be filed with the carrier.
The Lang model series 36S electric oven range was designed in modular construction to allow
passage through a 26 inch by 66 inch watertight door or through standard building doors.
Move the crate containing the range as close to the place of installation as possible before
removing the protective crating. Uncrate the range and move as close as practical to the final
installation site.
Remove the legs from inside the oven. Attach the legs to the bottom corner of the oven screwing
into the threaded hole provided. Then set the oven in place.
Place spacers, (ie. 2 x 4 wood block not supplied) at the front and rear of the oven top.
Place the range top on the spacers that are located on top of the oven.
The six wire leads to supply electricity to the cook top are bundled under the front bottom of the
top. Route these wires through the bushing provided in the oven top.
Align the four locating pins in the bottom corner of the top with the four holes in each corner of
the oven top.
Remove the spacers and lower the top onto the oven.
WARNING:
Make sure the six wire leads to supply electricity to the cook top are not crimped
between the oven and range top.
WARNING:
Make sure the main power supply to the range is turned OFF at the source prior
to connecting power to the range.
The range can now be connected to power.
CAUTION: Be sure the power supply voltage matches the voltage specified on the nameplate
located on the front of the range.
Use the wiring diagram provided in this manual for determining the connections of the cook top
wires to the oven terminal block.
