INSTALLATION
UNCRATING This range was inspected before leaving the factory. The transportation company assumes full responsibility for safe delivery upon acceptance of the shipment. Immediately after unpacking, check for possible shipping damage. If the range is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery. Uncrate unit carefully and place in a work-accessible area as near to its final installed position as possible. Remove all shipping wire and wood blocking. Before installing, check the type of gas supply (natural or propane) to make sure they agree with the specifications on the rating plate located on the inside of the lower kick panel. If the supply and equipment requirements do not agree, do not proceed with the installation. Contact your dealer or company immediately.
LOCATION
The appliance must be installed under a ventilation hood. The equipment area
must be kept free and clear of combustible substances. The range, when
installed, must have a minimum clearance from combustible construction of 12″
(304 mm) at the sides and 10″ (253 mm) at the rear. Clearance from non-
combustible construction is 0″ at the sides and 6″ (152 mm) at the rear. The
installation location must allow adequate clearances for servicing and proper
operation. A minimum front clearance of 40″ (1016 mm) is required. The range
must be installed so that the flow of combustion and ventilation air will not
be obstructed. Adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion chamber
must be provided. Make sure there is an adequate supply of air in the room to
allow for combustion of the gas at the burners.
INSTALLATION CODES AND STANDARDS

The above are available from the Canadian Standard Association, 5060 Spectrum Way, Suite 100, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada L4W 5N6.
ASSEMBLY: Ranges Mounted on Casters
Ranges mounted on casters must use a flexible connector (not supplied by CHEF
N’SAVE) that complies with the Standard for Connectors for Movable Gas
Appliances, ANSI-Z21.69 · CSA 6.16 and a quick-disconnect device that complies
with the Standard for Quick-Disconnect Devices for Use With Gas Fuel,
ANSI-Z21.41 · CSA 6.9. In addition, adequate means must be provided to limit
movement of the appliance without depending on the connector and the quick-
disconnect device or its associated piping to limit appliance movement. Attach
the restraining device at the rear of the range as shown in Fig. 1. Remove two
screws from the rear of the range and install the tie-down strap shipped with
the casters using these screws (Fig. 1). Attach the gas line strain relief to
the tie-down strap at the rear of the range (Fig. 1).
If disconnection of the restraint is necessary, turn off the gas supply before disconnection. Reconnect this restraint prior to turning the gas supply on and returning the range to its installation position. Separate instructions for installing casters to the range are included with the casters. Note: If the range is installed on casters and is moved for any reason, it is recommended that the range be levelled front to back and side to side.
Backsplash
The standard Restaurant Range is equipped with a 23″ (584 mm) high backsplash
and shelf.
-
Remove the backsplash components from the crating materials.
-
Assemble the required components as shown in Fig’s. 2 and 3 and 4.
-
Tighten the four screws to secure the shelf.
-
Lift the assembly up, sliding the channels into the space provided at the rear of the range.(Fig’s. 5).
-
Install four #10 sheet metal screws (2 to each channel leg) (Fig. 6).
LEVELING
Check the leveling of the range. Place a level inside the oven cavity across the oven rack Level front-to-back and side-to-side.
To adjust the leveling, tilt the range to one side and using channel locks, unscrew the adjustable leg inset as required.
GAS CONNECTIONS
CAUTION: All gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound used must be resistant to the action of propane gases.
Each range is factory-equipped for the type gas specified on the rating plate. The installation gas connection is a 3/4″ (19 mm) 14 FPT ANSI schedule #40 standard pipe. Connect gas supply. Make sure the pipes are clean and free of obstructions. Codes require that a gas shutoff valve be installed in the gas line ahead of the range. Standard ranges are equipped with fixed burner orifices which coincide with installation elevation. Install the gas pressure regulator.
Before installing, ensure that regulator supplied agrees with rating plate gas supply. The gas pressure regulator is NOT factory installed. The regulator for this gas type is sealed within a plastic bag attached to the oven rack inside the oven cavity. This regulator must be field installed by a qualified installer. Natural gas regulators are preset for 5″ W.C. (Water Column) (.99 kPa); propane gas regulators for 10.0″ W.C. (2.5 kPa)
- Locate 3/4″ (19 mm) gas connection pipe extending from rear of range.
- Cover pipe threads with leak sealant.
- Screw regulator hand-tight onto pipe with regulator arrow pointing towards range body back (Fig. 7).
- Using pipe wrench, tighten regulator securely in an upright position (Fig. 7).
The arrow on the regulator shows the direction of the gas flow. The pressure regulator must be mounted horizontally to ensure proper preset outlet pressure. If the regulator is installed in any other position, the outlet pressure must be reset for proper operation. A leak limiter is supplied with every regulator to allow excess gas pressure to escape. Do not obstruct leak limiter on gas pressure regulator, as obstruction may cause regulator to malfunction.
WARNING: PRIOR TO LIGHTING, CHECK ALL JOINTS IN THE GAS SUPPLY LINE FOR LEAKS. USE SOAP AND WATER SOLUTION. DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME. After piping has been checked for leaks, all piping receiving gas should be fully purged to remove air.
Before operation, verify thermocouple is securely seated in the safety valve. The thermocouple should be tightened a 1/4 turn past finger tight. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Over-tightening may damage the thermocouple or safety magnet.
TESTING THE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM
When gas supply pressure exceeds 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa), the range and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system. When gas supply pressure is 1/2 psig(3.45kPa) or less, the range should be isolated from the gas supply system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve until the range is ready for start-up.
FLUE CONNECTIONS DO NOT obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue located
on the rear of the range. It is recommended that the flue gases be ventilated
to the outside of the building through a ventilation system installed by
qualified personnel. From the termination of the flue to the filters of the
hood venting system, a minimum clearance of 18″ (457 mm) must be maintained.
Information on the construction and installation of ventilating hoods may be
obtained from the standard for the “Removal of Vapors from Commercial Cooking
Equipment”, NFPA No. 96 (latest edition), available from The National Fire
Protection Association, Battery march Park, Quincy, MA 02269.
OPERATION
WARNING: THE RANGE AND ITS PARTS ARE HOT. BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN OPERATING, CLEANING OR SERVICING THE RANGE.
CONTROLS
THERMOSTAT DIAL Allows operator to regulate oven temperature from low to 500° F (260° C) (OPTIONAL) GRIDDLE BURNER KNOB Regulates gas flow to the griddle. To increase heat, turn knob counter clockwise, to decrease heat, turn knob clockwise.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Griddle Seasoning (optional models)
CAUTION: This griddle plate is steel, but the surface is relatively soft and
can be scored or dented by the careless use of a spatula or scraper. Be
careful not to dent, scratch, or gouge the plate surface. Do not try to knock
off loose food that may be on the spatula by tapping the corner edge of the
spatula on the griddle surface. A new griddle surface must be seasoned to do a
good cooking job. The metal surface of the griddle is porous. Food tends to
get trapped in these pores and stick; therefore, it is important to “season”
or “fill up” these pores with cooking oil before cooking. Seasoning gives the
surface a slick, hard finish from which the food will release easily. To
season, heat griddle top section at a low burner setting. Pour one ounce of
cooking oil per square foot of surface over the griddle top section. With an
insulated cloth, spread the oil over the entire griddle surface to create a
thin film. Wipe off any excess oil with an insulated cloth. Repeat this
procedure 2 to 3 times until the griddle has a slick surface.
