GE Monogram Professional Rangetop Installation, Cut The Countertop Opening

Installation

STEP 1 CUT THE COUNTERTOP OPENING

48" wide models are designed to fit in 48" or wider base cabinets

Measure carefully when cutting the countertop. Make sure sides of the opening are parallel.

•Allow 8” free space below the top surface of the countertop.

•Allow additional clearances below the burner box to install the regulator and make house supply connections. Use a 90° elbow to route the gas connections and limit interference with drawers or other cabinetry features.

•These rangetops are designed to hang from the countertop by their side flanges.

•Smooth any rough edges on the countertop before installing the rangetop.

– Formica countertop edges must be finished.

The countertop must be strong enough to support the weight of the rangetop.
