3. Tipping restraint: Locate two studs in the wall behind the unit. Attach a Clip (T1) to one wall
stud with two #8 x 2" Black Screws (T3). See Figure 3a. Attach a second clip to the unit with two
#8 x 1" Pan Head Screws (T4). See Figure 3b. Connect the two clips with the Nylon Restraint
Strap (T2). Pull the Nylon Restraint Strap (T2) tight so there is no slack. See Figures 3c and 3d.
Repeat this procedure to attach the second tipping restraint. If you cannot locate two studs,
purchase the proper wall attachment hardware for your type of wall and secure the unit.
