INSTALLATION & OPERATION INSTRUCTION
GENERAL
(1) A manual gas shut-off valve must be installed in the gas supply (service) line ahead of the
appliance and gas pressure regulator in the gas stream for safety and ease of future service.
(2) The gas pressure regulator supplied must be installed on the appliance prior to connecting the
equipment to the gas line failure to install a regulator will void the equipment warranty and result in
a potentially hazardous condition.
(3) The appliance and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressure in excess of 1/2PSI.
(4) The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shut off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping sistem at test pressure
equal to or less than 1/2PSI.
(5) Please contact the factory, the factory representative , or a local service company to perform
maintenance and repairs.
RATING PLATE
The rating plate is located in front of the range below the oven section(6" from the floor). Information on this plate includes the model and serial numbers. When communicating with factory about a
unit or requesting special parts or information, this data is essential for proper identification. Other
information on this plate is the BTU/hr input of the burners, operating gas pressure in inches WC,
and whether the unit is orificed for natural or propane gas. Pilot lighting instructions(ovens only) are
also located in the same area. The Salamander broiler, or Cheesemelter(if provided) is supplied
with its own rating plate located on the unit.
RADIANCE COOKING APPLIANCES MUST BE CONNECTED
ONLY TO THE TYPE OF GAS IDENTIFIED ON THE RATING PLATE!

INSTALLATION & OPERATION INSTRUCTION
CLEARANCE
The appliance area must be kept free and clear of all combustible. This unit is design-certified for
the following installation only:
The clearances from combustible and noncombustible construction for ranges and range mounted
salamander broiler or cheesemelter are as follows:
Combustible Construction
BACK
SIDES
FLOOR
If legs or casters are not used, the unit must extend 2" beyond the front edge of a non-combustible
curb or platform.
Non-Combustible
8”
12”
Non-Combustible Construction
0
0
6”
CAUTION
DO NOT PUSH against the end of the valve cover/landing ledge in an attempt to adjust the ranges
position. Although this part is deburred during manufacturing; an accident could occur if the range
should move suddenly while being pushed onto position by hand.
HIGH SHELF ASSEMBLY
(1) Mount the high shelf riser to the range with #10 sheet metal screws(pointed tips) in the back.
(2) Mount the high shelf to the riser with #10 sheet metal screws provided (See attachment at the
end of this manual for a diagram that describes the installation of the backguard/flue riser).
NOTE: If a Salamander broiler / Cheesemelter is to be mounted on range, read installation instructions for Salamander broiler / Cheesemelter before installing high shelf. Special care must be taken
to ensure that the gas supply piping and/or gas pressure regulator is not exposed to exhaust gases
or elevated temperatures.

INSTALLATION & OPERATION INSTRUCTION
LEVELING (Ranges Equipped with Ovens)
A carpenter's spirit level should be placed on the oven's center baking rack and/or across the range
top and the unit leveled both front to back and side to side. If it is not leveled, cakes, casseroles,
and any other liquid or semi liquid batter will not bake evenly, burner combustion may be erratic,
and the unit will not function efficiently.
If the floor is relatively smooth and level, the unit may be leveled further with adjustment in the foot
of the leg. Adjust to the high corner and level the unit with metal shims if the adjustment required
exceeds the 1-1/4" adjustment available. Units with casters must be leveled with shims. A unit will
probably not return to the same position after being moved, requiring releveling after each move.
AIR SUPPLY & VENTILATION
The area in front of around and above the appliance must be kept clear to avoid any obstruction of
the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Adequate clearance must be maintained at all times in
front and the sides of the appliances for servicing and proper operation.
Means must be provided for any commercial, heavy duty cooking appliance to exhaust combustion
waste products to the outside of the building. Usual practice is to place the unit under an exhaust .
hood. Filters and drip thoughs should be part of any industrial hood, but consult local codes before
constructing and installing through a hood.
Strong exhaust fans in this hood or in the overall air conditioning system can produce a slight
vacuum in the room and/or cause air drafts, either of which can interfere with pilot or burner
performance and can also be hard to diagnose. Air movement should be checked during installation; if pilot or burner outage problems persist, make up air openings or baffles may have to be
provided in the room.
NOTE: This appliance is not capable of being operated in the event of power failure.
NO attempt should be made to operate this appliance during a power failure.
