In the literature, some Stone-Weierstrass-type theorems for spaces of continuous functions with values in locally convex spaces are available. In the case where the range space is not locally convex but a general topological vector space, less seems to be known. Motivated by a result of \textit{A. H. Shuchat} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 31, 97--103 (1972; Zbl 0247.41026)] concerning the approximation of continuous vector-valued functions by functions with finite-dimensional range, the authors consider spaces of continuous functions defined on a Hausdorff topological space with the property that all its compact sets have finite Lebesgue covering dimension. In this setting, two general Stone-Weierstrass theorems are proved. The article also contains a series of interesting applications and corollaries to these theorems. This article can be seen as a continuation of the work by the third author [Proc. Edinb. Math. Soc., II. Ser. 22, 35--41 (1979; Zbl 0429.46023); J. Math., Univ. Punjab 12--13 (1979), 11--14 (1980; Zbl 0502.46021); Period. Math. Hung. 30, No. 1, 81--86 (1995; Zbl 0821.46029)].
