Step 3: Unpacking, Moving
and Placing the Range
CAUTION:
The unit is heavy and should be handled
accordingly. Proper safety equipment such as
gloves and adequate manpower of at least
two people must be used in moving the range
to avoid injury and to avoid damage to the
unit or the floor. Rings, watches, and any
other loose items that may damage the unit
or otherwise might become entangled with
the unit should be removed.
Hidden surfaces may have sharp edges. Use
caution when reaching behind or under
appliance.
CAUTION:
DO NOT lift the range by the oven door's handle, as this
may damage the door hinges and cause the door to fit
incorrectly.
CAUTION:
Do not use a hand truck or appliance dolly on
the back or front of the unit. Handle from the
side only.
,_ Remove all tape and packaging before using the
_11 _1_ appliance. Please, recycle the packaging
material, as all THERMADOR ® appliance
packaging material is recyclable. Never allow
children to play with packaging material.
1. Remove the outer carton and packing materials from
the shipping pallet but leave the adhesive-backed foam
layer over brushed-metal surfaces, to protect finish
from scratches, until the range is installed in its final
position.
2. The range has an approximate shipping weight as
shown in Chart A. It is recommended that the grates,
griddle plate, burner caps and oven racks be removed
to facilitate handling. This will reduce the weight as
shown in Chart A. Do not remove the griddle
assembly.

3. The ranges are held to the pallet by four (4) bolts (see
Figure 5). The front kick panel must be removed to
access the bolts in the front of the pallet (see Figure 4).
To remove the Kick Panel, remove the two screws
below the lower corners of the oven cavity and lift the
Kick Panel away from the two projections on the
range's cast base (see also "Kick Panel Adjustment" on
page 26).
-- The electric wire diagrams and schematics are
attached behind the kick panel, and should not be
removed except by a service technician, then
replaced after use.
