Installing the Anti-Tip Bracket to the Wall
1. Determine the suitability of wall mounting the anti-tip bracket.
To use the wall mount option, the range front panel (excluding
the bull nose) must not be more than 27 inches (68.6 cm)
from the wall, and the bracket screws must be able to thread
into the back wall’s interal base plate (see Inside the Back
Wall).
2. The notches on the sides of the bracket indicate the minimum
required height of the base plate and that any floor covering
is not too thick for proper screw thread engagement.
Determine if the Base Plate is High Enough:
The base plate is located on the floor, behind the wall. It will
anchor the anti-tip bracket (see Inside the Back Wall).
Find the range’s center line and front panel according to
the diagram below and the final installation cabinet / cutout
dimensions.
1. Find and mark the position of the anti-tip bracket, based on
the diagram below.
2. Push the bracket up against the wall and into position.
3. Determine if the base plate behind the wall (see Inside the
Back Wall) is tall enough to grab the screws.
•
Using a pencil, mark a dot next to the notches on both sides
of the bracket. Drill just deep enough to see if the bit contacts
the base plate.
•
When the drill bit contacts the base plate, you will know
screws in the anti-tip bracket will also contact the base plate.
This setup is successful.
•
If the drill bit does not contact the base plate, the wall
mounting method should not be used. The floor mounting
method is more suitable, or the wall must be modified so that
the base plate can be accessed or anchors can be used.
