If the information in these instructions is not followed exactly, a fire, explosion or production of car-bon 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 specified in the manufacturer’s instructions supplied with the kit.

CAUTION
The gas supply and electrical power shall be shut off before proceeding with the conversion.

Note: Factory supplied components must be used to ensure correct input. After conversion, confirm proper manifold pressure.

1. Ensure the burner, pilot and gas supply are turned off, and the appliance has cooled.

2. With a ½” wrench remove the natural gas orifice (Figure 17) and replace with propane orifice included in the SIT conversion kit.

3. Fully open the primary air shutter (Figure 18).

4. Remove the pilot shield from the burner tray by removing two screws (Figure 19).

5. With a 7/16” wrench loosen the pilot head on the pilot assembly by a half-turn (Figure 20).

6. Slide the pilot adjustment band over and ensure that the hole in the orifice band is showing. (Figure 21 indicates NG position, Figure 22 indicates LP position)

Burner Flame Adjustment

The air shutter on the burner inlet tube controls the primary combustion air to the gas burner and is pre-set to the closed position at the factory for natural gas fuel. Some adjustment may be necessary to obtain desired flame and to eliminate carbon deposits. Evaluate flame appearance after the fireplace has reached operating temperature. See Figure 24 for proper flame pattern.
Open primary air shutter if the glass and firebox have carbon accumulation and / or the flames are long, dark and stringy. The shutter may also be opened to lessen the flame height.
CAUTION: Burner area may be hot!
Turn off the fireplace and allow the unit to cool before proceeding.

Figure 24: Example of desirable flame.

To Adjust:

1. Open and remove window frame and set aside. See “Window Frame Removal” section found in the Installation and Operating Instructions manual.
2. Remove the lower rear panel and set aside.
3. Loosen the screw securing the primary air shutter.
4. Rotate the shutter to increase or decrease the amount of primary air.
5. Re-tighten the primary air shutter.
6. Reinstall lower rear panel.

The flame should be just orange and “lazy”. It should NEVER be set to create sooting on internal parts and glass.
