, a rolling lift jack should be used. Do not push against any of the
edges of the range in an attempt to slide it into or out of the installation. Although all metal parts are deburred during
manufacturing, accidents could occur if the range should be moved suddenly or violently. Pushing or pulling a range
(rather than using a lift jack), also increases of bending the leg spindles or the internal coupling connectors.
Surface Burner Adjustments (Open Top Burners)
To gain access to the surface burner adjustments:
1. Remove the grates, bowls, and grate supports.
2. Locate the air shutter “A” and loosen the screw “B” that holds the air shutter in place.
3. Remove the drip tray, allowing your work space to adjust the orifice hood “C”.
4. Replace grate support and burner bowls (this allows for correct air flow, as in normal use).
5. Light each burner by rotating the burner valve shaft “D” to high position.
6. With a proper flame height, adjust the air shutter “A” to obtain a blue flame with no yellow tipping that sits on the
burner at the burner ports.
(a) open the air shutter gap to eliminate yellow tipping.
(b) close the air shutter gap to prevent a noisy flame that lifts off the burner.
7. Turn the surface burners off.
8. Replace the drip tray.
9. Tighten the air shutter screw “B”.
10. Replace the grate support, bowls, and grates.
11. Turn the lighted burners to the low flame setting.
12. Insert a narrow flat-blade screwdriver into the hollow shaft of the surface burner valve and engage the slotted low
flame adjustment screw. The low flame should be a small flame that comes just to the top edge of the burner.
Rotate the adjusting screw clockwise to low th flame or counter clockwise to increase the flame. Turn the burn off
and relight several times, turning to the low position. The low flame should light at every port each time. Readjust
as needed.
