Step 3: Mounting the Handle (Handle Provided with Dishwasher).
See Step 3B for Custom Handle Installation.
NOTE: Use these instructions ONLY if you are using the same handle provided with
the dishwasher. You will need to purchase two ¼ - 20 bolts that are
2 ½ inches long. These can be found at any local hardware store.
3.1 Remove the handle from the front panel by removing the two screws from the back of
the front panel. Discard the two large square washers.
3.2 Drill two ¼” holes thru the custom panel per figure below. These holes are also
identified on the template.
3.3 Attach the handle to the custom panel with the two 2 ½ inch bolts. See figure above.
NOTE: The large square washer should NOT be used with a custom panel.
Step 3B: Mounting Custom Handles
If using any type of custom handle it would be best to contact a professional cabinetmaker.
All fasteners MUST be flush with the back of the panel to ensure a proper fit.
