TO RAISE OR REMOVE COOK TOP

Remove 4 burner caps and 4 burner heads

Remove 4 electrodes (pull up on the electrode while gently rotating at the same time) & disconnect electrode leads.

Remove (12) T-15 torx screws which mount the orifice holders to the cook top

Disengage the 2 front clips using a flat screw driver and gently raise the top high enough for the prop rods to hold it upright.

FOR REMOVAL:

Disengage the prop rods from the range slide panels

While raising the front of the cooktop, lower the rear of the cook top and shift the top left or right in order to disengage the hinge pins at the rear.

IMPORTANT COOK TOP REINSTALLATION NOTES:

Before lowering the top onto the front clips, feed the electrode leads through each opening in the cook top. Next be sure that the electrode clips are inserted into each of the orifice brackets (see illustration below). Line up the orifice brackets with the holes in the cook-top and start the screws, which secure the cook-top to the orifice holders. Before tightening the screws be sure to check the electrode leads to ensure that they do not get pinched between the cook top and the orifice holder. Reconnect the electrode wires and gently push each of the electrodes into position.

When reinstalling the top, position the top to be the equivalent of 1/2 way lowered, before attempting to insert the top hinge pins into the corresponding slots on the back-guard.

BURNER HEAD

The burner head has a flame stability chamber which protects a small pocket of flame. This small pocket of flame provides quick reignition, in the event of a minor burner flame outage during simmer. It also provides an additional measure of safety.

The burner head also provides a positive target area for the Ignitor.

	ORIFICE

Each electrode pushes into a clip (compression sleeve), which mounts to each of the four orifice holders. This allows the electrode to be removed without lifting the

top. To remove the electrode, grasp it with your finger and thumb and pull upward. A slight twisting action may help in removing

the electrode. All four electrodes MUST be removed prior to lifting the top.

HOLDER, ORIFICE

To improve alignment and stability the 4 burner orifice brackets (holders) have been modified. The brackets are mounted to the cooktop with three "T-15" torx screws. The screw heads are located under the burner head. These screws MUST be removed prior to lifting the cooktop. The rigid mounting system ensures proper alignment of the orifice for gas to be injected into the burner head.
