Regulating the minimum flame

After lighting the burners, turn the control knob to the minimum setting and then remo-
ve the knob (this can easily be removed by apply a gentle pressure).
Using a small «Terminal» type screwdriver the regulating screw can be adjusted as in
Fig. 8. Turning the screw clockwise reduces the gas flow, whilst turning it anticlockwise
increases the flow – Use this adjustment to obtain a flame of approximately 3 to 4 mm
in length and then replace the control knob.
If GPL (cylinder) gas is being used, turn the screw clockwise right to the end of the
travel of the by-pass.

When you have carried out the new gas regulation, replace the old gas rating pla-
te on your appliance with one (supplied with hob) suitable for the type of gas for
which it has been regulated.

Lubricating the gas taps

If a gas tap becomes stiff, it should be dismantled, cleaned carefully with petrol and
smeared with a drop of special heat resistant grease.
The following operations should be carried but:
— disconnect the electrical power supply, close the gas supply tap from the mains or

cylinder.

— Remove the knobs and the plate by removing the screws located at the rear of the

plate itself and beneath the individual burners.

— Remove the two screws holding down the head flange.
— Remove the head flange and the retaining spring on the knob shaft.
— Remove the gas regulation cone, clean it with petrol and smear it with some heat

resistant grease, taking care not to obstruct any holes through which gas must pass.

— Re-assemble all the parts, making sure that the spring and the rotating axis of the

cone fitted to the knob shaft are correctly seated.
