LEVELING

LEVELING

Check the leveling of the range. Place a carpenter's level inside the oven cavity across the oven rack(s). Level front-to-back and side-to-side.

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

Casters for this range are of the non-adjustable type. Therefore, the floor must be level. If floor surface is not level, the range will experience cooking problems.

GAS CONNECTIONS

CAUTION: All gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound used must be resistant to the action of propane gases.

Each range is factory-equipped for the type gas specified on the data plate. The installation gas connection is a 3/4" 14 FPT ANSI schedule #40 standard pipe.

Connect gas supply. Make sure the pipes are clean and free of obstructions.

Codes require that a gas shutoff valve be installed in the gas line ahead of the range.

Standard ranges are equipped with fixed burner orifices which coincide with installation elevation.

GAS PRESSURE REGULATOR

Before installing, ensure that regulator supplied agrees with the range data plate gas supply.

The gas pressure regulator is NOT factory installed. The regulator for this gas type is sealed within a plastic bag attached to the oven rack inside the oven cavity. This regulator must be field installed by a qualified installer.

Natural gas regulators are preset for 3.7" W.C. (Water Column); propane gas regulators for 10.0" W.C.

The arrow on the regulator shows the direction of the gas flow (Fig. 10). The pressure regulator must be mounted horizontally to ensure proper preset outlet pressure. If the regulator is installed in any other position, the outlet pressure must be reset for proper operation.

1.Locate 3/4" gas connection pipe extending from rear of range.

2.Cover pipe threads with pipe joint compound.

3.Screw regulator hand-tight onto pipe with regulator arrow pointing towards range body back (Fig. 10).

4.Using pipe wrench, tighten regulator securely in an upright position (Fig. 10).

5.From this point on, continue with normal gas line connection procedures.

A leak limiter is supplied with every regulator to allow excess gas pressure to escape. Do not obstruct leak limiter on gas pressure regulator as obstruction may cause regulator to malfunction.
