The

Regulator Conversion:
All ranges me equipped with a gas pressure
regulator tin controlling and m_fintaining a
uniform gas pressure in the gas manifold of the
range. The burner orifices me sized tin the gas
pressure delivered by the regulator supplied.
The pressure regulator must not be rem()xv(1.
To convert the regulator fiom one gas to another,

set fin 4 inches of water column pressure, the
inlet pressure nmst be at least 5 inches. If the
regulator is set fi)r 10 inches, the inlet pressure
must be at least 11 inches.
• The gas supply line to the range should be 1/2
