UNPACKING AND HANDLING

MOVING AND PLACING THE RANGE (continued)

Electric and gas connections should be made before the range is slid into the cabinet opening (see pages 13). If installing a full backguard with the range, it should also be installed before the range is placed in its final position (refer to pages 15). For proper performance, the professional range should be level. To achieve a flush fit of the range to adjoining countertops, it will be necessary to have level cabinets (front to back, and left to right across opening of the range). After checking the countertops are level and before sliding the range into place, measure the distance from the floor to the top of the counter work surface in the rear left and right corners. Adjust the corresponding rear corner of the range to an equal height of the counter, as the rear leveling legs are not accessible once the range is pushed into place. Once the range is in place, the front leg levelers can be accessed to level the front of the range. Replace the kick panel and oven doors by reversing the procedure described previously. It is important that the two screws retaining the kick panel are secure to prevent accidental access to live electrical components and wires (Fig. 02).

Anti-tip device should be installed (see page 12 for instructions). The professional range should be transported by a dolly close to its final location. The range can be tipped back and supported on the rear legs while the dolly is removed. The floor under the legs should be protected (wood strips, carpet, paneling, etc.) before pushing the unit back into position.

Note:

For ease of installation, be sure to install venthood and backguard system before sliding range into position.

CAUTION:

Before using the range, be sure to remove shipping spacer insert in the broiler (see Fig. 03).

To remove the kick panel:

Removing two screws at the top and pulling forward. The range is held to the skid by L-brackets in the front behind the kick panel, (Fig. 02) and two L-brackets located on the bottom flange of the range back (Fig. 04). After removing the brackets, the range must be lifted and removed from the skid.

Due to the weight, a dolly with soft wheels should be used to move this unit. The weight must be supported, uniformly across the bottom (Fig. 05).

WARNING!

Do not lift oven door by the handle - will cause damage! Be sure the oven and door are cool before you begin to remove the door!
