Securing an alternative anti-tip

device

If the anti-tip brackets cannot be

attached securely, an alternative

anti-tip device can be used.

Ensure that there is no "give" between

the appliance and the anti-tip device.

If possible, always screw the

wooden beam to existing studs.

Cut a wooden beam

(cross section min. 29 ½" x 39

"

[75 cm x 100 cm] to the required

length).

The length is equal to the width of the

installation niche.

–

If the installation niche is deeper than

the appliance, select a beam with a

larger cross section, or attach two

beams.

–

The beam must cover the appliance

by at least 2" (50.8 mm).

^

Mark the installation height (lower

edge of the beam) on the rear wall of

the niche.

^

Select screws according to the

thickness of the wooden beam.

Example: 3 ½" (89 mm) screw for 2x4

beam.

^ Determine the number of screws

based on the cavity width, to ensure

that the beam will be attached

securely.

^ Locate wall studs near the rear wall

of the cavity and mark drill holes in

the beam.

^

Pre-drill the wooden beam.

^

Attach the wooden beam to the rear

wall of the niche.

If a side-by-side installation is

desired, connect the two appliances

together. See the Installation Manual

included with the "Merging Kit".
