TOOLS YOU NEEDED FOR CONVERSION

2 CONVERT THE REGULATOR(S)

Disconnect all electrical power at the main circuit

breaker or fuse box.

A. Shut off the gas supply by closing the manual

shut-off valve on the unit or by the wall.

B. Move the range out in order to access the rear of

the unit.

C. Remove the range back to access the regulator(s) -

(1) on 30” & 36” ranges and (2) on 48” ranges.

D. Convert the pressure regulator(s):

• Unscrew the cap with plunger.

• Place your thumb against flat side of the plunger

and press down to snap the plunger out of the cap.

• Carefully look at the plunger to locate the NAT

or LP position.

• Turn the plunger over so that the desired gas is

showing

near the

bottom.

• Snap the

plunger

back into

the cap.

• Screw the

cap back

onto the

regulator.

E. Reverse these steps to reassemble the pressure

regulator.

3 CHANGE BURNER ORIFICES

INSTALLATION TIP: First remove all

orifices and then start replacing them.

This will help to prevent the possibility

that some may not be replaced.

A. Remove the burner grates,

burner caps and burner heads.

B. Loosen the top burner

orifices using a 7 mm

nut driver. Use small

pliers to carefully lift out the orifices.

The main orifice is located

low in the center of the

burner, while the simmer

orifice is located higher

beside the center of the

burner.
