Troubleshooting Tips Installation Instructions Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions

Converting Burner Orifices to LP Gas:

LP gas setting

Tighten the orifice hoods for the surface burners and oven burner approximately two complete turns to the closed position and adjust top pilots, if equipped. The gas pressure regulator must be converted to the LP gas setting so that it will provide a pressure of 10 inches water column to the range manifold.

Converting Burner Orifices to Natural Gas:

(only if range has been operated previously on LP gas)

NAT. gas setting

Unscrew the orifice hoods for all burners (top and oven) approximately two complete turns, until the flame on the burner does not increase in length. Adjust the top pilots (if equipped). The gas pressure regulator must be set to the natural gas setting so that it will provide a pressure of 4 inches of water column in the range manifold.

Regulator Conversion:

All ranges are equipped with a gas pressure regulator for controlling and maintaining a uniform gas pressure in the gas manifold of the range. The burner orifices are sized for the gas pressure delivered by the regulator supplied. The pressure regulator must not be removed. To convert the regulator from one gas to another, refer to the following illustration that applies:

Harper-Wyman Regulator:

SCP Regulator:

NAT

LPG

On the SCP regulator, unscrew the converter using a 5/8″ wrench. Turn the cap over and reinstall.

NOTE: What you read on the converter cap or plunger is the type of gas for which the regulator is set. If yours reads NAT, the regulator is set for natural gas. If yours reads LP, the regulator is set for LP.

■For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to the regulator must be no more than 14 inches of water column pressure. For checking the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least

1-inch of water column (3.4 KPA) greater than the regulator output setting. If the regulator is set for 4 inches of water column pressure, the inlet pressure must be at least 5 inches. If the regulator is set for 10 inches, the inlet pressure must be at least 11 inches.

■The gas supply line to the range should be 1/2 inch or 3/4 inch pipe.

For standing pilot models, make the necessary oven pilot adjustment (see directions in the If Range Has Standing Pilots—Light and Adjust Surface Burner Pilots section). Also burner air shutter adjustments may be necessary on all models to complete conversion (see the Surface Burner Air Shutter Adjustment section).
