The gas conversion procedure should be accomplished BEFORE the boiler is installed. For a boiler already installed, you must turn off gas supply, turn off power, and allow the boiler to cool before proceeding. You must also completely test the boiler after conversion to verify performance as described under Start-up, Section 10 of this manual.

You must install the propane orifice to fire the Knight wall mount boiler on propane. Verify when installing that the orifice size marking matches boiler size (Table 2A). Failure to comply could result in severe personal injury, death, or substantial property damage.

7.Using a 4mm Allen wrench, remove the four (4) screws securing the gas valve to the venturi (FIG. 2-3).

8.Locate the propane orifice disk from the conversion kit bag. Verify that the stamping on the orifice disk matches the boiler size (51 - 211, see Table 2A).

9.Place the orifice into the black rubber grommet in the side of the gas valve and secure inside the gas valve (see FIG. 2-3).

10.Reposition the gas valve against the venturi and replace the four (4) screws removed in Step 7, securing the valve to the venturi (FIG. 2-3).

11.Reposition the gas valve venturi assembly inside the unit. Secure the gas valve venturi to the combustion blower by replacing the two (2) screws removed in Step 6 (FIG. 2-2).

12.Reattach the air intake pipe and coupler to the gas valve venturi. Tighten the band clamp to secure.
