Gas Burner Orifice; Gas Burner Valve Assembly - Wolf OG36-LP Technical & Service Manual

Component Access / Removal

Gas Burner Orifice

A gas burner orifice is threaded onto each burner valve
(except the rotisserie burner valve), opposite the burner
knob shaft.
To remove an orifice, first remove the grates, briquette
tray(s) and corresponding burner. Also detach the front
panel from the landing ledge as described in steps 1
and 2 of Front Panel Assembly removal instructions,
then use a 13 mm wrench or crescent wrench to
remove the orifice from the valve assembly. (See
Figure 4-15):
NOTES:
• It is not recommended to remove the valve from the
manifold in order to access or remove the orifice, as
this may damage the valve gasket.
• When reassembling, use only pipe thread com-
pound. Never use Teflon tape to seal gas pipe
connections.

Gas Burner Valve Assembly

Gas burner valves are attached to the top of the mani-
fold pipe with an L-shaped bracket and a screw. A hole
at one end of the bracket hooks onto the back of the
valve body, then the bracket is pulled under the mani-
fold pipe and the screw is passed up through the other
end of the bracket and threaded into the bottom front
side of the valve body. The open base of the valve
passes into a hole in the manifold pipe with a rubber
gasket around the edge to seal off the connection.
To remove a burner valve, first remove the grates, bri-
quette tray(s) and corresponding burner. Also detach
the front panel from the landing ledge as described in
steps 1 and 2 of Front Panel Assembly removal instruc-
tions, then (See Figure 4-16):
1. Switch gas supply to the appliance OFF.
2. Disconnect electrical leads from micro-switch.
3. Using a stubby or right-angle Phillips-head screw-
driver or a ratchet-driver with a Phillips-head bit,
extract screw from valve body.
4. Unhook bracket from back of valve body.
5. Lift valve off of manifold.
