INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
(SECTION I)
Vulcan RGT-10 Gas Convection Ovens are manufac-
tured for use with the type of gas specified on the
nameplate and for installation in accordance with
ANSZ223.1 (Latest Edition) National Fuel Gas Code.
Copies may be obtained from American Gas Association
Inc., 1515 Wilson Blvd., Arlington, Virginia 22209.
Vulcan ovens are produced with the best possible
workmanship and materials. Proper installation is vital if
best performance and appearance is to be achieved.
Please follow these instructions carefully.
1. Remove crating with care. Remove all wood
blocking, packing material and accessories.
2. Each unit is factory equipped and electrically
connected for use with type of gas and electric
supply indicated on rating plate behind the lower
panel. Check type of gas and electric supply
available.
3. Oven and leg stand are shipped assembled on
Model RGT-10 only. Position unit as near to final
location as possible.
4. Pipe joint compounds used when connecting ap-
pliances to gas should be resistant to the action of
LP. Gases.
5. Pipe joints should be tested for leaks with a soap
and water solution before operating the unit.
6. Connect oven to gas supply through shut-off
valve and gas pressure regulator provided.
Units for use on natural gas are equipped with a
regulator with a preset outlet pressure of 3.7" W.C.
Units for use on propane gas have a regulator with a
preset outlet pressure of 10.0" W.C. Regulator must
be mounted horizontally to provide the preset outlet
pressure. If regulator is mounted in any other
position, the outlet pressure must be reset.
(NOTE: Do not obstruct leak limiter on gas pressure
regulator.)
7. Connect oven to electric supply. 115 volt ovens
single phase units are equipped with a 7 ft. 3 wire
including ground supply cord. 208/240 volt units
with single or three phase motors are provided with
terminal block.
8. Install draft diverter or low profile deflector. Either a
draft diverter or low profile deflector is shipped with
every oven. Low profile deflector is intended for
use when oven is installed under canopy type
hoods. When oven is directly connected to vent
system, down draft diverter must be used.
9. Install oven rack supports. Insert hooks (3) into slots
provided in side linings. When mobile carriers or
basket dollies are to be used, the standard oven racks
and supports are left out.
A. The cart used to transport mobile carriers and
basket dollies has a guide and locking device to
align runners on cart with runners on oven deck.
B. When using 18 x 26 pans with single rack carrier,
the racks are not required. Engage 18 x 26 pan
rim on rack carrier runners. The oven deck height
should now be adjusted to align with cart height.
10. Using a carpenter level placed on a rack, adjust the
feet on the bottom of each leg, so that oven is level
from front to back and side to side. This must be done
with either standard rack supports or optional extra
mobile carriers when used.
(NOTE: Level oven when in permanent position only.)
11. Turn on gas. Purge gas line to remove air. Check for
leaks.
CAUTION:
Use soap solution or similar means (do
not check with open flame).
