Follow instructions on the
wall template.
NOTE: There must be at least one
wall stud within the cabinet
opening area.
4.
Follow instructions on the
upper cabinet template.
NOTE: If installing under a metal
cabinet, make sure that grommet is
installed in power supply cord hole.

spacer plates as shown in the upper
right and left corners. The plates
must be snug against the cabinet or
frame bottom. Or, if the front edge
of cabinet is lower than the back
edge, adjust the spacer plates so
that the top edge is level with front
of cabinet frame. (Refer to wall
template.) Tape spacer plates to
wall.
6.
Separate 4 toggle bolts
packed in the installation
hardware from the toggle nuts.

Position the mounting plate
with the toggle bolts attached at
the wall location and insert toggle
nuts and bolts through the holes
in the wall with the toggle nuts
closed. Use wood screws to attach
the mounting plate to studs. Do
not tighten either toggle bolts or
wood screws.
NOTE: Before insertion, be sure
you leave a space more than the
thickness of the wall between the
mounting plate and the end of
each of the toggle nuts (in the
closed position). If you do not
leave enough space, the toggle
nut will not be able to open on the
other side of the wall. Also, once a
toggle nut opens, it cannot be
withdrawn from the hole;
therefore make sure all of the
toggles are in the correct position
before insertion.

Pull toggle bolts toward
you and finger tighten. Center
mounting plate in opening and
push mounting plate against
spacer plates. Make sure spacer
plates do not move. Tighten all
toggle bolts and screws securely.
