Use this method for new installations, mobile homes, recreational vehicles, and whenever four-wire installation is required.

10.Remove the ground-link screw from the range frame. Save the ground- link screw and cup washer. Bend up the ground link so that it does not contact the range. See Figures 1 and 2.

11.Connect the green ground wire from power supply cable to the range using the ground screw and cup washer. The ground wire must be attached first and must not contact any other terminal. See Figure 2.

12.Loosen (do not remove) the 3 slotted set screws. Insert the neutral (white) wire into the hole at the bottom of the center position terminal lug (attached to center terminal screw black terminal block). See Figure 2.

13.Connect the other two wires (lines 1 and 2) to the outer aluminum terminal lugs.

14.Securely tighten the set screws. For 8 gauge copper wire, tighten to

25 in/lbs of torque, and for 6 gauge aluminum wire, tighten to 35 in/lbs of torque to make a proper electrical connection. See Figure 2.

15.Tighten the locking ring and clamping screws of the conduit connector.

16.Replace the terminal block cover.

10.Loosen (do not remove) the 3 slotted set screws. Insert the neutral (white) wire into the hole at the bottom of the center position terminal lug (attached to center terminal screw of terminal block). See Figure 3.

11.Connect the other two wires (lines 1 and 2) to the outer aluminum terminal lugs.

12.Securely tighten the set screws. For 8 gauge copper wire, tighten to

25 in/lbs of torque, and for 6 gauge aluminum wire, tighten to 35 in/lbs of torque to make a proper electrical connection. See Figure 3.

13.Tighten the locking ring and clamping screws of the conduit connector.

14.Replace the terminal block cover.
