Step 5: Option C - Preparing the top cabinet
You need to drill holes for the top support screws and a hole large enough for the power cord to fit through.
1 Turn off the power to the outlet in the cabinet.
2 Remove everything from the cabinet.
3 Trim the Top Cabinet Template along the dotted line.
4 If the bottom of your cabinet is recessed and the template is too large, trim the edges to fit. Your template should fit
snugly inside the space with no overhang.
5 To position the Top Cabinet Template:
• Align the center line on the template with the center line that you drew on the wall.
• Align the back edge of the template to the rear wall (smooth or flat bottom cabinets) or to the back of the recess
(recessed cabinets) to make sure that the holes cut into the upper cabinet align with the holes in the top of the
microwave.
6 Tape the template to the bottom of the cabinet.
7 Drill ½" holes through the template at points D and E.
8 Cut a 2" diameter hole at point F for the power cord.
9 Remove the template.
Notes:
• Make sure that you keep the left and right sides even. For example, if you need to trim the sides by 1", cut 1/2" from the left side and
1/2" from the right side.
• Some cabinets have a small bracket or glue block between the overhang and the underside of the cabinet bottom. Cut the template
to fit around these so it lies flat on the bottom of the cabinet.
CAUTION: Wear safety goggles when drilling holes in the cabinet bottom.
