Range Toe Space Filler Instructions for
Countertop Heights up to 38"
—
The range height must be
adjusted to the countertop height.
For countertop heights greater than
37'\ additional steps may need to be
taken as detailed below.
When the range is elevated to its
maximum height, there is a large
space between the bottom of the
range and the floor, referred to as
the toe space. This may be visually
objectionable. The legs should not
be extended any farther than to
provide a maximum of 3" toe
space. See Fig. 1.
The range is designed to provide a
minimum of 1" air gap at the
bottom of the range. (Example:
When legs are screwed all the way
into the base rail.) See Fig. 2.
This gap is very important to the
proper ventilation of the range and
must be maintained when treating
the appearance of the toe space.

longer legs and is in position and
level, measure from the bottom of
the bodyside to the floor. This will
be the required height of the toe
space filler side pieces. See Fig. 1.
This height may vary from 2~b" to
not be visually objectionable and
not need the filler.
Determine measurements for the
filler front piece as shown in Fig. 3.
Make sure to provide the 3/4" gap
at the top and the 5/16" gap at the
bottom. These gaps will provide
the proper 1" minimum ventilation
space as mentioned before.
Use screws or other removable
fasteners if you wish to attach the
filler to the floor or adjacent
cabinets so the filler can readily be
removed when it is necessary to
–
move the range.
