ELECTRICAL CONNECTION WITH CONDUIT
Use 1/2” (1.3 cm) trade size conduit with a conduit clamp, 12
AWG/600 volt copper conductor colored red for line 1 and black
for line 2 and 14 AWG/600 volt copper conductor colored white
for neutral with closed loop terminals marked for use with ranges.
Where local codes do not permit grounding through neutral, use a
green 12 AWG copper conductor as directed in the 4-wire
connector directions. The conduit must be secured to the range
with the strain relief bracket. The electrical connection is made at
the terminal block which is located behind the access door on the
back of the range.
3-Wire Power Connection
1. Remove access door.
2. Remove strain relief mounting angle and reattach as shown.
3. Feed 1/2” (1.3 cm) trade size conduit through the hole in the
bottom of the range back and secure to the strain relief bracket
with a conduit clamp.
4. Feed line #1 (red 12 AWG/600v copper conductor), line #2
(black 12 AWG/600v copper conductor) and neutral (white 14
AWG/600v copper conductor) through conduit and attach
closed loop terminals marked of use with range.
5. Remove 3 mounting screws and attach line #1 (red) to the left
terminal line #2 (black) to the right terminal, the neutral wire
(white) to the center terminal.
6. Reattach the access door.
4-Wire Power Connection
1. Remove access door.
2. Remove strain relief mounting angle and reattach as shown.
3. Feed 1/2” (1.3 cm) trade size conduit through the hole in the
bottom of the range back and secure to the strain relief bracket
with a conduit clamp.
4. Feed line #1 (red 12 AWG/600v copper conductor), line #2
(black 12 AWG/600v copper conductor), neutral (white 14
AWG/600v copper conductor) and grounding wire (green 12
AWG copper conductor) through conduit and attach closed
loop terminals marked of use with range. (Terminal is not
required on grounding wire if used with ground washer.
5. Remove 3 mounting screws and green grounding screw. Cut
off and discard ground strap. Attach line #1 (red) to the left
terminal, line #2 (black) to the right terminal, the neutral wire
(white) tothe center terminal and the copper ground wire to the
green grounding screw using the ground washer.
6. Reattach the access door.

IMPORTANT: LEVELING/ADJUSTMENTS/ALIGNMENT
Closely follow the procedures below to ensure proper performance and appearance of the range.
1. If the floor is smooth and level, level the unit with the screw thread of the legs. Set the high corner of the range so
that the the top of the grate support is 3/8” (.95cm) above the countertop, and level the range to the high corner.
2. If the floor is uneven or has a decided slope, level the unit with metal shims, as the adjustment required may exceed
the thread available in the leg.
3. After the range is properly leveled, the drip tray handle may be aligned by loosening the screws and adjusting the
handle horizontally within the limits provided by the slotted screw holes.
4. A level should be placed across the top of the range and the unit leveled both front-to-back and side-to-side. If it is
not level, burner combustion may be erratic, liquid, or semi-liquid batters will cook at an angle, and the unit may
not function efficiently.

All ranges are tested before leaving the factory. When the range is connected to the electrical service, the installer
should use the “Performance Checklist” for his final checks.
When adjustments are required, contact your dealer/installer for corrections. If assistance is not available, contact
Viking Range Corporation Preferred Service for the nearest authorized service agent at (888) 845-4641. All corrections
to installation are the responsibility of the dealer/installer or end user.
