CHECKING FOR MANIFOLD GAS PRESSURE
To check the manifold gas pressure, remove the burner cap and connect a
manometer(watergauge)orotherpressuretestdevicetotheburnerorice.Usea
rubber hose with inside diameter of approximately ¼” hold the end of the hose tight
overtheorice.Turnthegasvalveon.Foramoreaccuratepressurecheck,haveat
least two (2) other top burners burning. Be sure that the gas supply (inlet) pressure
isatleastoneinchabovethespeciedmanifoldpressure.Maximumgassupply
pressure must not exceed 14” inch water column, minimum gas supply pressure
must be 1” inch water column above recommended pressure, 12” for propane gas,
and 5” water column for natural gas. When properly adjusted the manifold water
column pressure is 11” for LP/propane gas or 5” for natural gas.

Once you have completed the conversion,
check the operations of ignition making sure
eachofthe4burners,pilotameandoven
burneramearefunctioningcorrectly.Please
refer to pages 30 thrgugh 35 – Operation of
Range.
High Altitude Applications above 2000 feet:
At elevations above 2,000 feet, the range must be derated 4% for each 1,000 foot
above sea level. It is the installer’s responsibility to see that the range’s input rate is
adjusted properly.
