WARNING:
A risk of range tip over exists if the appliance
is not installed in accordance with the installation
instructions provided. The proper use of this device
minimizes the risk of TIP-OVER. In using this device, the
consumer must still observe the safety precautions as
stated in the USE and CARE MANUAL and avoid using the
oven door and/or lower drawer as a step stool.
Installation instructions are provided for wood and cement in
either floor or wall. Any other type of construction may
require special installation techniques as deemed
necessary to provide adequate fastening of the ANTI-TIP
bracket to the floor or wall. The bracket may be installed to
engage the left or the right rear leveling foot.
STEP 1 - Locating the Bracket
(See Figure 3)
A. Determine where either the right or left rear “EDGE” of
the range will be located and mark the floor or wall.
B. Place the BRACKET 15/16" (24 mm) from the marked
“EDGE” toward center of opening and against the back
wall as shown in figure 3, with orientation hole against
wall.
C. Use the bracket as a template and mark the required
holes, as shown in figure 3 for the type of construction
you will be using.
D. Freestanding range may be secured to either floor or
wall.
STEP 2 - Anti-Tip Bracket Installation
A. Wood Construction:
1. Floor: Locate the center of the two holes identified in
figure 3 as
“HOLES FOR FLOOR”
. Drill a 1/8” (3
mm) pilot hole in the center of each hole (a nail or awl
may be used if a drill is not available). Secure the
ANTI-TIP bracket to the floor with the two screws
provided. Proceed to STEP 3.
2. Wall: Locate the center of the two holes identified in
figure 3 as
“HOLES FOR WALL”
. Drill an angled
1/8” (3 mm) pilot hole in the center of each hole as
shown in figure 4. (A nail or awl may be used if a drill is
not available). Secure the ANTI-TIP bracket to the wall
with the two screws provided as shown in figure 4.
Proceed to STEP 3.
B. Cement or Concrete Construction:
Suitable screws for concrete construction can be
obtained at a hardware store. Drill the required size
hole for the screws obtained into the concrete at the
center of the holes identified in figure 3 as
“HOLES
FOR FLOOR”
. Secure the ANTI-TIP bracket to the
floor. Proceed to STEP 3.
STEP 3 - Range Installation
A. A freestanding range may be installed by one person.
B. Align the range to its designated location and slide it
back into position. Note: A minimum clearance of 1/4”
(6 mm) is required between the range and the leveling
foot that will engage the ANTI-TIP bracket, see figure 4.
CAUTION:
Damage to the range may occur if range is
moved or lifted by grasping the maintop or backguard.
C. All freestanding ranges with a glass top have a non-lift-
up top. Coil tops are lift-up.
D. For SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS as well as optimum
performance, adjust the range so that it is level. This
may be checked by placing a spirit level or a large pan
of water on the cooktop or the oven rack. If an
adjustment is required, pull the range forward, tip the
range and rotate the leveling feet as required.
E. To check the range for proper installation of the anti-tip
bracket: Use a flashlight and look underneath the
bottom of the range to see that one of the rear leveling
feet is engaged in the bracket slot.
F. Proceed with the remainder of the installation
instructions provided with the range.
