Anti-tip bracket centerline
PRO 48 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
To prevent the PRO 48 from tipping
forward and provide a stable installation,
the unit must be secured in place with
the anti-tip bracket shipped with the unit
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Placement of the anti-tip
bracket is critical to a stable installation. It
must be installed exactly 660 mm from the
front of the face frame of the unit to the back
of the anti-tip bracket. Also, the centering line
on the lower flange of the anti-tip bracket must
be centered in the rough opening. Failure to
properly position the anti-tip bracket will
prevent it from engaging the unit. Be sure that
the anti-tip bracket is installed on a solid base.
Refer to the illustrations below.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
For a stable installation,
be sure to use all anti-tip bracket hardware as
instructed for wood or concrete floors to
properly secure the bracket.
Wood floors
Make sure that there are no electrical
wires or plumbing in the area which the
screws could penetrate.
WOOD FLOOR APPLICATIONS
Use the twelve #12 x 51mm wood screws and
the twelve #12 flat washers provided. Drill
pilot holes 5 mm diameter maximum and be
sure that the screws penetrate through the
flooring material and into the wall plate a
minimum of 19. Be sure that the screws hold
tight. Refer to the illustration below.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If the wood screws do not
hit a wall stud in any of the upper holes on the
anti-tip bracket, use the provided #8–18 x
31,75 mm wood screw, #12 flat washer and
nylon zip-it wall anchor in its place.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
In some installations the
subflooring or finished floor may necessitate
angling the wood screws used to fasten the
anti-tip bracket to the back wall. Refer to the
illustration below.
