I am remodeling my kitchen & need to remove the drop in range & put in
a new tile back splash before I install the replacement range. Can
this be done by a novice or do I need an expert?


Electric or gas? Either way, really not hard to do. it should lift out once
disconnected.

Well, there are commonly a couple of fasteners on the
underside of cooktop.

Be sure there is enough clearance for the tile or it will not
go back in.

The OP mentioned a new replacement range. I hope he's checked
that the countertop cut-out is compatible. These are not well
standardized between manufacturers or even models.
