BB. TO CONVERT DRYER FROM NATURAL GAS TO LIQUID PROPANE (L.P.)
GAS
1. Discontinue power to the dryer.
2. Close
ALL gas shutoff valves in gas supply line to the dryer.
3. Remove the lint drawer, the control/lint door, and the gas valve train assembly from dryer (follow Gas
Valve Train Removal Procedure in
Section C).

manifold bracket to the gas valve train slide.
5. Pull manifold/valve assembly back slightly, so that the burner orifice is exposed.
6. Unscrew burner orifice and replace with L.P. orifice.
IMPORTANT: Use extreme care when removing and replacing orifice. THIS ORIFICE IS
MADE OF BRASS, WHICH IS EASILY DAMAGED.
NOTE: Consult factory when replacing orifice for elevations over 2,000 feet (609.6 meters).

regulated at the source (L.P. tank) or a regulator must be added in the gas supply line
of each dryer. A consistent water column (W.C.) pressure of 10.5 to 11.0 inches
(26.1 to 27.4 mb) must be provided.
