ANTI-TIP BRACKET INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (cont’d)
STEP 1 LOCATE THE BRACKET
IMPORTANT:
Determine the fi nal location of the range before attempting to install the
bracket.
Place the bracket on the fl oor with the back edge against
the rear wall. If the range does not reach the rear wall,
align the back edge of the bracket with the rear panel of
the range in its fi nal location.
Rear Wall
Adjacent cabinet or
final location of right
range side panel
Loc. A
Loc. B
Two screws must enter floor
or wall at Loc. A or B.
IMPORTANT:
If the bracket does not touch the rear wall, you MUST
screw the bracket to the FLOOR as described in Step 2.
Position the side of the bracket against the right cabinet. If
there is no adjacent cabinet, align the edge of the bracket
with the right side panel of the range in its fi nal location. If
the countertop overhangs the cabinet, offset the bracket
from the cabinet by the amount of the overhang.

B
Mark the location for the pair of holes to be used (see illustration above).
NOTE:
For FLOOR installation use Loc. A. For REAR WALL installation use Loc. B.

STEP 2 SECURE THE BRACKET
Screw must
enter wood
or concrete
Attachment to Floor or Rear Wall
Wall sill plate
Screw must enter wood
Bracket
Anti-tip
arm
The bracket must be screwed to either the FLOOR or the REAR
WALL.
FLOOR Installation
WOOD FLOOR:
Use the screws provided to secure the bracket
using the pair of marked holes (Loc. A).
CONCRETE FLOOR:
Using a concrete bit, drill a 5/32” pilot hole
2” deep into the concrete at the center of each of the marked holes
(Loc. A). Use the screws provided to secure the bracket into the
fl oor.
STEP 3 CHECK THE BRACKET
After installing the bracket, slide the range into its fi nal location. To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly,
look underneath the range to see that the anti-tip arm attached to side panel is engaged in the bracket. On some models,
the storage drawer or kick panel can be removed for easier inspection. If visual inspection is not possible, slide the range
forward, confi rm the anti-tip bracket is securely attached to the fl oor or wall, and slide the range back so the anti-tip arm
slides just under the anti-tip bracket. If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this procedure to
verify the range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket.
REAR WALL Installation
Use the 2 screws provided to secure the bracket using the pair of marked holes at Loc. B. The screws MUST enter into a
wood sill plate. If the wall contains any metal studs or similar materials, then the fl oor must be used.
IMPORTANT:
The anti-tip bracket must be PROPERLY INSTALLED to prevent the range from tipping. NEVER remove the
leveling legs. This will prevent the range from being secured to the ANTI-TIP bracket properly.
