Location Guidelines; Moving The Range - AGA Legacy 44 User's Manual & Installation Instructions

Read all instructions before installing or using this appliance.
Any range hood should be installed in
accordance with the hood manufacturer's
instructions.
For safety reasons curtains must not be fitted
immediately behind the range.
We recommend a gap of 43
to allow for moving the range. If a flush fit is
required, fit the range up to the unit at one side
then fit the unit the other side.
A clearance of 5" (13cm) is required if the range
is near a corner of the kitchen to allow the oven
doors to open.

Location guidelines

Do not locate the range where it may be subject
to strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall
behind the range should be sealed. Make sure
the openings around the base of the range that
supply fresh air for combustion and ventilation
are not obstructed by carpeting or woodwork.
Your range is heavy and can settle into soft floor
coverings such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting.
Use care when moving the range on this type of
flooring. It is recommended that the following
simple and inexpensive instructions be followed
to protect your floor.
The range should be installed on a sheet of
plywood (or similar material). When the floor
covering ends at the front of the range, the area
that the range will rest on should be built up with
plywood to the same level or higher than the
floor covering.
This will allow the range to be moved for
cleaning or servicing. Also, make sure your floor
covering will withstand 180°F. (See the
Installation Safety Instructions section.)

Make sure the wall coverings around your range
can withstand the heat generated (up to 200°F)
by the range. (See the Installation Safety
Instructions section.)

Moving the Range

The range is very heavy. Take great care.
We recommend two people maneuver the
range. Ensure that the floor covering is firmly
attached, or removed to prevent it being
disturbed when moving the range around. You
will need the leveling tool.
Pull the drawer out to its furthest point.
Lift up the ends of the plastic clips (one each
side) to release the catches holding the drawer
to the side runners and at the same time pull the
drawer forward and away from the side runners.
For safety's sake push the drawer runners back
out of the way. Put the drawer somewhere safe
- do not refit it until you have completed the
installation, you will need access to the area
behind the drawer.
