INSTALLATION
UNPACKING
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.
Carefully unpack range(s) and place in the approximate installation position, whether as a battery
or single stand-alone range.
Remove parts (packed in a cardboard box) from oven cavity, or cabinet body, or on top of modular
range(s).
If burner has been shipped using any package strapping devices, remove these before installing
the range.
Before installing, check the electrical service (Convection Oven Models only) and 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 burner box lower panel. The rating plate will show the voltage, phase,
cycle, full load ampere, BTU, as well as the type of gas. If the supply and equipment requirements
do not agree, do not proceed with the installation. Contact your dealer or Vulcan-Hart immediately.

LOCATION
The equipment area must be kept free and clear of combustible substances.

The installation location must allow adequate clearances for servicing and proper operation. A
minimum front clearance of 35" (889 mm) is required.
The ranges are suitable for installation on combustible floors when 6" (152 mm) adjustable legs or
casters are used. When legs or casters are removed, use only on noncombustible floors, curb, or
platform, with front appliance projecting 3" (76 mm) beyond curb or platform.
Ranges with convection ovens should be installed on 6" (152 mm) legs or casters, allowing 6" (152 mm)
clearance from the rear of the range.
All modular ranges are to be installed only on non-combustible floors.
The range(s) 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(s) 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.

ASSEMBLY
The range is shipped as a complete unit and does not require field assembly.
Bumper Bars (Convection Oven only)
Bumper bars equipped with this unit must be installed. Failure to install bars may result in motor
damage and will void the equipment warranty.
Legs
The range is supplied on 6"(152mm) adjustable stainless steel legs. (For additional leg information
see Leveling section of this manual).
Casters
Ranges mounted on casters must use a flexible connector
(not supplied by Vulcan) 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

STRAIN
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
PL-51219
range as shown in 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.

RANGE TOP SECTIONS
1. Remove top grate.
2. Remove burner/venturi/pilot assembly and discard all packing materials in the drip pan basin,
3. Make sure the burner/venturi assembly is in the proper position (Fig. 13, 14 & 15 in this manual).
4. Install all knobs.
GRIDDLE
The range is shipped with the griddle in place for cooking. No farther griddle installation is required,
except for models G260 and G260C with a broiler/griddle.
BROILER GRIDDLE BRICKS
1. Remove six 5 1/4" x 2 1/4" (133 x 57 mm) and six 5 1/4" x 5 1/16 (133 x 129 mm) bricks from the
shipping box packaged in the oven cavity.
2. Install the 5 1/4" x 2 1/4" (133 x 57 mm) bricks to the left and right hand sides of the broiler by
inserting the bricks individually through the front opening in the broiler. Angle the brick sideways
for easy fit between the burner edges. Set the bricks flat in place resting on the broiler side and
burner edges. Push each brick as far to the rear of the broiler as possible to ensure easy fit of
last brick.
3. Install the remaining six 5 1/4" x 5 1/16 (133 x 129 mm) bricks to the center section as described
in step 2. Place the bricks on the center burner edges only.
LEVELING
To level the range, place a carpenter's level on the range top and check leveling of the unit side to
side and front to rear. Achieve leveling by turning each foot section of the unit's leg as needed.
Turning the foot in a counter clockwise direction will increase height and clockwise will decrease

carefully pull the splasher back panel out away from the range (Fig. 4).
5. Resume sliding the backsplasher channels evenly down until it stops again. Do not force
backsplasher channels down.
6. At the second stopping point, move to the front of the range and carefully pull the bottom of the
backsplasher front panel forward. Continue to slide the backsplasher down onto the range until
it is resting squarely over the rear top support channel (Fig. 5 & 6).
