Installation Instructions
D. ALIGNING THE WALL PLATE
Hole A
Hole C
CAUTION: Wear gloves
to avoid cutting fingers on Area E sharp edges.
1Draw a vertical line on the wall at the center of the 30″ (76.2 cm) wide space.
2Use the mounting plate as the template for the rear wall. Place the mounting plate on the wall, making sure that the tabs are touching the bottom of the cabinet or the level line drawn in Step C for cabinets with front overhang. Line up the notch and center line on the mounting plate to the center line on the wall.
While holding the mounting plate with one hand,
3draw circles on the wall at holes A, B, C and D (see illustration above/actual plate marked with arrows). Four holes must be used for mounting.
Hole B
Draw a Vertical Line on Wall from Center of Top Cabinet
Hole D
NOTE: Holes C and D are inside area E. If neither C nor D is in a stud, find a stud somewhere in area E and draw a fifth circle to line up with the stud. It is important to use at least one wood screw mounted firmly in a stud to support the weight of the microwave.
Set the mounting plate aside.
4Drill holes on the circles. If there is a stud, drill a 3⁄16″ hole for wood screws. For holes that don’t line up with a stud, drill a 5⁄8″ hole for toggle bolts.
NOTE: DO NOT MOUNT THE PLATE AT THIS TIME.
