CONVERTING FIREPLACE FROM NATURAL GAS TO PROPANE/LP GAS Continued
6.Locate air shutter at end of burner manifold (end of tube burner for CD42M series). Loosen screw and adjust air shutter to proper setting (see Burner Flame Adjustment, page 13). Retighten screw.
7.Remove pilot hood by pulling up until it disengages from barrel. Do not remove the retainer clip (see Figure 34).
8.Remove pilot orifice from inside barrel using a 5/32" allen wrench to unscrew the orifice.
9.Replace pilot orifice with LP orifice supplied with this kit. The number 30 is stamped on the sleeve for identification. Insert small end of new pilot orifice into barrel and thread until tight with the allen wrench.
10.Line up notch on pilot hood to the positioning tab on barrel receiver and snap back into position.
IMPORTANT: Be careful not to bend or kink the aluminum tubing during conversion. Make sure the pilot hood and orifice are properly mated and aligned after finishing this conversion.
3.Install the identification label enclosed with gas valve regulator to the valve body where it can easily be seen (see Figure 36).
