Flooring Under
the Range
Your range, like so many other
household items, is heavy and
can settle into soft floor
coverings such as cushioned
vinyl or carpeting. When moving
the range on this type of flooring,
use care, and it is recommended
that these simple and inexpensive
instructions be followed.
The range should be installed on a
l/4-inch-thick sheet of plywood
(or similar material) as follows:
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.
Leveling the Range
Use a 1%” open-end or adjustable
wrench to equally back out the
four legs. The flanges (rims) below
the sides of the maintop must be
raised above the top of the
countertop. Carefully slide the
range into its installation space.
Observe that it is clearing the
countertop. Then place a spirit
level or a glass measuring cup
partially filled with water on one
of the oven shelves to check for
levelness. If using a spirit level,
take two readings, with the level
placed diagonally first in one
direction and then the other.
Adjust the four legs carefully.
Level the range front to back and
side to side. The range legs must
rest on the floor. The range must
not hang from the countertop.
