TOP BURNER ADJUSTMENT

ORIFICES

Remove four (4) top burners by removing the mounting screws and lifting out of bracket. Then turn down the orifice hoods onto the pins being careful not to drive pin into the valve or to distort the hole through the center of the pin. Reinstall the top burners and mounting screws. (See Figure 15.)

FLAME APPEARANCE

The air shutter (see Figure 17) should be adjusted for a proper flame. Adjust the shutter so the flame has an inner cone of bluish-green and an outer mantle of dark blue. The flame should be soft in character.

NOTE: On LP gas a slight yellow tip will be visible on top burner flames, but will not affect burner performance.

MODELS WITH SEALED TOP BURNERS

NOTE: Sealed Top Burner Models with Serial Number Date Codes F006 through F009 are for use on Natural Gas only and are not field convertible for use on LP gas.

ORIFICES

Universal Models (Natural or LP) are shipped from the factory orificed for Natural Gas. IF THEY ARE TO BE USED ON LP GAS, the burner orifice spuds must be changed. They will be found wired to the inlet pipe behind the storage drawer. The proper orifice for use on Bottled (LP) Gas is red colored and stamped #68 (drill size). BE SURE to use proper burner spud for the gas in use. Rewire the Natural Gas orifice spuds to the inlet pipe for future conversion.

TO CONVERT

Remove four (4) top burners by pulling upwards. (See Figure 26.) Remove the two (2) flat headed screws at each burner and lift off main top. Replace the burner orifice spuds using a 5/16" nut driver. Reinstall maintop and burners. To replace the burners, position the ignitor over the hole at the rear of each burner opening and push the burner down onto the burner base until the skirt contacts the maintop.
