Fire Magic units are equipped with orifi ces for natural gas,
unless otherwise indicated. For use with propane gas, smaller
orifi ces must be installed to avoid hazardous overheating.
Please refer to Table 1 for the correct orifi ce size. Check
the orifi ce size by following the instructions below. The drill
size is stamped on the orifi ce. If the number is not visible
you may have to remove the orifi ce (as detailed below) to
read the number stamped on the side of the orifi ce.

If you are not sure you have the correct sideburner
orifi ce size (or wish to change the orifi ce), follow the
steps below.

CAUTION: If the burner has been in use, wait until

the burner and its components are cool
to the touch.

IMPORTANT: When converting orifi ces for different gas

type, the regulator must also be converted
for the new gas type. Reference the
CHECKING AND CONVERTING THE
REGULATOR section.
