A. Lift off

the griddle flue
cover. Remove
the 2 inside
clamping
screws.

B. Use a pad or

piece of
carton to
protect
the adjacent
surface. Slide
the griddle
toward
the rear
and out of
the hold-down tabs along
the bottom.

C. CAREFULLY lift and hold

the griddle. A thermostat
capillary is routed through
a clip. Gently lift the griddle
to one side and slip the
capillary out of the clip.

D. Lay the griddle

on the padded surface.
Do not disconnect or pull
on the capillary.

E. Remove the 2 burner

hold-down screws
at the rear of the burner.
• Pull the burner straight

back toward the rear
and out of the gas inlet.

F. Use a 1/2" deep well socket

to remove and replace
the orifice.

Reverse these steps to re-assemble the griddle. Push excess
capillary back into the entry hole. Route the thermostat
capillary so it is held by the clip. Place the unused orifice in
the holder for possible future use.

Installation Instructions for Gas Conversion

ADJUST BURNER FLAMES

Normally, burners do not need further adjustment.
Make adjustments only when necessary.

A. Turn on the gas. Plug in electrical cord.
B. Turn all burners on highest setting and check

the flames. They should be blue in color. When
using LP gas, the flames may have some yellow
tipping at the ends of the flame. Foreign particles
in the gas line may cause an orange flame at first,
but this will soon disappear.

C. Turn the burner knob to “LO” while observing the

flame.

Adjust the setting of the upper row of flames using
the valve bypass screw as follows:
Adjustments must be made with two other burners
in operation on a medium setting. This prevents
the upper row of flames from being set too low,
resulting in the flame being extinguished when
other burners are turned on.
D. To adjust the flame, remove the knobs. Insert a small

flat-blade screwdriver into the hole in the center
of the valve stem to engage screw.

• If the flames are too small or flutter,

turn the screw counterclockwise.

• If the flames are too large, turn the screw

clockwise.

E. Make the adjustment by slowly turning the screw

until flame appearance is correct.
