spuds are securely screwed into the gas
inlet tubes.
5. Put old orifice spuds back in the bag or on the
bracket next to the pressure regulator to save for
possible future conversion.

is accidentally dropped,
the cooktop can be
raised. Release the 2
front clips with a large
flat blade screwdriver
and remove the 4 screws
under the burner heads.
When lowering it,
make sure it snaps
over the clips.
