installations, replace silver plate with red/white propane plate.
DO NOT use electric or
pneumatic screwdrivers
to
remove or tighten the gas/air boss
screws. Hand-tighten only, using
manual screwdriver. Should the
torque exceed 40 inch-pounds, the
threaded holes could strip out, causing
an inadequate seal of the orifice plate.
Failure to properly seal the plate to
the housing could result in a gas leak,
causing severe personal injury, death
or substantial property damage.
