Range Placement
To eliminate the risk of burns or fire from
reaching over heated surface units, cabinet storage
space located above the range should be avoided. If
cabinet storage space is to be provided, the risk can be
reduced by installing a range hood that projects
horizontally a minimum of 5" (12.7 cm) beyond the
bottom of the cabinet.
Gas
Supply Installation
When shipped from the factory, this unit is designed to
operate on 4"(10,16 cm) water column (1.0 kPa) Natural
gas manifold pressure. A convertible pressure regulator is
connected to the range manifold and MUST be connected
in series with the gas supply line. The regulator is located
as shown on figure 2 and it is accessible from front of the
range.
For proper operation,
the maximum inlet pressure to
the regulator should be no more than 14"(35,56 cm) of
water column pressure (3.5 kPa).

(see figure

(the location

against
the wall), draw
a line on the floor
where the back edge of the range will
be. Now install
anti-tip
bracket
(see "Anti-Tip
Bracket
Installation",
page 10).
If range will be installed with a cabinet
on one side
only, move the range into final position. Draw a line on
the floor along the side of the range that is not against
the cabinet. If back of range will not be flush with
the wall (the location of the outlet may not allow the
range to be positioned against the wall), draw a line on
the floor where the back edge of the range will be. Now
install anti-tip bracket (see "Anti-Tip Bracket
Installation",
page I0).
The inlet pressure to the regulator must be at least 1 " (.25
kPa) greater than the regulator manifold pressure setting.
The regulator is set for 4"(10,16 cm) water column (1.0
kPa) Natural gas manifold pressure; the inlet pressure must
be at least 5"(12.60 cm) water column (1.25 kPa) Natural
gas. For LP/Propane gas, the regulator must be set for
10"(25,4 cm) water column (2.5 kPa) manifold pressure;
the inlet pressure must be at least 11 "(27,9 cm) water
column (2.75 kPa).
The supply line should be equipped with an approved
shutoff valve (see Figure 1 I). This valve should be located
in the same room as the range and should be in a location
that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block
access to the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or
shutting off gas to the appliance. Open the shutoff valve in
the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gas to move
through the gas line.
The gas supply between the shutoff valve and the regulator
may be connected by rigid piping or by A.G.A./C.G.A.-
approved flexible metallic union-connected piping where
local codes permit use.
The gas supply piping can be through the side wall of the
left cabinet. The left side cabinet is an ideal location for the
main shutoff valve, if the range is installed within cabinet
storage space

if range will not be installed against
a cabinet,
move range into final position. Draw a line on the floor
along both sides of the range. If back of range will not
be flush with the wall (the location of the outlet may
not allow the range to be positioned against the wall),
draw a line on the floor where the back edge of the
range will be. Now install anti-tip bracket (see "Anti-Tip
Bracket Installation",
page 10).
Do not make the connection too tight.
The regulator is die cast. Overtightening
may crack the
regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or
explosion.
