MOVING AND PLACING THE RANGE (cont.)
Electric and gas connections should be made before the
range is slid into the cabinet opening (see pages 14~18). If
installing a full backguard with the range, it should also be
installed before the range is placed in its final position (refer
to pages 8 & 17). For proper performance, the professional
range should be level. To achieve a flush fit of the range to
adjoining countertops, it will be necessary to have level
cabinets (front to back, and left to right across opening of the
range). After checking the countertops for level and before
sliding the range into place, measure the distance from the
floor to the top of the counter work surface in the rear left
and right corners. Adjust the corresponding rear corner of
the range to an equal height of the counter, as the rear
leveling legs are not accessible once the range is pushed into
place. Once the range is in place, the front leg levelers can
be accessed to level the front of the range. Replace the kick
panel and oven doors by reversing the procedure described
previously. It is important that the two screws retaining the
kick panel are secure to prevent accidental access to live
electrical components and wires (fig. 2).
Anti-tip device should be installed (see page 13 for
instructions). The professional range should be transported
8by 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.
To remove the kick panel:
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. 2) and two L-brackets located on the bottom
flange of the range back (fig. 3). 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. 4).
