A brass orifice spud is located in the center of
each burner throat about 2" below the cooktop.
Apply masking tape to the end of a 5/16" nut
driver to fit snugly over the orifice spud. Press
driver down onto the spud of the left front burner
and remove by turning spud counter-clockwise
and lifting it out. Replace the Natural gas spud
with the appropriate L.P. gas spud shown in the
table.
Continue to replace the remaining orifice spuds,
one at a time. Place the Natural gas spuds in
plastic parts bag for future use and keep with
literature package. Replace burners caps using
both screws, and burner grates.
