The air shutters on the burner control the primary
combustion air to the gas burner and are pre-set
to 1/8” open at the factory for natural gas fuel.
Some adjustment may be necessary to obtain
desired ame and to eliminate carbon deposits.
Evaluate ame appearance after the replace
has reached operating temperature (See Fig.
#28 for proper ame pattern.).
Open primary air if the logs, glass, and rebox
have carbon accumulation and/or the ames
are long, dark and stringy.
Caution: Burner area may be hot!
Turn off the replace and allow the unit to cool
before proceeding.
To Adjust:
1. Open and remove window frame and set
aside. See "Window Frame Removal" sec-
tion found in the Installation and Operating
Instructions manual.
2. Remove the log set, grate and brick
panels.
3. Remove the 4 screws securing the burner
to the base plate (Fig #26).
4. Carefully tilt the burner to access the primary
air shutters. With a 3/8” socket, loosen the
nuts securing the air shutters (Fig. #27).
5. Adjust the shutter to increase or decrease
the amount of primary air.
6. Tighten the nuts securing the air shutters
and reassemble in reverse order.
Caution: Proper air shutter setting is a
must.
The ame should be just orange and “lazy”.
It should NEVER be set to create sooting on
internal parts and glass.

CAUTION
The gas supply and electrical
power must be shut off before
proceeding with the conversion.
1. Ensure the burner, pilot and gas supply
are turned off, and the appliance has
cooled.
2. Note log positions and carefully remove
them (if installed).
3. Remove the log grate and brick panels
(if installed).
4. Remove the 4 screws holding the burner
tray to the base plate.(Two on either side.)
(Fig. #29).
If the unit is to be used on propane,
convert as follows using the
components supplied with this
burner:
WARNING
This conversion kit shall be
installed by a qualied service
agency in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions
and all applicable codes and
requirements of the authority
having jurisdiction.
If the information in these
instructions is not followed
exactly, a fire, explosion or
production of carbon monoxide
may result causing property
damage, personal injury or loss
of life.
The qualified service agency
is responsible for the proper
installation of this kit.
The installation is not proper and
complete until the operation of the
converted appliance is checked
as specied in the manufacturer's
instructions supplied with the
kit.

5. Remove the two screws securing the
manifold bracket to the burner (Fig #30).
6. Using a 1/2” wrench, undo the natural gas
burner orices, (marked #32)
(Fig. #31).
7. Apply a small amount of pipe joint
compound to the threads of the propane
burner orices (marked 180) to ensure a
good seal, before screwing them into the
manifold.
8. Reposition the manifold assembly and
fasten in place with screws previously
removed.

burner. With a 3/8” socket, loosen the nuts
securing the air shutters. Open primary air
shutters fully and retighten nuts(Fig# 32).
10. Secure burner to the base plate using the
4 screws previously removed.
11. With a 7/16” wrench loosen the pilot head
on the pilot assembly (Fig. #33).
12. Slide the pilot adjustment band over and
ensure that the hole in the orice band is
showing (Fig.#34indicates NG position, Fig.

Minimum
rate screw
13. Remove access panel, 10 screws, and set aside (Fig. #41)
14. Remove the minimum rate screw located in the valve. (Fig. #36).
Removing the Minimum Rate Screw
The minimum rate screw is sealed with an o-ring near the bottom of the screw.
Use a thin bladed screwdriver to back the screw out to the limit of the threading.
At this point, a groove on the screw body will be visible just above the valve body.
Insert a thin tool (knife blade or ne screwdriver blade) into the groove and gently
pry the screw up. It helps to rotate the screw while lifting on it. (Needle-nose pliers
are a help.).
15. Replace the minimum rate screw with the one provided in the propane conver-
sion kit supplied with this replace. Ensure that the screw is fully installed
(Fig. #37).
16. Unscrew the aluminum cap from the top of the pressure regulator (Fig. #38).
17. Press down on the center post and rotate 90°. The center post should stay
down (Fig. #39). Replace the aluminum cap.

18. Fill in the date and the name of the person who performed the conversion in the
white area on the conversion label. Peel off the protective backing and apply the
conversion label directly over the gas specications on the rating label.
19. Attach the access panel to the side of the rebox with the previously removed
screws. (Fig. #41)
Note: Gasket must be installed with access panel.
20.Continue with Burner installation(See Page 2).
1. Remove the plug from the pressure test port. The plug is located between the
right side lintel and rebox side (Fig. #42).
2. Thread the extension test tting into the open test port (Fig. #43).
3. Attach a pressure gauge onto the tting and check pressure.
4. When testing is complete, shut off the gas, remove the tting and replace the
pressure test port plug. Thread sealant will be required to ensure a gas tight
connection.
Note: To test the gas pressure, turn off the gas supply before removing the
pressure test port plug from the supply pressure test port or manifold pressure
test port.
