2. To install the bracket, place it against the wall in the mounting
location. Using a drill with a 1/8” diameter drill bit, drill four
(4) 1 5/8” deep pilot holes perpendicular to the screw seating
surfaces shown below. Attach the bracket to the wall as
shown with the four (4) included #12 x 1 3/4 screws.
Installing the Anti-Tip Bracket on 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” (68.6 cm) from the
wall and the bracket screws must be able to thread into the
base plate inside the wall behind. The notches on the sides
of the bracket indicated the minimum required height of the
base plate inside the wall and that any floor covering is not
too thick for proper screw thread engagement.
To determine if the base plate is high enough:
◊
Determine the location of the range center line and front
panel when the range is in its final position based on the
product dimensions on page 5 and the actual cabinet/
cutout dimensions used for the installation.
◊
Determine and mark the required position of the anti-tip
bracket, based on the diagram above. Push the bracket
up against the wall in the mounting location.
◊
Using a pencil, make a dot next to the notches on both
sides of the bracket. Determine if the base plate is as
high at the notches by drilling test holes into the wall at
both dots with a 1/16” drill bit. Drill just deep enough to
see if the bit contacts the base plate. If the bit contacts
the base plate the location will support wall installation of
the anti-tip bracket. If you do not contact the base plate,
the wall mounting method may not be used and the floor
mounting method must be suitable, or the wall must be
modified so that the base plate is above the notches.
