2.Attaching an alternative anti-tip device

Important note:

If the anti-tip brackets cannot be attached securely,

an alternative anti-tip-device can be attached. However, ensure that there is no play between the appliance and the anti-tip-device. If possible, always screw the wooden beam to existing studs on the rear panel of the installation niche.

1.Saw the wooden beam (cross section min. 3" x 4") to the required length. Length is equal to the width of the installation niche!

Note:

If the installation niche is deeper than the appliance, select a beam which has a larger cross section or attach 2 beams.

The beam must cover the appliance by at least 2" (50.8 mm).

3.Attaching the edge protectors

To protect the edges of the installation niche, it is recommended to attach edge protection made of a suitable material.

Attach the edge protection with the adhesive tape which was used to attach the accessories to the appliance.

2.Mark the installation height (lower edge of the beam) on the rear panel of the installation niche.

3.Select screws according to the thickness of the wooden beam: length = min. 2.5 x beam thickness, diameter #12 or #14.

Note:

Choose the number of screws according to the installation niche width, thereby ensuring that the beam can be attached securely.

4.Depending to the subsurface:

Locate wall studs in the rear of the installation niche and accordingly transfer their location to the wooden beam

or

fasten suitable dowel into the rear wall.

5.Predrill the wooden beam.

6.Attach the wooden beam to the rear panel of the installation niche.

4.Attaching the fastening sheets (lateral)
