Installing the Anti-Tip Bracket
Locate the anti-tip bracket included in the parts box.
There are two ways to mount the anti=tip bracket:
•Floor mounting (preferred method).
• Walt mounting (alternate method). Use this method if floor
mounting is not suitable. If any of the conditions below exist,
then the walt mounting method can not be used and the floor
mounting method must be suitable.
The anti-tip bracket may not be mounted to the wall if:
¢ The wall contains metal stud mounting materials that
interfere with the anti-tip bracket mounting screws.
¢ The front panel of the range is further than the maximum
distance from the back walt stated on page 9.
¢ A raised vent is installed.
¢The flooring is too thick (see Installing the Anti-Tip
Bracket on the Wall).
Installing the Anti=Tip Bracket on the Floor
WARNING
To Perform its intended function, the anti-tip bracket must be
ttached as instructed tothe concrete slab Or WOod sub'floor
be!ow any floor coverings (including cement beard)on t0pl Do
not attach the anti4ip bracket directly to floor coverings such as
ceramic/asphalt tile or linoleum.
Four (4) plastic anchors are provided along with three sizes
(4 each) of #8 or #12 Phillips head screws for attaching the anti-
tip bracket to the floor. Use both the anchors and four (4) dthe
#8 screws when attaching the bracket to a concrete sub-floor. Do
not use the anchors when attaching to a wood sub-floor.
Anti-tip
bracket
1, Determine the location of the range center line and front
panel when the range is in its final position based on the
Product Dimensions on page 4, and the actual cabinet/
cutout dimensions used for the installation.
2. Determine the required position of the anti-tip bracket,
based on the diagram on the facing page. 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 the table
below to select the correct screw size.

1/2" and up to 1 3/16" thick
Concrete sub-floor under floor covering Must be purchased
over 1/2" thick separately **
Wood sub-floor, floor covering Must be purchased
over 1 3/16" thick separately **
Included with range
** Not included. Determine length based on step 3.
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 the 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 ddust and any other material. Tap each
anchor into the hole until the anchor top is flush with the top
of the concrete slab. Position the anti-tip bracket holes over
the anchor holes. Insert the screws through the 4 holes in
the base of the bracket and thread them 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 other hard floor covering over
the wood below, drill 4 countersink holes to allow access to
the wood below for drilling pilot holes.
•Drill 4 pilot holes into the wood floor 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 on the Wall
1. To use the wall mount option, the range front panel must not
be more than 26 1/4" from the wall and the bracket screws
must be able to thread into the base plate inside the wall
behind. The notches on the sides of the bracket indicate the
minimum required height of the base plate inside the wall and
that any floor covering is not too thick for proper screw thread
engagement.
