Recommendations regarding the construc-
tion and fitting of a base when the installa-
tion requires an integrated appliance to be
raised
Where the appliance has been raised by
mounting onto a wooden base provided by the
installer.
The material used to construct the base should
have a non slip surface, be water repellent and
if possible be one solid piece. If it is not possi-
ble to use one solid piece, due to the additional
height required, ensure that any additional
strips of timber are glued and screwed to the
underside of the base (see Fig.
F
).
Drill four fixing holes see Fig.
G
.
Position the base into the recess with its front-
edge as far forward as the adjoining plinth line
will allow.

The reason for placing the base in this posi-
tion is to allow a small strip of beading to
be fitted in front of the appliance feet.
Fix the base firmly to
the floor using four
appropriate counter-
sunk screws (see Fig.
H
).
With the appliance installed adjust all four feet
ensuring the machine is stable, and a clear-
ance of approximately 5 mm is left between the
top of the machine and the under side of the
worktop.
