Remove house fuse or open circuit
breaker.

Loosen screws for the junction box
cover and rotate out of place or remove
the cover.

Examine the junction box location to
determine the best routing of the
conduit, and select the best available
7/8

 diameter knockout. Avoid using

holes in the top of the junction box to
prevent the conduit from interfering
with the back of the range.

Break open the selected knockout by
placing a bladed screwdriver on the
scored opening in the junction box and
striking the screwdriver with a hammer.
(Pliers may be required to complete the
removal of the knockout.)

Installation Instructions

GENERAL NOTE FOR ALL WIRE NUT
APPLICATIONS: THE PROPER SIZE WIRE
NUT SHALL BE PLACED OVER THE

TWISTED UNTIL THE WIRE NUT CAN
NOT BE PULLED FROM THE LEADS.
NO CONDUCTOR SHALL BE EXPOSED
IN THE CONNECTION. THE EXCEPTION
TO THE CONDUCTOR BEING EXPOSED

Position the range in front of the
opening, but slightly to the side,
in a manner so that a person can enter
the opening to wire the range to the
house wiring in the junction box.

Feed wires and conduit through the
open hole and snap the conduit fitting
into the hole. Route the conduit in a
manner that will not interfere with the
rear wire cover. The conduit must be
routed below the wire cover.
