Converting your FireStar™ gas insert between natural gas and
LP can be accomplished by either changing the Quick Change
Cassette (valve and pilot assembly) or installing a conversion kit
(regulator, burner orifice and pilot orifice). Only a qualified service
technician should perform the conversion, as it requires discon-
necting the gas supply line and other procedures that should only
be performed by a qualified technician.
Cassette Removal
1. Be sure the gas supply is off and fan power cord is discon-
nected before beginning the conversion. Disconnect the gas
supply from the insert being careful not to apply pressure to
the valve in the process.
2. Remove the log set and brick panels, (see "Brick Panel & Log
Installation)
3. Remove the burner by lifting the left end and pulling the burner
gently through the block plate and past the pilot assembly.

4. Disconnect at the valve the two wire connectors from vent
safety snap switch (the uppermost black wire on terminal 1
and the black wire with the round connector located at the top
of the valve and behind the gas inlet elbow). Then disconnect
the thermostat (red and white wires) and rocker switch (black
wires) at terminals #1 & 3.
5. Remove the socket head screw attaching the cassette/body
block plate and block plate located in the bottom right end
of the firebox.
6. Remove the socket head screw fastening the pilot end of the
cassette to the burner holder.
7. Remove the three socket head screws holding the cassette
(valve/pilot assembly) to the body of the insert.
8. The cassette can now be removed by rotating the valve for-
ward and out to the right.
9. Install new, converted or serviced cassette in the reverse order
of removal. All parts and wires must be correctly reinstalled
to ensure safe and proper operation of the unit.
