Installation
13. Install the toekick
For installations using a continuous toekick or a cabinet matching toekick
Before installing the toekick, measurements must be taken to ensure that the toekick will not interfere with the complete opening of the dishwasher
door. |
The door panel overhang (P), and toekick depth of recess (R), determine the maximum dishwasher toekick height (H).
If (H) is equal to or less than the toekick height of the adjoining cabinets, no interference will exist, provided that (R) is at least 3/4" (19 mm).
If the door panel hits the toekick when the dishwasher door is opened, the toekick must be cut shorter or recessed deeper.
Note:
If a decorative or flush mount toekick is desired, and (R) is less than 3/4"
(19 mm), other modifications, such as beveling the top rear edge of the toekick, may be necessary.
It is extremely important that the toekick is removable in case service is needed.
