DCS RDS-305, Installation Manual

UNPACKING AND HANDLING

6

CAUTION:

Proper equipment and adequate manpower must be used in moving the range
to avoid damage to the unit or the floor. The unit is heavy and rests on
adjustable steel legs.

WARNING:

DO NOT lift range by the oven door handles!! 

WARNING:

DO NOT remove the grill or griddle assemblies!! 

It may be necessary to remove the oven doors and
knobs to pass through some doorways. With the
doors and knobs removed, a 29 1/16” (RDS 36/48)
29 3/8” (RDS 305) wide opening is required.
Without removing the door, a 31 1/2” (RDS 36/48) /
30” (RDS 305) wide opening is required. Remove
the outer carton and packing material from the
shipping base.

Remove the kick panel by removing two screws at
the top and pulling forward. The range is held to
the skid by two bolts in the front behind the kick
panel, (fig. 1) and two L-brackets located on the
bottom flange of the range back (fig . 2). After
removing the bolts and brackets, the range must be
lifted and removed from the skid.

Due to the weight, a dolly with soft wheels should
be used to move this unit. The weight must be
supported, uniformly across the bottom (fig. 3). To
remove the door, open the door and hold it all the
way open. Close the hinge latches (fig. 4) and
release the door. The door can then be removed by
gently lifting and pulling the door, with the hinges
up and out of the frame.

The professional range should be transported by a
dolly close to its final location. The range can be
tipped back and supported on the rear legs while
the dolly is removed. The floor under the legs
should be protected (Wood Strips, Carpet, Paneling,
etc.) before pushing the unit back into position.
