4.
Attach terminal lugs to line 1 (black), neutral (white), and line 2
(red) wires. Loosen (do not remove) the setscrew on the front
of the terminal lug and insert exposed wire end through
bottom of terminal lugs. Securely tighten setscrew to

Attaching terminal lugs to the terminal block - 20 lbs-in. (2.3 N-m)
5.
Use Phillips screwdriver to connect the bare (green) ground
wire to the range with the ground-link screw. The ground wire
must be attached first and must not contact any other
terminal.
6.
Use
³⁄₈
" nut driver to connect the neutral (white) wire to the
center terminal block post with one of the 10-32 hex nuts.
7.
Connect line 1 (black) and line 2 (red) wires to the outer
terminal block posts with 10-32 hex nuts.
8.
Securely tighten hex nuts.
9.
Replace terminal block access cover.
3-wire connection: Direct Wire
Use this method only if local codes permit connecting ground
conductor to neutral supply wire.
1.
Pull the conduit through the hole and conduit plate on bottom
of range. Allow enough slack to easily attach the wiring to the
terminal block.
2.
Attach terminal lugs to line 1 (black), bare (green) ground, and
line 2 (red) wires. Loosen (do not remove) the setscrew on the
front of the terminal lug and insert exposed wire end through
bottom of terminal lugs. Securely tighten setscrew to
XX lbs-in. torque. See Bare Wire Torque Specifications chart.
