Anti-Tip Bracket Installation - Kenmore 36 " DUAL FUEL RANGE Installation Instructions Manual

Important Safety Warning
To reduce the risk of tipping of the range, the range
must be secured to the floor by the properly installed
anti-tip bracket and screws packed with the range.
These parts are located in a plastic bag in the oven.
Failure to install the anti-tip bracket 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
bracket.
If range is ever moved to a different location, the anti-
tip bracket must also be moved and installed with the
range.
Tools Required:
5/16" (8 ram) Nut driver or Flat Head Screwdriver
Adjustable Wrench
Electric Drill
3/16" (4.8 ram) Diameter Drill Bit
3/16" (4.8 ram) Diameter Masonry Drill Bit (if installing
in concrete)
Anti-Tip Bracket Installation
1. An anti-tip bracket must be installed on the right and
left side at back of the range.
2. The anti-tip bracket supports are attached to the floor
at the back. 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.
3. 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 14 to locate
bracket if template is not available.
4. Mark on the floor the location of the mounting holes
shown on the template (right and left position). For
easier installation, 3/16" (4.8 ram) diameter pilot
holes 1/2" (1.3 cm) deep can be drilled into the floor.
5. Remove template and place bracket on floor (see
figure 14). Line up holes in bracket with marks on
floor and attach the bracket using the screws
provided. Brackets must be secured to solid floor. If
attaching to concrete floor, first drill 3/16" (4.8 ram)
dia. pilot holes using a masonry drill bit.
6. Level range if necessary, by adjusting the 4 leveling
legs with an adjustable wrench. Loosen the screw
which fixes the decorative leg and lift it to reach the
leveling leg. Turn the leveling leg counterclockwise to
raise the range or clockwise to lower the range (see
Figure 15). Replace the decorative legs at your
convenience.
7. Before sliding the range to its final position; take note
of the serial and model numbers for future reference.
Slide range into place making sure each rear leg is
trapped by a the bracket. Range may need to be
shifted slightly to one side as it is being pushed back
to allow rear legs to align with brackets.
8. After installation, visually verify
that the anti-tip brackets are
engaged.
