KitchenAid KUD-22 Dishwasher User Manual


 
To maintain dishwasher position and alignment, locate the adjustable brackets at the upper tank corners as
shown on Fig. 13 and secure them to the countertop with self-drilling flat head wood screws (supplied). Drill
a pilot hole to a %I” (19 mm) maximum depth in the centre of the bracket mounting hole using a l/e” (3 mm)
drill bit. DO NOT exceed %” (19 mm) depth. NOTE: Make sure screw heads will not interfere with the
top of the door. If these brackets are not compatible with your countertop, the dishwasher may be anchored
to the floor, with a l/4” (6 mm) lag bolt (not supplied), through the hole in each side of the dishwasher frame
as shown in Fig. 12.
