Anti-Tip Bracket
IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING
To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range must be secured to the
floor by properly installed anti-tip bracket and screws packed with the
range. Failure to install the anti-tip bracket could allow the range to
accidentally tip over if excessive weight is placed on an open door or if a
child climbs upon it. Serious injury might result from spilled hot liquids or
from the range itself. Refer to the instructions below for proper installation.
ANTI-TIP BRACKET INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
Tools Required:
5/16" Nutdriver or Flat Head Screwdriver
Adjustable Wrench
Electric Drill and 3/ 16" Dia. Drill Bit
3/ 16"
Dia. Masonry Drill Bit (if installing
in concrete)
The bracket attaches to the floor at the back of the
cooking center to hold both the rear leg levelers.
When fastening to the floor, be sure that screws do not
penetrate electrical wiring or plumbing. The screws
provided will work in either wood or concrete.
1. Unfold paper template and place it flat on the floor
with the back and side edges positioned exactly
where the back and sides of the cooking center will
be located when installed. (Use the diagram below to
locate the bracket if the template is not available.)
2. Mark on the floor the location of the two mounting
holes shown on the template. For easier installation,
3/16" diameter pilot holes 1/2" deep can be drilled
into the floor.
3. Remove the template and place the bracket on the
floor with turned up flange to the front. Lineup
holes in the bracket with marks on the floor and
attach with two screws provided. The bracket must
be secured to a solid floor. If attaching to a concrete
floor, first drill 3/1 6" pilot holes using a masonry
drill bit.
4. Level the cooking center if necessary, by adjusting
the four leg levelers with a wrench. (A minimum
clearance of 1/8" is required between the bottom of
the range and the rear leveling feet.)
5. Slide the cooking
center into place
making sure the rear
legs are trapped by
the ends of the
bracket. The
cooking center may
need to be shifted
slightly to one side
'as it is being pushed
back to allow rear
legs to align with
the bracket. Remove lower panel or storage drawer
(some models) to inspect bracket or grasp the top
rear edge of the range and carefully attempt to tilt it
forward to make sure range is properly anchored.
Back edge of cooking
NOTE: If the range is ever moved to a different
location, the anti-tip bracket must also be moved
and installed with the cooking center. To check for
proper installation, see step 5.
