INSTALLATION PROVISIONS MUST BE MADE rOR ADEQUATE AIR SUPPLY TO THE UNIT. VENTILATING HOOD The range (s) must be in�talled under a properly designed ventilating hood. The hood should extend at least 6" beyond all sides of the unit. The hood should be connected to an adequate mechan�cal exhaust system. Information on the construction and installation of ventilating hoods may be obtained from the "Standard for the Installation of Equipment for the Removal of Smoke and Grease Laden Vapors from Commercial Cooking Equip...

INSTALLATION BURNER ADJUSTMENT The efficiency of the range depends on a delicate balance between the supply of air and volume of gas so that complete combustion is achieved. Whenever this balance is disturbed, poor operating characteristics occur. The air supply is controlled by an air shutter on the front of the burner.

OPERATION procedures and techniques may require some modification for successful results. A general rule which will assist in better operation, is cooking time will be less and temperatures should be 25 to 75 degrees lower than those called for in standard recipes. For convection oven cooking, reduce temperature 25 to 75 degrees from those given in standard recipes.

MAINTENANCE CAUTION DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE CLEANING OR SERVICING. EACH OVEN SECTION HAS A SEPARATE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY CONNECTION. CARE AND CLEANING The complete range should be given a periodic general cleaning. Lint and grease suspended in the air tend to collect in passages. Therefore, all flueways, air passages and openings, burner ports, primary air openings, etc.

(3 ) Reapply if not entirely removed (any film remaining over top of material will prevent self-cleaning action.) (4) If necessary, apply Montague Oven Cleaner with a hard nylon brush. (5) Remove loosened particles with a damp cloth. Note: Steam may be used where it is available.
Page 18
MAINTENANCE WEEKLY: Open Top Section should be washed in a solution of washing soda and water (after they are entirely cooled). Remove and wash drip pan under burners. Brush burner head weekly with a stiff wire brush and clean clogged ports with stiff wire or ice pick.
