ALIGNING THE WALL PLATE
1.
Draw a vertical line on the wall at the center of the
30" wide space.
2.
Use the mounting plate
as the template
for the
rear wall. Place the mounting plate on the wall,
making sure that the tabs are
touching the
bottom of the cabinet or the level line drawn in
Step C for cabinets with front overhang. Line
up the notch and center line on the bottom of
the mounting plate to the center line on the
wall.
3.
While holding the mounting plate with one hand,
draw circles on the wall at holes A, B, and C
(see illustration above/actual plate marked with
arrows).
holes must be used for
mounting.
NOTE:
Holes A,B and C are inside area E. If none of
A,B and C is in a stud, find a stud somewhere in area
E and draw a fifth circle to line up with the stud. It is
important to use
at least one wood screw
mounted
firmly in a stud
to support the weight of the
microwave.
Set the mounting plate aside
.
4.
Drill holes on the circles.
If there is a stud, drill a
3

16
" hole for wood screws.
Three holes that don’t line up with a stud, drill
