Installing the Anti-Tip Bracket to the Floor
1. Determine the location of the range center line and front
panel for the range’s final position based on the Product
Dimensions on page 5 and the actual cabinet / cutout
dimensions used for the installation.
2. Determine the placement of the anti-tip bracket, based on the
diagram below. Mark the four (4) mounting hole locations on
the floor with a pencil.
3. Determine the screw size required. The minimum full thread
depth (portion of screw threaded into wood/slab) for wood is
3/8” (1 cm) and 5/8” (1.6 cm) for concrete. See SCREW SIZE
TABLE to select the correct screw size.
Attaching the Bracket to a Concrete Floor:
• Drill four (4) 3/8” diameter countersink holes through any
existing floor covering down to the concrete slab below.
• Drill four (4) holes for the anchors 1 1/4” (3.2 cm) deep
into the concrete slab using a 3/16” masonry bit. This hole
length is longer than the anchor, but is required for proper
installation.
• Clear the holes of dust and any other material.
• Take a hammer and tap each anchor into the hole until the
anchor top is flush against the concrete slab.
• Place the anti-tip bracket on top of the anchors.
• Position the anti-tip bracket holes over the anchor holes,
and thread the screws into the anchors. Be sure the screw
threads fully engage the anchor body.
• Tighten the screws into place.
Attaching the Bracket to a Wood Floor:
If there is ceramic, asphalt, or another hard floor covering over
the wood, drill holes to allow access to the wood below for drilling
mounting holes.
Use the correct type of drill bit for the surface you will be drilling.
Once you have hit wooden flooring:
• Drill four (4) mounting holes into the wood using a drill bit
(1/16” dia. for #8 screws, 1/8” dia. for #12 screws).
• Position the anti-tip bracket holes over the holes in the floor.
• Insert the screws into the wood and tighten into place.
Installing the Anti-Tip Bracket to the Floor
WARNING
To perform its intended function, the anti-tip bracket must be
attached as instructed to the concrete slab or wood sub-floor
that is below any floor coverings (including cement board).
Do not attach the anti-tip bracket directly to floor coverings such
as ceramic/asphalt tile or linoleum.
Use the anchors and four (4) of the Phillips head screws when
attaching the anti-tip bracket to a concrete sub-floor.
• Four (4) plastic anchors
• 1-inch #8 (4)
• 1 1/4-inch #8 (4)
• 1 3/4-inch #12 (4)
Do not use these plastic anchors when attaching to a wooden
sub-floor.
