3. Using 2 or more people, lift microwave oven and hang it on 

support tabs at the bottom of mounting plate.

NOTE: To avoid damage to the microwave oven, do not grip or 
use the door or door handle while the microwave oven is being 
handled.

cord through the power supply cord hole in the bottom of the 
upper cabinet.

hardware stores.

Overtightening bolts may warp the top of the microwave oven. 
To avoid warping, wood filler blocks may be added. The
