Power Supply Locations

Gas Supply:

• The natural gas models are designed to operate at 6" to 14" water column pressure.
  •The liquid propane models are designed to operate at 11 to 14" water column pressure. A regulator is required at the L.P. source to provide a maximum of 14" water pressure to the range regulator.
  • These gas ranges are supplied with 1/2" NPT female gas connection located at the left rear corner.
• A minimum 5/8" dia. metal flexible line is required.
• For flexible connection, locate pipe stub on the back wall as illustrated. — Use 5-foot, 5/8" long flexible gas supply line.
• For rigid connection, locate the pipe stub as illustrated.
  • Install a manual shut-off valve in the gas line, in an easily accessible location.

Electric Supply:

These ranges must be supplied with 208/240 volt, 60 Hz., and connected to a individual, properly grounded branch circuit protected by a circuit breaker or time delay fuse (50 amp for 48" ranges, 30 amp for 36" ranges and 25 amps for 30" ranges). The receptacle must be a NEMA 14-50R devise to accept the 4-prong plug supplied with the range.

If the electrical service provided does not meet the above specifications, it is recommended that a licensed electrician install an approved outlet.

- Locate the electric supply as illustrated.

WARNING

The range is equipped for use with an electrical supply which uses a separate grounding conductor (4 wire system).

If this range must be connected to an electrical system which utilizes a single conductor for ground and neutral (3 wire system), the grounding jumper at the terminal block must be connected. The grounding jumper is located behind the front kick panel.

Green Red White Black Connect Here Terminal Block

To connect grounding jumper:

• Disconnect restraining clip holding jumper.
• Connect green jumper to open terminal on neutral (white) portion of the terminal block.

Step 1 Remove Packaging

Before moving the range indoors:

- Remove outer carton and packing material from the shipping base.

Kick Panel

- Remove the kick panel by removing 2 screws at the top and pulling forward.

Left Rear Shipping Screws

The range is secured to the skid with 2 bolts in the front and 2 "L" brackets on the bottom flange of the range back. Remove bolts and "L" brackets.

Door Hinge Roller Lock (Closed) Un-Lock

Remove oven doors:

• Open the door fully and hold down.
• Close the brass hinge latches to locked position on each side.
• Carefully, lift and pull the door away from the range and out of the frame.

Range Must be Uniformly Supported on Braces Leveling Legs 22"

Due to the weight of these ranges, use a dolly with soft wheels to move this range.

- Lift the range onto the dolly and move indoors.

To simplify handling and to reduce the weight of the range:

• Remove the grates and drawers below the knobs.
• Remove grill and griddle covers. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE A GRILL OR GRIDDLE ASSEMBLY.
• Remove the broiler pans/literature package from inside oven(s).

Step Remove Packaging (continued)

36" and 48" Wide Models:

- Remove the panel from the rear of the shipping pack. Lay the panel on the floor directly in front of the installation location. The range should be placed on this panel to prevent damage to the floor.

All Models:

- Remove the two strips from the oven interior. Place the strips on the floor at the left and right sides of the installation location. These strips provide a surface for sliding the range into the final position and will prevent damage to the floor. The leveling legs must rest permanently on these runner strips.

Range Opening Runners To Support Leveling Legs Panel

Step 2 Level the Range

Note: Rear range leveling legs are not accessible after installation.

- Check to be sure the adjoining cabinets/ countertops are level, front to back and left to right across the opening of the range.

- Measure the distance from the floor to the top of the countertop in the left and right rear corners.

- Adjust the height of the range to countertop height or higher.

IMPORTANT: The range should always be installed at countertop height or higher. DO NOT INSTALL THE RANGE LOWER THAN ADJACENT COUNTERTOP HEIGHT.

Step

Install Anti-Tip Device

WARNING • All Ranges Can Tip • Injury Could Result • Install Anti-Tip Bracket Provided • See Instructions

The anti-tip bracket is designed to be installed on top of the slide (runners) provided with the range. Any other type of construction may require special installation techniques to insure adequate fastening of the anti-tip bracket to the floor or wall.

- The bracket must be properly installed to prevent tipping of the range.

- Read the AHAM Anti-Tip Safety brochure packed with the product.

All Ranges must have an anti-tip device correctly installed according to these instructions.

- If the range is pulled out from the wall for any reason, make sure that the device is properly engaged when pushed back against the wall or installation position. - If the anti-tip device is not engaged, there is a possible risk that the range can tip over and cause injury if you or a child stand, sit or lean on an open door.

Step 7

Slide the Range Into Position

Plug power cord into properly grounded receptacle.

• Carefully, slide the range into position.
• Be careful not to entange power cord and gas flexible tubing.
• Be sure the right rear leg is engaged in the slot of the installed anti-tip bracket.
• Check for proper installation by grasping the range at the top front edge and carefully attempt to tilt the range forward.
• Check to be sure the front of the range is level. Adjust front leveling legs accordingly.
  -Replace the front kick panel by reversing the procedure described in Step 1.

Step 8

Replace Oven Door(s)

To replace the oven doors:

• Slide the hinges into the openings. The hinge should rest in the center of each hinge roller.
• Open the door fully and unlock hinge latches.

CAUTION: Take care when replacing the oven doors. If the hinge latch is not securely locked, the hinge may snap back and separate. If the hinge separates, you must apply pressure (possibly with your foot) to press it back together and then engage the brass hinge latch.

Step 9 Assemble & Adjust Burners

-Replace the burner bowls and burner caps.
- Adjustments should not be required, unless vibration during transit or variations in local gas supply make minor adjustments necessary.

CAUTION: Burner adjustments must be made by a qualified technician at the time of installation. Extreme care should be used if adjustments are made after installation.

- Burner flames should be blue and stable with no yellow or yellow tips, excessive noise or lifting of the flame from the burner. If any of these conditions exist, check that the air shutter or burner ports are not blocked. If one of these conditions continues, adjust the air shutter as required.

-If the flame is too yellow, there is insufficient air flow, adjust the shutter counterclockwise to increase air inlet.
-If the flame is noisy or tends to lift away from the burner, there is too much air. Turn the shutter clockwise to reduce air.

Step 10 Adjustable Low Setting

The open top burners and grill valves have an adjustable low setting. Each valve is individually tested and adjusted before it is shipped. Minor adjustments may be required due to fluctuations in local gas pressure. Adjustments to increase or decrease gas flow may be necessary.

• Turn knob counter-clockwise to the LITE position.
• Once lit, turn the know back to the “LOW” position.
• Remove the knob.
• Insert a thin-blade flat screwdriver into the valve shaft. (3/32" blade with recommended.)
  •Grip the shaft with pliers and turn the

Technical line drawing of a tool with a screwdriver and clamping mechanism (no text or symbols)

screwdriver counter-clockwise to lower the flame, or clockwise to increase the flame. CAUTION: Do not turn the flame so low that it goes out, causing the igniter to spark.

- When the desired setting is made, replace the knob and turn burner off.

Finalize Installation

Place the burner grates into operating position. Press corner of the grate to the cooktop. The grates should be seated and should not rock.

Models equipped with grill and griddle:

- The grill and griddle are secured with screws at the front. They are designed to be stationary and should not to be removed.

- The griddle has two leveling screws beneath the rear flue cover which can be used to adjust to the desired slope. The center screw is for shipping purposes only and should be removed.
