Attaching the anti-tip brackets

WARNING

Risk of injury and damage!
Assure that there are no electrical wires or

plumbing in the area which the screws could

penetrate.

WARNING

Risk of injury! Always wear safety glasses and

other necessary protective devices or apparel

when installing or working with dowels.

Important note:
If a Side-by-Side set up of two appliances is envisaged,

the anti-tip brackets are needed as installation aid.

Connect the appliances before the anti-tip brackets are

fixed to the wall, see “Side-by-Side installation”.
Notes:
–

Each appliance requires 2 anti-tip brackets.

–

The set supplied, contains fastening screws for

various subsurfaces. Select the fastening screws

corresponding to the local conditions.

–

If the anti-tip brackets, and therefore the appliance,

cannot be securely attached with the supplied

fastening screws, another suitable method must be

used to attach the appliance securely.

The anti-tip-brackets (a) must overlap a minimum of

” (54 mm) over the appliance to secure the

appliance.
If this minimum length cannot be observed for structural

conditions it is possible to do this by fastening

a spacer (b) behind the anti-tip angle, e.g. a sufficiently

dimensioned wood board.

The length of the plank should correspond to the width of

the installation niche!

1. Specify the attachment points of the anti-tip-brackets

according to the section on “Dimensions of the

installation niche”.

2. Attach the anti-tip-brackets completely.

Be sure screws hold tight.

Important notes for fastening with dowels and screws:
–

Not recommended for use in light-weight masonry

material such as cinder block.

–

Not recommended for use in new concrete which

has not had time to cure.

–

Do not use spiral-flute counterbores (countersinking

tool) to drill the holes.
