Anti-Tip Bracket Installation

WOOD FLOOR APPLICATIONS

After properly locating the anti-tip brackets in the rough opening, drill pilot holes 3/16" (5) diameter maximum in the wall studs and/or wall plate. Use the #12 x 21/2" PH pan HD zinc screws and #12 flat washers to secure the brackets in place. Make sure the screws penetrate through the flooring material and into wall studs or wall plate a minimum of 3/4" (19). Refer to the illustration below.

CONCRETE FLOOR APPLICATIONS

After properly locating the anti-tip brackets in the rough opening, drill pilot holes 3/16" (5) diameter maximum in the wall studs and/or wall plate. Then drill 3/8" (10) diameter holes into the concrete a minimum of 11/2" (38) deep.

Use the #12 x 21/2" PH pan HD zinc screws and #12 flat washers to secure the brackets to the wall and use the

3/8"–16 x 33/4" wedge anchors to secure the brackets to the floor. Make sure the screws penetrate the wall studs or wall plate a minimum of 3/4" (19). Refer to the illustration below.

INSTALL CONCRETE WEDGE ANCHORS:

1)Drill a 3/8" (10) diameter hole any depth exceeding the minimum embedment. Clean the hole or continue drilling additional depth to accommodate drill fines. Use a carbide drill bit manufactured within ANSI B94.12-77.

2)Assemble the washer and nut flush with the end of anchor to protect threads. Drive the anchor through the material to be fastened until the washer is flush with the surface material.

3)Expand the anchor by tightening the nut 3–5 turns past hand-tight position or to 25 foot-pounds of torque.

Always wear safety glasses and use other necessary protective devices or apparel when installing or working with anchors.

Anchors are not recommended for use in lightweight masonry material such as block or brick, or for use in new concrete which has not had sufficient time to cure. The use of core drills is not recommended to drill holes for the anchors.
