Installing the Anti-tip Bracket and Foot
There are two ways to mount the anti-tip bracket: Floor mounting (preferred), and wall mounting (Pg. 19).
Wall-mount the bracket if floor mounting is unsuitable; however, if the range’s front panel is over 26 1/2” (67.3
cm) from the back wall or if the floor is too thick, floor mounting must be used.
Floor-Mounting the Anti-tip Bracket
To perform as designed, the anti-tip bracket must attach to the concrete slab or wood sub-floor below any
upper flooring (including cement board). Do not attach the anti-tip bracket directly to floor coverings such
as ceramic/asphalt tile or linoleum.
•
Four plastic anchors are provided with three sizes (4 each)
of #8 and #12 Phillips head screws for attaching the anti-tip
bracket to the floor. Use both anchors and four of the screws
to attach the bracket to a concrete sub-floor. Do not use
anchors on a wood sub-floor.
• Determine the location of the range center line and front
panel for the range’s final position (see
Product Dimen-
sions
, Pg. 13) and the actual cabinet/cutout dimensions
used for the installation.
