‹RECONFIGURING THE FUEL SYSTEM

NOTE:

All models are configured to run on natural gas from the factory.

To reconfigure the fuel system from NG to LP, follow these steps:

1.Turn the main gas supply off.

2.Remove the carburetor fuel hose from the outlet port of the demand regulator (see Figure 6.2).

3.Disconnect the power wires from the fuel sole- noid located on top of the regulator assembly.

4.Loosen the spring clamp on the small fuel enrich- ment line and remove the hose from the hose barb.

5.Remove the black pipe assembly from the outlet port of the demand regulator.

6.Remove the NG fuel jet (loosen counter clock- wise) from the outlet port.

7.Remove the LP fuel jet (loosen counter clockwise) from the jet keeper port on the side of the regula- tor housing. Install this jet into the outlet port in the regulator casting.

NOTE:

The jet sizes are stamped on the individual jets. The larger jet size is used for running on NG.

8.Install the previously removed NG jet into the jet keeper port on the side of the regulator housing.

9.Install the previously removed black pipe onto the outlet port of the demand regulator.

10.Reverse steps 1-4 in this procedure to reactivate the demand regulator.
