3. Line up the plumb line on the wall with the center line on the
mounting plate.
NOTE: Be sure the minimum width is 30 inches and the distance
from the top of the wall template to the range or counter
top is at least 32 inches. See Figure 23.
4. Center mounting plate in operating by lining up the plumb line
on wall with centerline on mounting plate.
NOTE: If the cabinets are not plumb, adjust the mounting plate to
the cabinets. If the front edge of the cabinet is lower than
the back edge, adjust the mounting plate to be level with
the cabinet front.
5. Measure the bottom of the upper cabinet frame. Trim the edges
A, B and C on the upper cabinet template so that the template
will fit on the bottom of the upper cabinet. If upper cabinet has
a recessed frame, trim the template so it fits inside the
recessed area. Align the centerline of the upper cabinet
template with the centerline of the mounting plate, then
securely tape or tack the upper cabinet template in place. See
Figure 24.
