INSTALLATION

of the range should remain open to allow air circulation
for the gas burner. NEVER BLOCK THE BOTTOM

UNCRATING
This stock pot range was inspected before leaving
the factory. The transportation company assumes full
responsibility for safe delivery upon acceptance of the
shipment. Immediately after uncrating, check for possible shipping damage. If the range is found to be
damaged after unpacking, save the packaging material
and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.
Before installing, verify that the type of gas supply (natural or propane) agrees with the specifications on the
rating plate located on the back of the range. If the supply
and equipment requirements do not agree, do not
proceed with the installation Contact your dealer or
Vulcan-Hart Company immediately.
Do not permit fans to blow directly at the range, and
whenever possible, avoid open windows next to the
range sides or back. Avoid wall type fans which create
air cross currents within the room.
