CONVERT SURFACE BURNER AIR
SHUTTER
(on some models)
For LP gas, loosen the Phillips head screw and
rotate the shutter to the full open position. After
30 seconds of burner operation, check for flames
lifting off burner ports. If lifting is observed,
gradually reduce air shutter opening until flames
are stabilized. After making the conversion,
tighten the screw.
For natural gas, the shutter should be open
1/2" or about 3/4 of the way open.
