13.0 Converting the Appliance to Propane:
This appliance must be disconnected from the
gas supply piping system during any pressure
testing exceeding ½ PSI (3.5 kPa)
This is done at the valve located in the engine
of the appliance.
To access the engine, remove the screws
circled in the picture on the right.
This must be done before the fascia has been
fitted.
13.1 Changing Operating Pressure to Propane
To convert the operating pressure to
Propane you must change the maximum
and minimum pressures (refer to product
specification sheet at start of manual)
separately using the following instructions:
13.2 Setting Maximum pressure:
1. Connect a pressure manometer to the
valve outlet pressure tap. Pressure tap is
opened by turning the screw counter-
clockwise. The pressure regulator can be
reached by removing the domed-plug.
2. Turn the fireplace on and set to high flame.
3. Turn pressure regulator adjustment screw
to set required burner pressure on high
flame. Pressure is increased by turning the
screw clockwise or decreased by turning
the screw counter-clockwise.
4. After adjustment, replace the plug.
13.3 Setting Minimum Pressure:
1. Turn fire on low by turning the fire down to pilot
and then pushing the flame up button until the
main burner lights.
2. Confirm low rate pressure is correct.
3. If further adjustment is needed, increase low
rate pressure by turning Allen key clockwise or
decrease low rate pressure by turning Allen key
counter-clockwise; until the pressure detailed in
the product specification sheet at the start of this manual is achieved.
4. If no other adjustments are required, close the outlet pressure tap by turning the screw
clockwise. Check all connections and pressure taps for leaks.
5. Finally, put the sticker supplied in the conversion kit onto the existing dataplate of the
EF5000.
