Install Anti-Tip Bracket
Contact a qualified floor covering installer for the best procedure
for drilling mounting holes through your type of floor covering.
Before moving range, slide range onto shipping base, cardboard
or hardboard.
1. Remove template from the anti-tip bracket kit (found inside
the oven cavity).
2. Place template on the floor in cabinet opening so that the left
edge is against cabinet and top edge is against rear wall,
molding or cabinet.
3. Tape template into place.
4. If countertop is not flush with cabinet opening edge, align
template with overhang.
If cabinet opening is wider than that specified in the “Location
Requirements” section, adjust template so range will be
centered in cabinet opening.
5. To mount anti-tip bracket to wood floor, drill two ¹⁄₈" (0.32 cm)
holes at the positions marked on the bracket template.
Remove template from floor and move to step 7.
To mount the anti-tip bracket to a concrete or ceramic floor,
use a ³⁄₁₆" (0.5 cm) masonry drill bit to drill 2 holes at the
positions marked on the bracket template. Remove the
template from the floor.
6. Tap plastic anchors into holes with a hammer.
7. Align the anti-tip bracket holes with the holes in the floor.
Fasten the anti-tip bracket with the screws provided.
Depending on the thickness of your flooring, longer screws
may be necessary to anchor the bracket to the subfloor.
Longer screws are available from your local hardware store.
8. Move range close to the opening. Remove shipping base,
cardboard or hardboard from under range.
9. Open the broiler door. Use a ³⁄₈" drive ratchet to lower the rear
leveling legs one-half turn. Use a wrench or pliers to lower the
front leveling lets one-half turn.
10. Adjust the leveling legs to the correct height. Leveling legs can
be loosened to add up to a miximum of 1" (2.5 cm). A
minumum of ³⁄₁₆" (0.5 cm) is needed to engage the anti-tip
bracket.
11. Move range into its final location making sure rear leveling leg
slides into anti-tip bracket.
12. If installing the range in a mobile home, you must secure the
range to the floor. Any method of securing the range is
adequate as long as it conforms to the standards in the
“Location Requirements” section.
13. Continue installing your range using the following installation
instructions.
