1.
Before placing range in the counter, notice the
location of
the
stability bracket which is already
attached to the back of the range. This location
should work for most installations. However, it may
be more convenient to hook the stability chain to
the unit when the stability bracket is attached to the
upper set of holes in the back of range. See Fig.
A.
The upper level set of holes are intended for use with
a backsplash kit. If the backsplash is not being used,
make sure that there are no structural supports for
the countertop which will interfere with the stability
bracket when located in the upper set of holes.

Fig. B. Make certain
‘h
the screw is going

into the wall plate at the base
of the wall or one
of the studs in the base of the wall. See Fig. C.
Whether you attach the chain to the wall or floor,
be certain that the screw is in at least
3/4 inch
thickness of wood other than baseboard and that
there are no electrical
wires or plumbing in the area
which the screw could penetrate. Attach the stability
chain in a location which will
allow
the chain to be
in line with the bracket side to aid as much as
possible when attached to the unit. Test to see if the
chain is securely fastened by tugging on the chain.

3. Temporarily attach the loose end of the chain
to the rear of the countertop with the tape from
the packaging. See Fig. D.
4.
Place
the range
in
the counter cutout
leaving
just
enough room between the back of the range and
the wall to reach the stability bracket.
5. Hook the loose end of the chain onto the bracket
by slipping the nearest link of the chain into the
slot in the bracket. See Fig. A and make sure the
chain is
pulled
as tight as possible and that there
is no excess slack in the chain after the chain is
attached to the bracket.
A
CAUTION: Excessive slack in the chain
could allow the range to tip over.
6.
Slide the range all the way back into the counter.
Once the range is pushed back in
place,
there
will
_
be a small amount of slack in the chain. This
is normal.
NOTE:
●
If attaching to masonry, you
can
buy suitable screws
and
anchors
at
hardware stores. Use a masonry drill
to drill the required holes.
. If range is removed for cleaning or any other reason.
make sure chain is reattached.
