 That's close to the one mom had though ours was a 4 burner and the left side was a warming oven only. There should be a toggle switch for the warming drawer, our switch was for the warming oven. What other dials are your thinking... yours looks to have two timers. IIRC the lights in the oven temp slider come on when it's heating and turn off when it reaches temp and it chimed when it reached temperature. I can't see from the picture but what is that circular something between the two drawers.. | ||

Got me! I was (and still am) hoping someone either has one and can enlighten me or knows where I can get my hands on a manual. I'd love a wiring diagram too! The stove clearly had one glued to the back but it has long since been torn off... | ||

Low heat on burners Congratulations on saving this beauty!! Moffat made some pretty cool stoves - I see you have the 'synchrochime' oven controls!
Do none of the burners work at low heat? If so, there's probably a bad connection somewhere - the burners of this era would use 110v for lower heat settings and 220v for higher heat settings, so look for a bad connection possibly at the terminal block. I've done a little work on a vintage one-oven Moffat for a friend of mine, but as we say here, C'est pas evident... I'll keep my eyes out for a manual - there's a town-wide garage sale in Ogden this coming weekend, so ya never know! | ||

WOW! Just WOW! I'll bet the surface units have fixed heat switches. Like all Canadian electric ranges, I guess every heating element has fuse protection. Was it that clean when you got it? The one trim ring I can see up close looks like a late 50s Frigidaire. | ||
