Attaching the Bracket to a Wood Floor
If hard flooring covers the wood, drill pilot holes to expose the
wood below, then drill the mounting holes. Use the right drill bit for
the surface. Having drilled the pilot holes:
1. Drill 4 mounting holes into the wood with a 1/16” drill bit (for #8
screws) or a 1/8” bit (for #12 screws).
2. Position the anti-tip bracket holes over the holes in the floor.
3. Thread the screws into the wood, and tighten them.
Wall-Mounting the Anti-Tip Bracket
• To use this option:
- the range’s front panel (exterior surface of the door—not the
forward edge of the bull nose) must be 27 in. (68.6 cm) or
less from the wall behind the range.
- the bracket screws must be able to thread into the wall’s base
plate (see the graphic, Step 5, Pg. 7).
• Notches on the bracket sides indicate the minimum required
height of the base plate and that any floor covering does not
keep screw threads from engaging the base plate.
Using the graphic in Step 4 and the final installation cabinet/cutout
dimensions, find the range’s center line and front panel location.
1. Determine and mark the position of the anti-tip bracket.
2. Place the bracket in position.
3. Mark a dot at the notch on each side of the bracket.
4. Drill just deep enough to see if the bit contacts the base plate.
- If the bit contacts the base plate, wall mounting is suitable.
- If the bit does not contact the base plate, you must either
floor-mount the bracket.)
Attaching the Bracket to a Concrete Floor
1. Through existing flooring, drill four 3/8” diameter countersink
holes to (but not into) the concrete slab.
2. With a masonry bit, drill four anchor holes 1-1/4” (3.2 cm) into
the concrete slab using a 3/16” drill bit. This depth is longer
than the anchor but needed for proper installation.
3. Clear the holes of dust and debris.
4. With a hammer, tap an anchor into each hole so the anchor
top is flush with the slab surface.
5. Align the bracket holes with the anchor holes.
6. Thread and tighten the screws into the anchors.

1. Determine the installed range’s center line and position of the
front panel based on the Product Dimensions (Pg. 3) and the
actual cabinet/cutout dimensions used for the installation.
2. Using the previous diagrams, determine placement of the anti-
tip bracket. Pencil the four mounting-hole locations on the floor.
3. Determine the screw size. Minimum full thread depth (portion
of screw threaded into wood/slab) for wood is 3/8” (1 cm) and
for concreter is 5/8” (1.6 cm). See SCREW SIZE TABLE (Pg.
7) to select the correct screw size.
