BPlace the anti-tip floor bracket onto the locator template with its RH floor holes lined up with

the floor holes indicated on the template sheet, approximately 71⁄4″ from the edge of the sheet or the RH side of the refrigerator.

CHold down in position and use the anti-tip floor bracket as a template for marking the holes based upon your configuration and type of construction as shown in Step 3. Mark the hole locations with a pencil, nail or awl.

NOTE:

•It is REQUIRED to use at least 2 screws to mount the floor bracket (one on each side of the anti-tip floor bracket). Both must be into either the wall or the floor. Figure 2 indicates all the acceptable mounting configurations for screws. Identify the screw holes on the anti-tip floor bracket for your configuration.
