Instilkg the Range

Your range, like many other household items, is heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. Be careful when moving the range on this type of flooring. It should be installed on a 1/4” thick sheet of plywood (or similar material) as follows:

Men the floor covering ends at the front of the range, the area that the range will rest on should be built up with plywood to the same level or higher than the floor covering. This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning or servicing.

Leveltig the Range

~veling screws maybe located on each comer of the base. By removing the bottom drawer you can level the range to an uneven floor by adjusting the leveling legs.

To remove the drawer, pull tie drawer out all the way, tilt up the front and remove it. To replace, insert the glides at the back of the tiawer beyond the stop on the range glides. Lift the drawer if necessary to insert it easily. Let the front of the drawer down, then push it in to close.
