1. Attaching the anti-tip brackets
ãWARNING
Risk of injury and damage!
Assure that there are no electrical wires or
plumbing in the area which the screws could
penetrate.
ãWARNING
Risk of injury! Always wear safety glasses and
other necessary protective devices or apparel
when installing or working with dowels.
Important note:
If a Side-by-Side set up of two appliances is envisaged,
the anti-tip brackets are needed as installation aid.
Connect the appliances before the anti-tip brackets are
fixed to the wall, see “Side-by-Side installation”.
Notes:
– Each appliance requires 2 anti-tip brackets.
– The set supplied, contains fastening screws for
various subsurfaces. Select the fastening screws
corresponding to the local conditions.
– If the anti-tip brackets, and therefore the appliance,
cannot be securely attached with the supplied
fastening screws, another suitable method must be
used to attach the appliance securely.
The anti-tip-brackets (a) must overlap a minimum of
21/8" (54 mm) over the appliance to secure the
appliance.
If this minimum length cannot be observed for structural
conditions it is possible to do this by fastening
a spacer (b) behind the anti-tip angle, e.g. a sufficiently
dimensioned wood board.
The length of the plank should correspond to the width
of the installation niche!
1. Specify the attachment points of the an ti-tip-brackets
according to the section on “Dimensions of the
installation niche”.
2. Attach the anti-tip-brackets completely.
Be sure screws hold tight.
Important notes for fastening with dowels and screws:
– Not recommended for use in light-weight masonry
material such as cinder block.
– Not recommended for use in new concrete which
has not had time to cure.
– Do not use spiral-flute counterbores (countersinking
tool) to drill the holes.
