●
●
Ensure the refrigerator door is closed when rolling into cabinetry.
●
●

●
The anti-tip bracket and fittings supplied must be fitted to the wall of finished enclosure
to withstand 220 lbs (100kg) load.
●
●
Ensure that anti-tip bracket is installed correctly to prevent the refrigerator tipping
forward when door is open.

Read the following reminders before fastening with masonry plugs and/or screws:
●
●
Ensure the screws avoid electrical, gas and water conduits.
●
●
Ensure the surface of the bracket is fastened to withstands a 220.5 pound (100kg) load.

●
●
Do not use metallic materials that may corrode, stain and/or damage the enclosure.

Project the end of the above finished enclosure to the
center of the back wall and measure 1 1/4” (31mm)
vertically from the projection line (
A
).
– This will locate the contact surface between
the bracket and the top surface at the back end
of the refrigerator.
IMPORTANT!
When positioning the refrigerator in the cabinetry,
ensure that the bracket overlaps the refrigerator
by a minimum 2 3/8" (60mm) for a secure hold.
If the minimum 2 3/8" (60mm) overlap cannot be
achieved, install a solid spacer to the wall stud behind
the bracket.

Mark the screw locations of the anti-tip bracket on the
wall based on the most central wall stud (
B
).
– If there are no wall studs, the bracket can be
installed to solid brick walls with masonry plugs.
(However, not recommended to be used on
perforated brick or hollow concrete bricks.)
