CONVERTING TO LP GAS
4
CONVERT THE OVEN BURNER ORIFICES
Oven Burner
1. Remove oven door, storage drawer or broiler
drawer and oven bottom. The lower burner
orifice spud is located behind the storage drawer,
broiler drawer or kick panel. (On some models, a
metal shield must be removed to access the
orifice.)
2. To convert to LP gas,
use a 1/2" wrench to
turn the lower burner
orifice spud clockwise.
Tighten the spud only
until it is snug. To
prevent damage, do not overtighten the spud.
To convert to natural gas, loosen the spud
about 2 turns.

CONVERT AIR ADJUSTMENT SHUTTER

cones and should not extend beyond the edges of
the burner baffle. After 30 seconds of burner
operation, check for flames lifting off burner ports.
If lifting is observed, gradually reduce air shutter
opening until flames are stabilized.
For natural gas, the shutter should be open
1/2" or about 3/4 of the way open.

CHECK FOR LEAKS
When all connections have been made, make sure
all range controls are in the off position and turn
on the main gas supply valve. Use a liquid leak
detector at all joints and connections to check for
leaks in the system.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE A FLAME TO
CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig
to pressure test the gas supply system of the
residence, disconnect the range and individual shut-
off valve from the gas supply piping. When using test
pressures of 1/2 psig or less to test the gas supply
system, simply isolate the range from the gas supply
system by closing the individual shut-off valve.

or Converting Back to Natural Gas from LP
For LP gas, loosen the
Phillips head screw and
rotate the shutter to the full
open position. With baffle in
place, flames should have

ADJUST LOW FLAME SETTING
1. Turn all top burners to LOW.
2. Remove all four knobs.
3. With a small flat blade
screwdriver, turn the
valve set screws
clockwise to decrease
flame size,
counterclockwise to
increase flame size.
Adjust until the flame
is about the same height as the top of the burner.
4. Replace the knobs.
5. Check for flame outage by opening and
closing the oven door several times. If the flame
goes out, increase the flame size.

CHECK QUALITY OF FLAMES
The combustion quality of burner flames needs
to be determined visually.
If burner flames look like (A), call for service.
Normal burner flames should look like (B) or
(C), depending on the type of gas you use.
With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer cones
is normal.
The conversion for sealed burner models is
now complete.
(A) Yellow flames—
Call for service
(B) Yellow tips on outer
cones—Normal for LP gas
(C) Soft blue flames—
Normal for natural gas
