Preparing the Space

If the unit is to be installed
CAUTION
under a countertop, it is
recommended that the countertop be supported
by a structure other than the unit itself to prevent
damage to the unit.
Make sure the floor under the
CAUTION
unit is level with the surrounding
finished floor. Protect a finished floor with plywood,
cardboard, or some other suitable material before
moving the unit into place. Failure to do this may
result in damage to the floor.
1). Make sure the space opening is correctly sized for
the unit. See chart below for finished rough opening
requirements.

NOTE: For a cabinet door to open properly, the door
must open a minimum of 90°. Use a minimum 3" fill-
er in corner installations to assure a full 90° opening.
Allow 25" clearance in front of unit for full door swing
and shelf/drawer pull out for all units
2). Check that the following are level and square:
► Front and interior opening
► Installation opening and floor surface
► Countertop bottom and front edge (if applicable)
NOTE: The floor under the unit
CAUTION
must be at the same level as
the surrounding finished floor. To prevent possible
damage to the countertop do not place heavy objects
on countertop directly over unit.

Installation
Unit may tip forward if loaded racks/shelves are all
pulled out at the same time. To prevent tipping, and to
provide stable installation, the unit must be secured in
place with the anti-tip brackets supplied with the unit.
The anti-tip brackets, when properly installed, should
secure the rear legs/glides to the mounting surface
and prevent the unit from tipping forward.
Please note:
► Anti-tip brackets are only used for stationary
cabinets and should not be installed on cabinets
with accessory casters. Caster kits are available
for HC and HB model cabinets. Refer to the
instructions supplied with the caster kit for proper
installation.
► If installing on a concrete floor, concrete fasteners
are required and not included with the anti-tip kit.
► Some installation sites may require modifications
to provide a secure surface for attaching the
brackets.
A set of anti-tip brackets is supplied with the unit.
These brackets should be attached to the floor at
the rear of the unit. Each bracket must be located to
engage the rear glides when the cabinet is pushed
back into position. Refer to Figure 1 (shown below)
for anti-tip bracket mounting locations.
