There are six legs, right?  And the outer pair are longer and have
little notches that engage in holes in the stovetop?  If so, cut off
those two and use strong springs instead to pull the grate down onto
the other four legs; and keep a set of four small hardwood wedges to
place as needed under those legs to level the grate.  Or metal
wedges, but hard maple is easier to cut.  If you want really smooth
action, use them in pairs with the inclined faces facing each other
so that you slide the bottom one in and the upper one automagically
rises.  You'd need 3-4 pairs in that case.

Yrs,
