to loosen the bolt. Sliding the control levers forward
or backward will open and close the shutters. This
nut is hot and should not be touched. Use only metal
tools for this adjustment. Sliding forward opens the
air shutter, and sliding backward closes it. Tighten
the nut after making adjustment. The air shutter is
factory set and only a qualified gas technician should
make adjustments. (refer to the image below to see a
typical flame pattern)

ILOT DJUSTMENT
The pilot light is preset by the manufacturer and
should not need adjustment. The pilot light flame
must be large enough to engulf the thermopile and
thermocouple located next to the pilot, but not so
large as to create excessive noise or consume
excessive gas. (refer to the image below) However, it
can be adjusted by means of the pilot light adjustment
screw located on the gas control valve. Access the
gas control valve as described in the Gas Connections
section, on page 16. Note that the pilot flame must
engulf the thermopile so that the thermopile can
generate sufficient milli-voltage (325 to 500-mv) to
power the millivolt gas control valve.

the stove has been lit, it will not relight
immediately. After shutting off all gas flow, the
pilot burner cannot be relit until the thermocouple
has cooled, allowing the electromagnet to be
released (Approx. 60 sec.). The gas control knob is
designed to operate by hand. Do not use any tools
during this operation.

check the manifold pressure and properly adjust the
pilot and main burner flames.
HIGH ALTITUDE CONVERSIONS
For high altitude installations, (610-1370 meters,
2000-4500 feet) the orifice sizes (DMS) for NG gas
is 52 & 39 for 4"x6" pipe and 44 & 53 for 5"x8"
pipe. For LP gas, the orifice sizes are 54 & 64 for
4"x6" pipe and 56 & 64 for 5"x8" pipe. See data
plate for additional information. For high altitudes
consult the local gas distributor, or the authority
having jurisdiction for proper rating methods. If a
conversion is necessary, the installer must fill out the
conversion label provided with the kit and place it on
the unit.
