Vulcan-Hart EG160 ML-52489, MODEL EG36, EG48 ML-114956, EG260 ML-52490 Leveling, Gas Connections

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 of gas specified on the rating 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.

Ranges are equipped with fixed burner orifices which coincide with installation elevation.

Before installing the gas pressure regulator, ensure that the regulator supplied agrees with rating plate gas supply.

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 installed by a qualified installer.

Natural gas regulators are preset for 3.7" W.C. (Water Column) (0.9 kPa); propane gas regulators are preset for 10.0" W.C. (2.5 kPa).

Install the gas pressure regulator.

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

2.Cover pipe threads with leak sealant.

3.Screw regulator hand-tight onto pipe with regulator arrow pointing towards range body back (Fig. 12).

4.Using a pipe wrench, tighten regulator securely in an upright position (Fig. 12).

The arrow on the regulator shows the direction of the gas flow (Fig. 12). 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.
