Fuel flow to a gas oven burner is controlled by a manual rotary valve and a series flow arranged, electrically operated valve and is ignited by a ceramic glow igniter. The electrically operated valve and glow coil are series connected across a power source through a manual line switch and an adjustable temperature responsive switching means. A control knob, when rotated, rotates the manual rotary valve, actuates the line switch, and adjusts the temperature responsive switching means.read more
