INSTALLING THE ANTI-TIP BRACKET
Once installed
Check for proper installation of the range and anti-tip bracket by grasping the back of the range
and carefully attempting to tilt it forward.
All ranges must have an anti-tip device correctly installed as per the following instructions. If you pull
the range out from the wall for any reason, make sure that the device is properly engaged when you
push the range back against the wall. If it is not, there is a risk of the range tipping over and causing
injury if you or a child stand, sit or lean on an open oven door.
Instructions are provided for wood and concrete floors. Any other type of construction may require
special installation techniques as deemed necessary to provide adequate fastening of the anti-tip
bracket to the floor and wall. Theuse of this bracket does not preclude tipping of the range when not
properly installed.
Concrete or cement substrate
1 Locate the bracket as shown.
2 Using the bracket as a template, drill (x2)
5/16" diameter pilot holes in the center
of the larger holes to a depth of at least
1 3/4".
3 Place the sleeve anchors into the holes
and use a hammer to tap them all the
way in.
4 Tighten the nuts on the sleeve anchors to
fasten the bracket securely to the floor.
Wood substrate
1 Place the bracket against the back wall,
into the right rear corner where
the range is to be located. Leave a 1/2"
(13mm) gap between the wall (or side of
range) and the bracket, as shown.
2 Drill 1/8" diameter pilot holes in the center
of the two small holes. A nail or awl may
be used if a drill is not available.
3 Fasten the bracket securely to the floor
and wall.
