o  Transfer measurements for the location of the electrical outlet onto 
  the back of the Wall Microwave Shelf. Cut the hole in the cabinet 
  back to accommodate the outlet box. If no outlet exists, check your 
  microwave oven manufacturer’s recommendation.
o  Install the cabinet following the Installation Requirements. Once 
  the cabinet is mounted, slide the cabinet shelf (shipped not installed) 
  into the cabinet with the pilot holes facing down. Attach the shelf to 
  the cabinet using the (6) #8 x 1-1/4" screws with washers provided 
  with cabinet.

o  Drill 11/64" holes from the front side of the door for decorative 
  hardware. It is recommended to apply masking tape on both sides of 
  the door stile and drawer assemblies in order to reduce tear   
  out when drilling. This is also beneficial for marking the drilling hole 
 location.
o  It is recommended on Full Overlay door styles to keep the door ajar 
  when drilling through the stile so the drill bit does not strike the 
  cabinet frame.
o  Countersinking the hardware screws to the proper depth will 
  prevent the screw heads from striking the cabinet frames during 
  normal operation.
