ALIGNING THE WALL PLATE

D.
Hole A
CAUTION: Wear gloves
to avoid cutting fingers on
sharp edges.
1 Draw a vertical line on the wall at the center of the
30" wide space.
Use the mounting plate as the template for the rear
2
wall. Place the mounting plate on the wall, making
sure that the tabs are touching the bottom of the
cabinet or the level line drawn in Step C for cabinets
with front overhang. Line up the notch and centerline
on the bottom of the mounting plate to the centerline
on the wall.
3 While holding the mounting plate with one hand,
draw circles on the wall at holes A, B, C and D
(see illustration above/actual plate marked with
arrows). Four holes must be used for mounting.

NOTE: Holes C and D are inside area E. If neither
C nor D is in a stud, find a stud somewhere in area E
and draw a fifth circle to line up with the stud. It is
important to use at least one wood screw mounted
firmly in a stud to support the weight of the microwave.
Set the mounting plate aside.
Drill holes on the circles. If there is a stud, drill a
4
hole for wood screws. For holes that don't line up with
a stud, drill a 5 / " hole for toggle bolts.
