Step 1

Turn the manual shutoff to the “Off” position. The shutoff will be near the wall and is off when the valve is at right angles to the pipe. Then, unplug the power and open the broiler door and remove the broiler pan.

Step 2

Remove the cap from the gas pressure regulator at the back of the broiler on the right. Use the screwdriver but don’t remove the actual regulator or spring under the cap. Turn the cap over so that “NAT” shows, then reinstall the cap.

Step 3

Take off the burner grates, burner caps and burners by lifting them off. Then, remove the LP gas spuds with the wrench. You can identify them because they’ll look similar to the three natural gas spuds that are labeled “149” and one “165.” Insert the new spuds. The spud labeled “165” inserts in the power burner or the left, front burner.

Step 4

Convert the oven burner by lifting the oven burner and removing the oven orifice spud that’s behind the oven burner air shutter with the 3/8-inch wrench, then replace it with the spud labeled “47.”
