NOTICE 

For an appliance equipped with casters, (1) the installation shall be made with a connector and a quick-
disconnect device that complies with the applicable local or national codes, (2) adequate means must be 
provided to limit the movement of the appliance without depending on the connector and the quick-disconnect 
device or its associated piping to limit the appliance movement, and (3) the restraining means should be 
attached to a frame member on the back of the range. 

A set of four casters is packed with ranges ordered with casters (instead of legs).  
A threaded leg pad is fastened to the base frame at each corner. Each caster has a corresponding mating thread. The 
casters can be adjusted to overcome a slightly uneven floor. Casters are provided with a Zerk fitting for proper 
lubrication when required. 

1.  Raise range sufficiently to allow leg pads and casters to be attached. For safety, “shore up” and support the 

range with an adequate blocking arrangement strong enough to support the load. 

2.  Attach the four leg pads to the bottom of the range using the lock washers and machine screws.  The 

mounting holes are pre-drilled and threaded. 

3.  Screw the casters into the holes in the centers of the leg pads. Install the casters that have a locking brake 

under the front of the range. 

4.  Lower range gently onto a level surface. Never drop or allow the range to fall. 
5.  Use a level to make sure that the range surface is level. The casters can be screwed in or out to lower or raise 

each corner of the range.  After the range has been leveled, tighten the lock nuts.

Installation of Casters 

6.  Secure the restraining-device bracket (item “B” in the following illustration) to a wall stud located as close as 

possible to the appliance connector inlet and outlet connections. Use four #12 screws (items “C”) and plastic 
anchors (items “A”) if necessary. 

7.  Install eye-bolt (item “F”) to a frame member on the rear of the equipment. After checking carefully behind the 

frame member for adequate clearance, drill a 7 mm hole through the frame member. 

8.  Thread hex nut (item “G”) and slide the washer (item “H”) onto the eye-bolt. Insert the eye-bolt through the 7 

mm drilled hole and secure with a washer (item “H”) and nylon lock nut (item “I”). 

9.  Using the spring-loaded snap hooks, attach the restraining device to the bracket and the eye-bolt.
