Installing
Your range, like 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
thefloor
covering
ends
at the
front
of the range, the area 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. See the complete
installation instruction booklet included with the range for full details.
Leveling
Use a
1X+”
open end or adjustable wrench to equally back out the 4 legs.
The flanges (rims) below the sides of the cooktop 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 1 of the oven shelves to check
for levelness. If using a spirit
level,
take 2 readings, with the level placed
diagonally first in 1 direction and then the other.
Adjust the 4 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.
