□ Remove the front and rear burner jet and replace with the correct jet as stated in the
above table.
□ Remove the 4 screws securing the pilot assembly to the burner tray.
□ Carefully lift the pilot assembly away from the burner tray to access and unscrew the pilot
pipe nut. Slowly pull the pipe, nut and olive away from the pilot assembly to let the pilot
jet down. Remove the existing pilot jet and replace with the jet supplied in the conversion
kit. Tip: removing the test point hatch and guiding the pilot pipe up from below can make
this process easier.

regulator screw cap and screw out the nylon adjuster screw to remove the existing spring.
□ Replace the current spring with the purple spring supplied in the conversion kit and refit the
nylon adjuster screw.
□ Refit the access hatch using one screw to hold it in place.
□ Replace (or remove) the aeration collars using the table above.
□ Refit the burners.
□ Operate the fire with the glass o and adjust the operating pressure to 2.3kPa for Propane /
ULPG by turning the nylon adjustor screw whilst the appliance is running on maximum.
□ Turn the fire o and remove the burners and access hatch again to replace the metal
regulator cap
□ Adhere the Conversion label over the top of the Natural Gas data label on the appliance
data plate.
