8.Reinstall the burner, brick panels, log set, embers, and glass door.

Also refer to SECONDARY INSTALLATION - INSTALLING LOG SET AND EMBERS. When

re-installing the burner, ensure that the burner to pilot hood relationship

is similar to what is shown in Figure 6. On some units you will need to pay special attention when installing the burner that the venturi adjustment rod is properly installed into the venturi adjustment piece welded to the burner venturi tube

9.Reconnect the main gas line if it was disconnected and open the shut-off valve at the gas line to the unit.

10.Use a small brush to apply a warm soapy water solution to all gas connections (use a half dish soap and half warm water). If a gas leak is present, bubbling will occur. Gas leaks can be repaired by using an approved pipe thread sealant or approved Teflon tape. NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME WHEN TESTING FOR LEAKS.

11.Reconnect the electrical power to the unit.

12.Relight the main burner in both the “HI” and “LO” positions to verify proper burner ignition and operation and proper flame appearance. Also refer to SECONDARY INSTALLATION - LOG SET AND EMBERS INSTALLATION for a flame appearance picture.

13.MAKE SURE that the conversion label is installed on or close to the rating label to signify that the unit has been converted to a different fuel type.
