Turn the orifice CW to the end, then turn it CCW for one full turn and check the flame without the flame spreader in place. Normally it suppose to be about 1/2" length, distinct inner, blue flame. The air shutter should be full open for LP gas. If the flame is less than 1/2", unscrew the orifice as needed. Here are the break down diagrams for the Maytag range Model PGR5710BDQ Gene.
