CONVERTING RANGE FROM NATURAL GAS
TO PROPANE GAS
22
IMPORTANT: READ PRIOR TO STARTING THE CONVERSION PROCESS: Because your r ange
may be fitted with one of three different types of oven systems, it is necessary to determine which system the
range employs in order to be successful making the range conversion. These instructions provide two different
methods for converting the range from Natural Gas to Propane Gas, Method A or Method B. Use the follow-
ing guidelines to determine which method to use for conversion:
If the range has a “PILOT” or “LITE” setting on the oven thermostat control
use Method A.
If the range does not have a “PILOT” or “LITE” setting on the oven thermostat
control use Method B.
WARNING: TO AVOID THE RISK OF SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE,
THE RANGE MUST BE CONVERTED CORRECTLY. IMPROPER CONVERSION OR FLAME AD-
JUSTMENT WILL PRODUCE CARBON MONOXIDE, WHICH IS A POISONOUS GAS.
STEP 1 METHOD A or METHOD B Convert Regulator from Nat. Gas to Propane Gas:
Remove range main top. See Page 11 for main top removal..
A. Remove cap from regulator and snap out plastic plunger from bottom of cap.
B. Turn plunger over and snap back into the same location.
C. Re-insert cap into regulator and screw in place.

Range Top Burners:
1. Each top burner must be adjusted to the Propane
setting. With a 1/2” open end wrench rotate the
orifice hood counter-clockwise until it is snug on
the valve. The orifice hood is the brass hood on the
end of top burner valve. See Fig. 1
2. Repeat this procedure for each of the remaining top
burner valves.
