INSTALLATION OF ANTI-TIP DEVICE
THE ANTI-TIP DEVICE PROVIDED WITH THIS RANGE
MUST BE INSTALLED.
PREPARATION
POSSIBLE PROPERTY DAMAGE - Use a qualified installer or contractor to
determine the proper method of attaching the anti-tip bracket to the rear wall
or floor behind your range. Special drills or tools may be needed to drill holes in the wall or floor
(ceramic tile, hardwood flooring, etc.).
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD - Use extreme caution when drilling
holes into the wall or floor as there may be hidden wires. Identify the
electrical circuits that could be affected by the installation of the anti-
tip bracket. Shut off the power to these circuits. Failure to follow these instructions may result in
death or electrical shock.
HOLE PREPARATION
The anti-tip bracket must be installed in sound materials, such as wood studs in the wall AND floor
joists under the finished floor. They must be able to withstand the forces exerted on the bracket
by the range should it tip-over. If wood studs or other suitable materials are not in the designated
area behind the range, you must attach the bracket using appropriate drywall anchors or similar
fasteners.
DRYWALL INSTALLATION: After positioning the bracket as per the diagram below, mark the
holes and drill the appropriate holes as per the instructions supplied with the wall anchors. For
hardboard or solid plaster walls, you may need different wall anchors, available at your local
hardware store or home center.
WOOD FLOOR INSTALLATION: After positioning the bracket as per the diagram below, mark the
holes and drill the appropriate holes for #12 or similar, large wood screws, at least 1.5” [3.8 cm] in
length. Use washers as well. All hardware is available at your local hardware store or home center.
CONCRETE FLOOR INSTALLATION: After positioning the bracket as per the diagram below,
mark the holes and drill the appropriate holes for #12 or similar large masonry anchors, at least 1.5”
[3.8 cm] in length. Use washers as well. All hardware is available at your local hardware store or
home center.
