Important Installation Information:
•
Attach anti-tip bracket to a solid wood cabinet having a
minimum wall thickness of 3/4" (19 mm). The thickness
of the wall or floor may require use of longer screws,
available at your local hardware store.
•
Use appropriate anchors when fastening the mounting
bracket to any material other than hard-wood or metal.
•
At least (2) of the bracket mounting screws must firmly
fasten the anti-tip bracket to the floor, and (2) of the
mounting screws (or drywall anchors) must firmly
fasten the anti-tip bracket to the rear wall (see
Figure 11 and Figure 12).
Prepare holes at fastener locations as identified below:
•
For walls, wall studs, or floors composed of solid wood
or metal, drill 1/8" (3 mm) pilot holes.
•
For walls or floors composed of drywall, sheet-rock or
other soft materials, drill 3/16" (5 mm) holes to a
minimum depth of 1¾" (45 mm), then tap plastic
anchors into each of the holes using a hammer.
•
For walls or floors composed of concrete or concrete
block, drill 3/16" (5 mm) holes to a minimum depth of
1¾" (45 mm), then tap concrete anchors into each of
the holes using a hammer.
•
For walls or floors having ceramic tile covering, drill
3/16" (5 mm) holes through the tile only, then drill into
the material behind the tile as indicated immediately
above.
WARNING!
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD:
•
Use extreme caution when drilling holes into the wall
or floor as there may be concealed electrical wires.
•
Identify the electrical circuits that could be affected
by the installation of the Anti-Tip Device, then turn off
power to these circuits.
•
Failure to follow these instructions may result in
electrical shock or other personal injury.
Mounting the Anti-Tip Bracket
1. Place bracket on floor near the center of where the unit
is to be finally located (Figure 11).
Figure 11: Anti-tip Bracket Mounting Location
2. Secure bracket into the wall stud using (2) mounting
screws or drywall anchors, as appropriate (Figure 12).
3. Secure the bracket to the floor using the screws
provided (Figure 12).
4. Later, when the unit is installed, the adjustable legs will
allow the cast base to slide under the bracket hook,
stabilizing the unit.
5. If the range is moved to a new location, the Anti-Tip
Bracket must be reinstalled.
