1. After centering and aligning unit in cutout lift cooktop by placing a hand in each front burner opening and hold
in place with the support rod. Place a cup washer over each bolt, grooved side away from bolt head, and put
through the outermost
mounting
hole in each corner of the burner box.
2. Remove unit from countertop
cutout. Lock each bolt and washer in place using a flat washer and hex nut on
bottom side of burner box flange as shown in Figure B.
3. Put burner box with attached bolts in cabinet cutout. Center and align unit in opening making sure that required
clearances
are maintained.
4. The following work must be done below the countertop.
Slide locking plate over the lower end of the bolt. Hold
in place with tubular nut, making sure that locking plate is positioned to obtain maximum area possible of counter-
top. See Figure B. Hand tighten tubular nut using standard slotted screwdriver.
IMPORTANT
NOTE: Due to flange design hand tighten only until outerlip is snug to countertop.
Overtightening
may stress flange and cause crazing and chipping
of porcelain.
CONNECTING UNIT TO GAS
All gas supply connections
should be made by a qualified
technician
and in accordance
with local codes or
ordinances.
In the absence of a local code, the installation
must conform to the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI 2
223.1a-1987. The manifold and pressure regulator supplied with the unit have %" NPT connections.
Setting of the
pressure regulator is 6 in. water column (W.C.) for natural gas and 10 in. W.C. for LP gas. In order to check pressure
regulator, the inlet test pressure must beat least one in. (1") W.C. greaterthan
setting (7"for natural and 1l"for
LP).
Maximum
pressure to regulator must not exceed 14" W.C.
Thread sealant resistant to natural and LP gases is to be used on all threaded gas connections.
The end of the manifold extends out of the burner box in the location shown below for your model. Connect the
gas pressure regulator (supplied with the unit) with the arrow on the bottom of the regulator pointing up directly
to the end of the manifold. The regulator should be positioned
so that the access cap is accessible
for removal
after the regulator has been installed. A l/2 " NPT manual shut off valve should be installed in the gas supply line
in an accessible
location,
so that the gas may be turned off when servicing
of the unit is required.

in excess of l/z psig. (3.5 kPa)
The appliance
must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its Individual
manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressure equal to or less than l/z psig. (3.5 kPa)
