30" GAS RANGE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
a.
Using a screwdriver or coin, turn the cap counterclockwise to
release from the pressure regulator. Be sure the O-ring gasket
stays in place.
b.
Turn the cap over and place into the slots. Turn clockwise to
lock in position. The letters corresponding with the type of gas
being used should be visible on the exposed end of the cap.
1c. Convert the Pressure Regulator - Non-Self-Cleaning
Standing Pilot Models
a.
Remove the cap from the pressure regulator.
b.
Remove the plunger from the cap.
c.
Turn the plunger with the enlarged end down for LP/Propane
use. Turn the plunger with the small end down for Natural gas
use. (See illustration below.)
d.
Replace the plunger inside the cap.
e.
Replace the cap.
f.
Remove the thermostat knob to access the selector key. Check
the selector key on the thermostat to be certain the pointer is
turned to select the
proper fuel being used
(Natural
or
LP/
Propane). Replace the
thermostat knob.
2.
Convert
Surface
Burner Valves - All
Models
a.
Lift and lock cooktop to
gain access to the
surface burner spuds.
Surface burner spuds for models with venturi burners are
located in the front of the burner box. For models with dual or
snap-in burners, the spuds are in the bottom of the burner box.
b.
Using 1/2" wrench, adjust surface burner spud as follows. For
Natural to LP/Propane conversion tighten spud down clockwise
until snug (approximately 1 to 1-1/2 turns). This restricts the flow
of gas through the spuds to only that allowed by the hollow LP/
Propane metering pin. Do not over tighten.
For LP/Propane to Natural conversion, loosen spuds counter-
clockwise (approximately 1 to 1-1/2 turns). This increases the
flow of gas around the metering pin.
(For Models with Electric Ignition or Standing Pilot)
3.
Convert Oven Burner Spud
a.
Remove oven bottom and oven burner baffle located on top of
burner. To remove oven bottom, remove oven hold down
screws at rear of oven bottom. Pull up at rear, disengage front
to oven bottom from oven front-frame, and pull the oven bottom
straight out of the oven. Remove nut attaching burner baffle to
oven burner.
b.
Using 1/2" wrench, adjust oven burner spud as follows. For
Natural to LP/Propane conversion tighten spud down clockwise
until snug (approximately 2-1/2 turns). This restricts the flow
of gas through the spuds to only that allowed by the hollow LP/
Propane metering pin. Do not over tighten.
For LP/Propane to Natural conversion, loosen spuds counter-
clockwise (approximately 2-1/2 turns). This increases the flow
of gas around the metering pin.
4.
Convert Broil Burner Spud (if equipped)
a.
Using 1/2" wrench, adjust broil burner spud as follows. For
Natural to LP/Propane conversion tighten spud down clockwise
until snug (approximately 1 to 1-1/2 turns). This restricts the flow
of gas through the spuds to only that allowed by the hollow LP/
Propane metering pin. Do not over tighten.
For LP/Propane to Natural conversion, loosen spuds counter-
clockwise (approximately 1 to 1-1/2 turns). This increases the
flow of gas around the metering pin.
After conversion is complete, follow normal instructions on
page 3 for installation and burner operation/adjustments. For
models with linear flow valves, the low "simmer" setting must
be adjusted after conversion.
