Install the Anti-Tip Bracket and Foot
Locate the anti-tip bracket included in the parts box.
There are two ways to mount the anti-tip bracket:
•
Floor mounting (preferred method)
•
Wall mounting (alternate method). Use this method if floor
mounting is not suitable. If the front panel of range (excluding
bull nose) is further than 27” (68.6 cm) from the back wall or if
the flooring is too thick (see
Installing the Anti-Tip Bracket
on the Wall
), the wall mounting method may not be used and
the floor mounting method must be suitable.
Installing the Anti-Tip Bracket on the Floor
WARNING
To perform its intended function, the anti-tip bracket must be
attached as instructed to the concrete slab or wood sub-floor
below any floor coverings (including cement board) on top. Do
not attach the anti-tip bracket directly to floor coverings such as
ceramic/asphalt tile or linoleum.
Four (4) plastic anchors are provided along with three sizes (4
each) of #8 or #12 Phillips head screws for attaching the anti-
tip bracket to the floor. Use both the anchors and four (4) of the
screws when attaching the bracket to a concrete sub-floor. Do not
use the provided anchors when attaching to a wood sub-floor.
