1. Remove
grates,
burner caps and burner heads.
2. Remove

bases
by unscrewing
the 3 small
screws in each base. Lift burner
straight
out.
DO NOT

the burner
bases unless the cooktop
needs to be raised,
3. Remove
the brass orifice spud under each burner
base by unscrewing
the spud from the fitting with a
7mm or 5/16" wrench
(depending
on the size of
your spuds),
Apply
a 314" wrench
to the hex on
the gas inlet tube
as a back_up
when
removing
spud
to
prevent
the
aluminum
tube
from
twisting.
4. install

spuds
acc__qording,to
one
of
the
following
diagrams
(see _

natural gas, depending
on which you are converting
tOo
_-_ Orifice
Spuds
for Converting
to LP Gas:
LP orifice spuds are in a small plastic bag packed with
this Use and Care book.
LP orifice spuds
have a 2-
digit number
and the Letter "L" on one side° Each ori-
fice spud will also have
I or 2 grooves
on one side,
denoting
the location
on the range where
it is to be
installed.
Orifice
Spuds
for Converting
to Natural
Gas:
Natural
gas orifice
spuds
have a 3-digit
number
on
one side.. Each
orifice spud
will also have
1, 2 or 3

To prevent
leakage,
make
sure the orifice
spuds
are securely
screwed
into the gas inlet tubes_ Use a
small wrench to hold the inlet tube hex to prevent
it
from twisting..
Put old orifice
spuds
back in the bag to save for
possible
future conversion,.
NOTE:
If an orifice spud is
accidentally
dropped,
the
cooktop
can be raised by
disengaging
the
2 front
clips with a large flat blade
screwdriver.
DO
NOT
attempt
to raise
the
cooktop
without

terminal
carefully,
making
sure not to bend the terminal.
Then lower
