BURNER ADJUSTMENTS
To gain access to the surface burner adjustments:
1.
Caution
::
Before preceding with the conversion, turn off gas supply to the appliance prior to disconnecting the
electrical power.
2. Disconnect electrical power to cooktop
3. Remove the surface grates.
4. Remove the burner caps (Item 1) by lifting up.
5. Using a large screwdriver or flat piece of metal, turn the brass ring (Item 2) in the center of each burner counter
clockwise, then remove.
6. Use caution when lifting the top as the ignition assemblies (Item 3) are not attached to the top assembly and will
fall out causing a possible breakage of the igniter.
7. With caution, lift front edge of cooktop to approximately 12” for working space.
8. Screw burner venturi (Item 4) counter clockwise until it is completely off of the burner orifice spud (Item 5).
9. With a proper flame height, adjust the air shutter to obtain a blue flame with no yellow tipping that sits on the
burner at the burner port.
(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.
IMPORTANT
- Conditions that cause odors:
1. Floating flames are lazy looking and do not have well defined cones. They are long, ill-defined, quiet flames
that sometimes lift completely off the ports and cause a strong and pungent odor.
2. Lifting flames are well defined, hard and noisy that lift completely off the ports.
3. An orifice that is out of line with the burner venturi.
10. After adjusting the air shutters, reverse steps 1-7 to return the cooktop to working condition.
