Check the leveling of the range. Place a level inside the oven cavity across
the oven rack(s). Level front-to-back and side-to-side.
To adjust the leveling, tilt the range to one side and, using channel locks,
unscrew the adjustable leg insert as required. Repeat this procedure as
necessary for each leg.
Optional casters for this range are of the non-adjustable type. Therefore, the
floor must be level. If floor surface is not level, the range will experience
cooking problems.
GAS CONNECTIONS
CAUTION: All gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound used must
be resistant to the action of propane gases.
Each range is factory-equipped for the type gas specified on the rating plate. The
installation gas connection is a
3
/4
" (19 mm) 14 FPT ANSI schedule #40 standard
pipe. Connect gas supply. Make sure the pipes are clean and free of obstructions.
Codes require that a gas shutoff valve be installed in the gas line ahead of the
range. Standard ranges are equipped with fixed burner orifices which coincide with
installation elevation. Install the gas pressure regulator.
Before installing, ensure that regulator supplied agrees with rating plate gas
supply. The gas pressure regulator is
NOT
factory installed. The regulator for
this gas type is sealed within a plastic bag attached to the oven rack inside
the oven cavity. This regulator must be field installed by a qualified installer.
Natural gas regulators are preset for 5" W.C. (Water Column) (.99 kPa);
propane gas regulators for 10.0" W.C. (2.5 kPa)
1. Locate
3

" (19 mm) gas connection pipe extending from rear of range.
2. Cover pipe threads with leak sealant.
3. Screw regulator hand-tight onto pipe with regulator arrow pointing towards
range body back (Fig. 7).
4. Using pipe wrench, tighten regulator securely in an upright position (Fig. 7).
