ANTI-T~
DEVICE
efore placing
range
in the counter, notice the
location
of the stability bracket which is already
a[tached
to the back of the range. This location
should work
for
most installations. However, it may
he more convenient to hook the stability chain to
the unit when the stability bracket is attached to
the upper
set
O(
holes in the back of
the
range. See
Fig.
A. The upper level set of holes are intended
for
Llse
with a backsplash kit.
If
the backsplash is not
being used, make sure that
there
are no structural
supports
for
the countertop which will interfere
with the
stabilitv
bracket when located in the
.
upper set of holes.

Fig. B. Make certain
the screw is

at
the base
of
the wall or one of the studs in the base
of
the wall. See Fig. C. Whether you attach the
chain
to
the wall or
floor,
be certain that the screw
is in at least
3/4
inch thickness
of
wood other than
baseboard and that there are no electrical wires or
plumbing in the area which the screw
could
penetrate. Attach the stability chain in a location
which will allow the chain to be in line with the
bracket side to aide as much as possible when
attached to the unit. Test to see if the chain is
securely fastened by tugging on the chain.

3. Temporarily attach the loose end of the chain
to the rear
of the countertop with the tape from
the packaging. See Fig. D.

enough room between the back of the ran&e and the
wall to reach the stability bracket.
5. Hook the
loose
end of the chain onto the bracket by
slipping the nearest link of the chain into the slot in
the bracket. See Fig. A and make sure the chain is
pulled as tight as possible and that there is no
excess slack in the chain after the chain is attached
to the bracket.
A
CAUTION: Excessive slack in the chain
could allow the range to tip over.

6. Slide the range all the way back into the counter.
Once the range is pushed back in place, there will
be

small amount of slack in the chain. This
is
normal.
