Stability bracket
If the cooker is fitted with a flexible
connection, a stability bracket should
be fitted to engage in the back of the
cooker. A stability bracket can be
bought from your local supplier.
A stability bracket can be fitted as
follows:
1. Place the cooker in position and
draw a pencil line level with the
front edge.
2. Mark the centre of the cooker to give
the centre line for the bracket.
3. Remove the cooker and mark off
450mm from the pencil line to
locate the front edge of the lower
bracket.
4. Fix the bracket to the floor.
Measure from floor level to
engagement edge in the back of
the cooker and add 3mm.
5. Assemble the underside of the top
part of the bracket to this height.
Levelling
Place a spirit level on a baking sheet
onto an oven shelf.
The cooker is fitted with levelling feet
and locknuts at the front, and wheels
at the rear.
Adjustment of wheel height can be
made with a screwdriver through the
hexagonal hole in the front plinth.
