PROCEDURE TO CONVERT FROM PROPANE GAS TO NATURAL GAS

FOLLOW STEPS 1 AND 2 FOR ALL COOKTOPS AND RANGES,

THEN FOLLOW ADDITIONAL STEPS AS IDENTIFIED IN TABLE 2

FOR THE PARTICULAR MODEL BEING CONVERTED.

STEP I: TURN OFF GAS AND ELECTRICITY If the appliance is in-

stalled:Shut off the gas valve to the appliance and remove appliance

power cord from electrical outlet or turn breaker off at breaker

box.

STEP 2: CONVERT PRESSURE REGULATOR FROM 10" W.C.TO

10" W.C. The gas pressure regulator supplied with the unit is

convertible from propane gas to natural gas. For cooktops, the

regulator is mounted external to the appliance. For ranges, the

regulator is mounted beneath the spill tray on the far left side.To

access the range regulator, remove the aluminum Trim Strips from

the spill tray sides (see Fig. 1A). Using the screwdriver, place it

approximately 3" from either end of the trim, parallel to the spill

tray surface so you can slide the screwdriver tip under the trim

edges to lift up for removal.To remove spill tray,loosen and remove

burner nut using 1" wrench as shown in Fig. 1B. Remove burner

bases and disconnect wire to igniter. Remove spill tray and heat

shield to access regulator. Reassemble in reverse order. Before you

can reassemble spill tray trim, you must readjust all of the lancing

on the trim. This will secure the trim (see Fig. lC). To operate

correctly on natural gas, the pressure regulator must be converted

as follows (see Fig. 1).

a) REMOVE THE CAP from the top of the regulator.

b) TURNTHE CAP OVER,so that the letters“NAT” can now be

seen upright in the cap.

c) REPLACE THE CAP into the top of the regulator, seating it

firmly.Twist cap clockwise to lock in place. Make certain the

spring located under cap remains in place.

d) Finally, REMOVETHE FOIL CONVERSION STICKER next to

the rating plate, located on bottom corner of rough-in-box

(cooktop) or behind the removable kick panel (ranges).

FIGURE 1B

FIGURE 1

Cap Position

for Natural Gas

PAGE 4

The burner flame should be blue

in color and stable with no exces-

sive noise or sputtering. It should

burn completely around the

burner cap.

Foreign particles in the gas line

may cause an orange flame during

initial use. This should disappear

with use.

If the flame does not burn evenly

all the way around the burner cap,

read “What to do if you smell

Gas,” inside front cover of

Cooktop/Range Installation In-

structions.

STEP 3: CONVERT SURFACE BURNERS (ALL MODELS)

A) REPLACE MAIN ORIFICES

1) REMOVE GRATES, BURNER CAPS and FLAME SPREADERS (see Fig. 2).

2) REMOVE MAIN SURFACE BURNER ORIFICES. ( 7mm Hex) This kit con-

tains the orifices and the socket required to remove them. A method of

retaining main orifices in the socket during extraction and insertion is to

apply a piece of foam tape, supplied in the kit, to the socket, as shown in Fig.

3. Insert the socket driver with 3" minimum extension into the jet holders

and remove existing orifices, as shown in Fig. 4.

3) INSTALL NEW MAIN SURFACE BURNER ORIFICES #168. Tighten ori-

fices until snug.

4) REASSEMBLE. Install flame spreaders and burner caps (See Fig. 8). Replace

grates.

B) CONVERT VALVES FOR NATURAL GAS

The bypass jet on each valve (see Fig. 5) must be adjusted as follows:

1) With all KNOBS IN “OFF” POSITION, REMOVE KNOBS.

2) LOCATE HOLE on control panel which is aligned to bypass screw. (see Fig.

3) Insert screw driver in hole. TURN Bypass SCREW clockwise until “bot-

tomed out” (approximately 1/8 to3/16 turn),then back out (counter clock-

wise) 1/2 to 3/4 turn. See Fig 5A.

4) REPLACE KNOBS.

5) CHECK FOR PROPER FLAME CHARACTERISTICS - Flame should be blue

and stable with no yellow tips on the ends of the flame. See Fig. 6.

STEP 4: CONVERT GRILL (MODEL NOS. PCS364GL, PCS484GG, PCS486GL, PRDS364GL, PRDS484GG, and

PRDS486GL).

a) REMOVE the grill grate, briquette pan, ceramic briquettes and the U-shaped burner. (Use extreme

caution around the ceramic grill ignitor, it is very fragile). (See Fig. 7)

b) USE A 1/2" DEEP WELL SOCKET (with counter-clockwise rotation) to loosen the grill burner orifice

hood. The orifice is located on the safety valve which is mounted on the front chassis panel. Set the

spacing between the rear of the orifice hood and the safety valve body using the guage provided in the

kit

. See Fig. 8.

c) REASSEMBLE THE GRILL in reverse order.

d) Reset grill bypass jet for proper low rate operation.Verify that the jet is screwed into the valve body

until bottomed out (This is normally done when converting to LP).Then unscrew the jet back out one

(1) full turn.

e) CHECK FOR PROPER FLAME CHARACTERISTICS – Flame should be blue and stable with no yellow

tips. Flame height should be approximately 1/4".

STEP 5: CONVERT GRIDDLE (MODEL NOS. PCS364GD, PCS484GG, PCS486GD, PRDS364GD, PRDS484GG,

and PRDS486GD).

ASSEMBLY

FIRST,

then lift the front and slide the griddle plate carefully to the rear.(If

the appliance is equipped with a backguard, cover the backguard to protect it during removal and

reinstallation of griddle plate. Use extreme care around the ceramic griddle ignitor; it is very fragile.)

b) REMOVE THE GRIDDLETHERMOSTAT BULB from beneath the griddle plate by sliding it out gently.

c) REMOVE THE SCREW SECURING THE GRIDDLE BURNER, then remove the burner.

d) USE A 1/2" DEEP WELL SOCKET (with counter-clockwise rotation) to loosen the griddle burner ori-

fice hood. The orifice is located on the safety valve which is mounted on the front chassis panel. Set the

spacing between the rear of the orifice hood and the safety valve body using the guage provided in the

kit. See Fig. 8.

e) REASSEMBLE THE GRIDDLE in reverse order.

f) CHECK FOR PROPER FLAME CHARACTERISTICS - Flame should be blue and stable with no yellow

tips. Flame height should be approximately 3/4".
