TO CONVERT
Lift off four (4) burner caps. (See Figure 27.) Remove one
(1) screw at each burner body. Pull each burner body
upwards and disconnect the ignition wire at the electrode.
Mark wires for identification on reassembly. Remove one
(1) flat headed screw at each burner and lift off main top.
Remove plenum box covers (when equipped). Remove
two (2) screws from each venturi mounting bracket and
remove venturi assemblies.
Turn the orifice hoods onto the pins. The orifices should be
turned snug onto the pins careful not to drive pin into the
valve or distort the hole through the center of the pin.
Reinstall the burner bodies and caps.
The air shutters should be adjusted for a proper flame.
Adjust the air shutter so that the flame has an inner cone
of bluish-green and an outer mantle of dark blue. The
flame should be soft in character. To adjust the air shutter,
loosen the lock screw. Move the air shutter to close the
opening to decrease the air or enlarge the opening for more
air. Tighten the lock screw when the adjustment is com-
plete. Reinstall the plenum box covers, main top and main
top burners in reverse order of removal. NOTE: On LP
gas a slight yellow tip will be visible on top burner
flames, but will not affect burner performance.
