Modulating Gas Valve

For  proper  operation  and  long  term  reliability,  the  manifold  pressure

must be adjusted as specified on the conversion kit rating plate.

CAUTION

!

UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in gas valve damage.
Do not force the rotary adjustment switch on the modulating gas valve.

Do  not  turn  the  rotary  adjustment  switch  faster  than  one  click  per

second when adjusting manifold pressure. Gas valve will be damaged if

excessive force is used on the rotary switch.
