cabinets (see figure 8). If back of range will not be flush with the wall (the location of the outlet may not allow the range to be positioned against the wall), draw a line on the floor where the back edge of the range will

be. Now install anti-tip brackets (see "Anti-Tip Brackets Installation", page 10).

If range will be installed with a cabinet on one side only, move the range into final position. Draw a line on

the floor along the side of the range that is not against

the cabinet. If back of range will not be flush with the wall (the location of the outlet may not allow the

range to be positioned against the wall), draw a line on

the floor where the back edge of the range will be. Now

install anti-tip brackets (see "Anti-Tip Brackets Installation", page 10).

If range will not be installed against a cabinet,

move range into final position. Draw a line on the floor

along both sides of the range. If back of range will not

be flush with the wall (the location of the outlet may not allow the range to be positioned against the wall),

draw a line on the floor where the back edge of the

range will be. Now install anti-tip brackets (see "Anti-Tip Brackets Installation", page 10).

Gas Supply Installation

-- Manual ShutoffValve

(Connectto112"or3/,/,solidgas

FlareUnion Supply pipe fromthe wallor floor).

The supply line should be equipped with an approved shutoff valve (see Figure 9). This valve should be located

in the same room as the range and should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not

block access to the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning on or shutting off gas to the appliance.Open the shutoff valve in the gas supply line. Wait a few minutes for gas to move through the gas line.

The gas supply between the shutoff valve and the

regulator may be connected by rigid piping or by A.G.A./ C.G.A.-approved flexible metallic union connected

piping where local codes permit use. The gas supply piping can be through the side wall of the right cabinet. The right side cabinet is an ideal

location for the main shutoff valve.

Do not make the connection too tight.

The regulator is die cast. Overtightening may crack the

regulator resulting in a gas leak and possible fire or explosion.

Assemble the flexible conduit from the gas supply pipe to the pressure regulator in this order:

1- manual shutoff valve, 2- flare union adapter, 3- flexible conduit, 4- flare union adapter,

5- pressure regulator.

Flexible Appliance

Conduit

(Install sufficient length

of flexible conduit

to allow the range to be pulled completely

out of the cut-out area

for proper servicing.

Figure 9

When shipped from the factory, this unit isdesigned to operate on 4" water column (1.0 kPa) Natural gas

manifold pressure. A convertible pressure regulator (see

figure 2) is connected to the range manifold and MUST

be connected in series with the gas supply line. To

access the regulator, remove the drawer.

For proper operation, the maximum inlet pressure to the regulator should be no more than 14" of water column pressure (3.5 kPa).

The inlet pressure to the regulator must be at least 1" (.25 kPa) greater than the regulator manifold pressure setting. The regulator is set for 4" water column (1.0

kPa) Natural gas manifold pressure; the inlet pressure

must be at least 5" water column (1.25 kPa) Natural gas. For LP/Propane gas, the regulator must be set for

10" water column (2.5 kPa) manifold pressure; the inlet

pressure must be at least 11 " water column (2.75 kPa).

The gas supply line to the shutoff valve should be

1/2" or 3/4" solid pipe.

The user must know the location of the main shutoff valve and have easy access to it.

When using flexible gas conduit on the range, allow sufficient slack to pull the range outside the cutout for cleaning or servicing.

NOTE: Do not allow the flexible conduit to get pinched between the wall and the range. To visually check, remove the range drawer.

Use pipe-joint compound made for use with Natural and LP/Propane gas to seal all gas connections. If flexible

conduit is used, be certain that it is not kinked.

Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted

according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Check for leaks. After connecting the range to the gas supply, check the system for leaks with a manometer. If a manometer is not available, turn on the gas supply and

use a liquid leak detector at all joints and connections to

check for leaks.

Do not use a flame to check for leaks

from gas connections. Checking for leaks with a flame

may result in a fire or explosion.

All openings in the wall or floor where the range is to be

installed must be sealed.

Tighten all connections if necessary to prevent gas

leakage in the cooktop or supply line.

Check alignment of valves after connecting the cooktop to the gas supply to be sure the manifold pipe

has not been moved.

Disconnect the range and its individual shutoff

valve from the gas supply piping system during any

pressure testing of the system at test pressures greater

than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa or 14" water column).

LP/Propane Gas Conversion

This appliance can be used with Natural Gas or Propane Gas. It is shipped from the factory for usewith natural gas.

If you wish to convert your range for use with LP/Propane gas, usethe supplied fixed orifices; they are contained in a special bag along with instructions marked "FOR LP/

PROPANEGAS CONVERSION", located on the back of

the range, close to the appliance regulator valve.

The conversion must be performed by a qualified installer,

LPsupplier or service technician in accordance with the

installation instructions furnished with this range and all codes and requirements of all local codes and

requirements. Failure to follow instructions could result in serious injury or property damage. The qualified agency

performing this work assumes responsibility for the conversion.

Moving the Appliance for Servicing and Cleaning

Turn off the range line fuse or circuit breakers at the

main power source, and turn off the manual gas shut-off valve. Make sure the range is cold. Remove the service drawer and open the oven door. Lift the range at the front and slide it out of the cut-out opening without creating undue strain on the flexible gas conduit.

Isolate the range 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 pressures equal to or lessthan 1/2 psig (3.5kPa or 14"

water column).

Make sure not to pinch the flexible gas conduit at the back of the range when replacing the unit into the cut- out opening. Replace the drawer, close the door and switch on the electrical power and gas to the range.

If the pressure regulator is connected to rigid piping, the regulator must be disconnected before moving the

appliance. Reassemble in reverse order (see figure 9).

Failure to make the appropriate conversion

can result in personal injury and property damage.

Any additions, changes or conversions

required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs must be made by an authorized Sears Service Center, Distributor or Qualified Agency.

Range Installation

When unpacking the range, do not

discard the 4 shipping bolts. These are to be replaced on the unit for use as leveling legs and height adjustments.

NOTE:

1. The back of the range may be installed directly against the wall.

2. To reduce possible scorching of vertical walls and to minimize potential fire hazards under abnormal

surface unit use conditions such as high heat or no

pans and to conform to A.G.A. requirements, a minimum of 2 1/2" (6.4 cm) spacing should be provided on both sides of the cooktop.

Slide range into cut-out opening and double check for levelness. If the range is not level, pull unit out

and readjust leveling legs, or make sure floor is
