STEP 4: PREPARE THE WALL AND
UPPER CABINET FOR INSTALLATION
MEASURE AND TACK / TAPE UP THE
TEMPLATES
1. Using a plumb line and (metal) measuring tape, find and
mark the vertical center line on the back wall, as in
Figure 22.
2. Find and mark one or two points where the studs are
on the wall (Studs are normally 16 inches apart) and
then measure and mark the stud locations. If you
cannot find any wall stud, consult a local building
contractor.
CAUTION
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO INSTALL THE MICROWAVE
OVEN IF YOU CANNOT FIND A WALL STUD.
3. Line up the plumb line on the wall with the center line
on the mounting plate.
NOTE: Be sure the minimum width is 30 inches and the
distance from the top of the mounting plate to
the range or counter top is at least 30 inches.
See Figure 4 on page 4.
4. Center mounting plate on rear wall installation area by
lining up the plumb line on wall with centerline on
mounting plate. Make sure the minimum width is 30
inches and that the top of the mounting plate is located a
minimum of 30 inches above the cooking surface. See
Figure 23.
NOTE: If the cabinets are not plumb, adjust the
mounting plate to the cabinets. If the front edge
of the cabinet is lower than the back edge,
adjust the mounting plate to be level with the
cabinet front.
5. Measure the bottom of the upper cabinet frame. Trim
the edges "A" "B" and "C" on the upper cabinet
template so that the template will fit on the bottom of
the upper cabinet. If upper cabinet has a recessed
frame, trim template so that it fits inside the recessed
area. Align the centerline of the upper cabinet template
with the centerline of the mounting plate; then securely
tape or tack the upper cabinet template in place.
