Adapting the hob to different types of gas
To adapt the Hob for use with different types of gas, carry out the following instructions:
— remove the grids and burners
— insert the hexagonal spanner (supplied) into the burner support (Fig. 5)
— unscrew the injector and replace it with one suitable for the gas to be used (see
Table of gas consumption)
— carry out regulation of the burner.

Regulating the burners
For maximum efficiency from the burners, the correct combustion of the flame is neces-
sary (see table of gas consumptions quota “X”). A good flame must be well aligned and
without yellow tips (Fig. 7/B). If there is insufficient air, the flame will be uneven with yel-
low tips (Fig. 7/A). If there is too much air, the flame will be very short and bright (Fig.
7/C). In these cases the combustion
must be adjusted by re-fitting the carburation tube to the Venturi (where there is insuffi-
cient air) or removing the carburation tube (in the case of too much air). To position the
carburation tube, the fixing screws must be loosened, and retightened when the satisfac-
tory combustion is obtained.

Regulating the minimum flame
After lighting the burners, turn the control knob to the minimum setting and then remo-
ve the knob (this can easily be removed by apply a gentle pressure).
Using a small «Terminal» type screwdriver the regulating screw can be adjusted as in
Fig. 8. Turning the screw clockwise reduces the gas flow, whilst turning it anticlockwise
increases the flow – Use this adjustment to obtain a flame of approximately 3 to 4 mm
in length and then replace the control knob.
If GPL (cylinder) gas is being used, turn the screw clockwise right to the end of the
travel of the by-pass.

When you have carried out the new gas regulation, replace the old gas rating pla-
te on your appliance with one (supplied with hob) suitable for the type of gas for
which it has been regulated.
Lubricating the gas taps
If a gas tap becomes stiff, it should be dismantled, cleaned carefully with petrol and
smeared with a drop of special heat resistant grease.
The following operations should be carried but:
— disconnect the electrical power supply, close the gas supply tap from the mains or
cylinder.
— Remove the knobs and the plate by removing the screws located at the rear of the
plate itself and beneath the individual burners.
— Remove the two screws holding down the head flange.
— Remove the head flange and the retaining spring on the knob shaft.
— Remove the gas regulation cone, clean it with petrol and smear it with some heat
resistant grease, taking care not to obstruct any holes through which gas must pass.
— Re-assemble all the parts, making sure that the spring and the rotating axis of the
cone fitted to the knob shaft are correctly seated.
