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
brackets and screws packed with the range. Those parts
are located in a plastic bag in the oven. Failure to install
the anti-tip brackets will allow the range to 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.
Follow the instructions below to install the anti-tip
brackets.
If range is ever moved to a different location, the anti-tip
brackets must also be moved and installed with the
range. To check for proper installation, see step 5.
Tools Required:
5/16" (8 mm) Nutdriver or Flat Head Screwdriver
Adjustable Wrench
Electric Drill
3/16" (4.8 mm) Diameter Drill Bit
3/16" (4.8 mm) Diameter Masonry Drill Bit (if installing
in concrete)
Anti-Tip
Brackets
Installation
Instructions
Brackets attach to the floor at the back of the range to
hold both 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 range will be located
when installed. (Use the diagram in figure 10 to
locate brackets if template is not available.)
2.
Mark on the floor the location of the 4 mounting
holes (2 holes per bracket) shown on the template.
For easier installation, 3/16" (4.8 mm) diameter pilot
holes Y2" (1.3 cm) deep can be drilled into the floor.
3.
Remove template and place brackets on floor with
turned up flanges to the outside (see figure 10). Line
up holes in brackets with marks on floor and attach
with 4 screws provided (2 screws per bracket).
Brackets must be secured to solid floor. If attaching
to concrete floor, first drill 3/16" (4.8 mm) dia. pilot
holes using a masonry drill bit.
4.
Level range if necessary, by adjusting 4 leg levelers
with wrench. (See Figure 11). A minimum clearance
of 1/8" (3.2 mm) is required between the bottom of
the range and the rear leg levelers to allow room for
the anti-tip brackets.
5.
Slide range into place making sure rear legs are
trapped by ends of brackets. Range may need to be
shifted slightly to one side as it is being pushed back
to allow rear legs to align with brackets.
6.
After installation, verify that the anti-tip bracket is
engaged.
Open and remove drawer and check to
make sure the anti-tip bracket is engaged.
