MOVING AND PLACING THE RANGE (cont.)
Anti-tip device should be installed (see section 'Installing anti-tip
device' for instructions). The professional range should be
transported by a dolly close to its final location. The range can
be tipped back and supported on the rear legs while the dolly is
removed. The floor under the legs should be protected (wood
strips, carpet, paneling, etc.) before pushing the unit back into
position.
Electric and gas connections should be made before the range is
slid into the cabinet opening (see sections 'Electrical connections'
and 'Gas hook-up'). If installing a full backguard with the range,
it should also be installed before the range is placed in its final
position (see sections 'Planning the installation' and 'Backguard
installation'). For proper performance, the professional range
should be level. Flooring in cabinet opening must be at the
same level as flooring located in front of the cabinets. To achieve
a flush fit of the range to adjoining countertops, it will be
necessary to have level cabinets (front to back, and left to right
across opening of the range). After checking the countertops
for level and before sliding the range into place, measure the
distance from the floor to the top of the counter work surface
in the rear left and right corners. Adjust the corresponding rear
corner of the range to an equal height of the counter, as the rear
leveling legs are not accessible once the range is pushed into
place. Once the range is in place, the front leg levelers can be
accessed to level the front of the range. Replace the kick panel
and oven doors by reversing the procedure described further
below. It is important that the two screws retaining the kick
panel are secure to prevent accidental access to live electrical
components and wires (Fig. 2a).
To remove the kick panel:
Remove two screws at the top and pull forward. The range
is held to the skid by two bolts (RGU & RDU models) or by
L-brackets (RGUC models) in the front, behind the kick panel,
and two L-brackets located on the bottom flange of the range
back (Fig. 2b). After removing the bolts and brackets, the
range must be lifted and removed from the skid.
Due to the weight, a dolly with soft wheels should be used
to move this unit. The weight must be supported uniformly
across the bottom (Fig. 3).
CAUTION:
Before using the range, be sure to remove shipping spacer
insert in the broiler (see Fig. 4).
