10. Remove (2) screws from the pressure regulator.
11. Lift the pressure regulator and gasket from valve and discard.
12. Install the new gasket, pressure regulator and (2) screws from this conversion kit.
IMPORTANT: Discard old gasket and screws. Do not reuse.
13. IMPORTANT: Check the location of the pilot to the burner. See Figure4.
14. Reassemble the furnace by following Steps 1 thru 5 in reverse order.
IMPORTANT: LABEL PLACEMENT
After conversion is completed, the large conversion label provided in this kit must be filled out completely (using chart information). Attach small conversion label to gas valve, and attach large data conversion label to inside of the casing door next to rating plate. Remove:”Natural Gas” tag from burner and replace with “Liquid Propane Gas’ tag provided with this kit. This is necessary to provide information for future servicing. Failure to do so could result in property damage, personal injury or death.
Refer to the Lighting and Operating Instruction Plate located in control area of furnace for instructions on lighting the burner.
WARNING
Any adjustments must be performed by a qualified service technician only. Improper adjustments could result in property damage, personal injury or death. The following information is provided for use by a qualified service technician.
With main burner in operation, check all pipe connections, pilot gas tubing and around pressure regulator for gas leaks with a rich soap and water solution. Bubbles indicate gas leakage. Never use a match or open flame to test for leaks. Correct even the slightest leaks at once before using furnace.
ADJUST PILOT BURNER NOTE: Pilot gas may need adjustment depending on inlet pressure, increase or decrease to
obtain proper setting.
Pilot flame should surround 3/8 inch to 1/2 inch of the generator tip. To adjust, remove pilot adjustment cap.
1. Remove screw cover over pilot adjusting screw.
2. Insert small screwdriver. Adjust flame as needed. Turn screw counter clockwise to increase flame or clockwise to decrease flame.
3. Turn thermostat to highest setting. Main burner should light quickly and smoothly. Turn thermostat to lowest setting. Main burner should go out. Pilot should remain lit.
4. Replace screw cover over pilot adjusting screw.

WARNING: DANGER OF PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY OR DEATH. Liquid petroleum (L.P.) is heavier than air and it will settle in any low area, including open depressions, and it will remain there unless area is ventilated. Never attempt startup pf unit before thoroughly ventilating area. The surface of the furnace is hot during operation. Keep children, clothing, furniture and flammable material away from it. Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable liquids or vapors near the furnace.

After conversion is completed, the large conversion label provided in this kit must be filled out completely (using chart information). Attach small conversion label to gas valve, and attach large data conversion label to inside of casing door next to rating plate. Remove “Natural Gas” tag from burner and replace with “Liquid Propane Gas” tag provided with this kit. This is necessary to provide information for future servicing. Failure to do so could result in property damage, personal injury or death.
The minimum inlet pressure in the in the gas supply should be 11.0” for Propane Gas. The maximum inlet pressure should never exceed 13.0”. This should be checked at the 1/8” inch N.P.T. plugged tapping in the supply line with a manometer.
The manifold pressure for this appliance is 10.3” w.c. for Propane Gas. Check with a manometer at the pressure tap on the control valve. To adjust pressure, remove cap from regulator and turn regulator adjustment screw on the control valve. To adjust pressure, remove cap from regulator and turn regulator adjustment screw clockwise to increase and counter clockwise to decrease pressure.

RATE VERIFICATION
Refer to the lighting and Operating Instruction Plate located in control area of furnace for instructions on lighting the pilot.
1. Make certain there is no gas flow through the meter other than to the appliance being checked. Other appliances must remain off and the pilots extinguished (or their consumption deducted from the meter reading).
2. With gas control knob in “ON” position, cycle main burner on and off several times by means of thermostat o stabilize pressure regulator valve (PRV) diaphragm.
3. With second hand on watch, carefully clock gas meter to determine exact rate of gas flow to main burner in cubic feet per hour (see CONVERSION TABLE below).
4. Compare actual input with manufacturer’s recommended hourly input stamped on rating plate. Convert BTU per hour input rating to cubic feet of gas per hour (cfh) by using the following formula.
Where as: PRV = Pressure Input Rating in BTU per Hour = Cubic Feet of
Regulator Valve BTU Content of Gas per cu ft Gas per Hour
MJ= Megajoule Input Rating in MJ/hr = m3/hr MJ of Gas per m3
M3= Metric Cube
5. If actual gas flow (cfh) does not conform to manufacturer’s recommended input rating (cfh of BTU converted to CFH), a limited adjustment of the PRV may be made. Turn PRV adjusting screw clockwise to increase or counter clockwise to decrease gas flow. Burner input must not exceed nameplate rating.
6. Replace cap screw in PRV adjustment stack. Turn gas supply to other appliances back on and re-light all pilots.
7. Place furnace in operation and observe through at least one complete cycle to be sure all controls are operating satisfactorily.
