Cement or Concrete Construction:
1.
Suitable screws for concrete construction can be
obtained at a hardware store. Drill the required size
hole for the screws obtained into the concrete at the
center of the holes identified in figures 3 through 6,
as applicable,
as "holes for floor." Secure the
ANTI-TIP
bracket to the floor. Proceed to STEP 3.
Installation instructions are provided for wood and cement
installation
in either floor or wall. Any other type of
construction may require special installation techniques as
deemed necessary to provide adequate fastening of the
ANTI-TIP
bracket to the floor or wall. The bracket may be
installed to engage the left or right rear leveling leg.
STEP 1 - Locating The Bracket (see figure 3)
Installations with flush mount wall outlet
A.
Mark the floor or wall where either the right or left rear
"EDGE" of the range is to be located.
B.
Place the BRACKET 15/16" from the marked "EDGE"
toward center of opening and against the back wall as
shown in figure 3.
C.
Use the bracket as a template and mark the required
holes, as shown in figure 3, for the type of construction
you will be using.
Installations with alternate outlet locations
(see figures
4 through 6.)
A.
Mark the floor or wall where either right or left rear
"EDGE" of the range is to be located.
B.
Place the bracket
15/16" from the marked "EDGE"
toward the center of opening and against the spacer as
shown in figures 4 through 6, as applicable. (See figures
4 through 6 for information on appropriate spacer sizes.
See figure 8 for information on securing of spacer.)
C.
Use the bracket as a template and mark the required
holes, as shown in figure 4 through 6, for the type of
construction you will be using.
STEP 2 - Anti-Tip Bracket Installation
A.
Wood Construction:
°
.
Floor: Locate the center of the two holes identified in
figures 3 through 6, as applicable, as "holes for
floor." Drill a 1/8" pilot hole in the center of each hole
(a nail or awl may be used if a drill is not available.)
Secure the ANTI-TIP
bracket to the floor with the
two screws provided. Proceed to STEP 3.
Wall: Locate the center of the two holes identified in
figures 3 through 6, as applicable, as "holes for
wall." Drill an angled 1/8" pilot hole in the center of
each hole as shown in figure 7 or 8 (a nail or awl may
be used if a drill is not available.)
Secure the
ANTI-TIP
bracket to the wall with the two screws
provided as shown in figure 7 or 8. Proceed to STEP
3.
STEP 3 - Range Installation
A.
Complete the installation of the range per the installation
instructions provided with the product.
B°
Align the range to its designated location and slide it
back into position. Make sure that the leveling foot is fully
inserted into and secured by the ANTI-TIP
bracket.
Note: A minimum clearance of 1/4" is required between
the range and the leveling foot that will engage the
ANTI-TIP bracket, see figure 7 or 8.
CAUTION: Damage to the range may occur if range is
moved or lifted by grasping the main top or backguard.
C, All free-standing
ranges with a glass top have a non-
lift-up top. Coil tops are lift-up.
D,
For SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
as well as optimum
performance adjust the range so that it is level. This may
be checked by placing a spirit level or a large pan of
water on the cooktop or the oven rack. If an adjustment
is required pull the range forward, tip the range and
rotate the leveling feet as required.
E,
To check the range for proper installation of the anti-tip
bracket:
Use a flashlight
and look underneath
the
bottom of the range to see that one of the rear leveling
legs is engaged in the bracket slot.
F.
Proceed
with
the
remainder
of
the
installation
instructions provided with the range.
