UNITS MOUNTED ON CASTERS

Units mounted on casters utilizing a flex hose and quick-disconnect must be installed with a restraining device. The restraining device must be connected at all times. If disconnection of the device is necessary, turn off the gas supply before disconnection. Reconnect the restraint before turning the gas supply on and returning the unit to its original installation position and before beginning unit operation.

SERVICING SIMPLE CHECKS AND ADJUSTMENTS

The following is a list of simple checks and adjustments which are commonly associated with the malfunctioning of this equipment. Perform these checks and adjustments for relevant unit symptoms before the removal of any major parts or controls. Any service related questions for these units can be answered by calling the number on the front of this manual.

CHECKS

1.Check the unit rating plate and verify that the gas type, pressure rating and voltage ratings (if applicable) are correct for the unit and the installation site affected. If not correct, make required adjustments.

2.Ensure that all unit and main gas and electrical supply lines are connected properly. (For electrical problems, check for tripped circuit breakers.)

ADJUSTMENTS

1.Legs/Casters

TOOLS REQUIRED: Carpenter’s level, channel locks.

If the cooked product seems to be lopsided, check the leveling of the unit. Place a carpenter’s level inside the oven cavity across the oven rack(s). Level the unit from front to back and from side to side.

To adjust the leveling of the unit, tilt the unit to one side and, using channel locks, unscrew the adjustable leg insert as required. Repeat this procedure as necessary for each leg.

NOTE: Casters for this range are of the non-leveling type. Therefore, the surface which the unit is resting on must be level. If floor surface is not level, the unit will experience cooking problems until the range is level.

Check the unit leveling again before leaving the store to ensure that the problem has been corrected.
