Anti-Tip Bracket
WARNING
To prevent the unit from tipping forward, the anti-tip
brackets must be installed.
The two anti-tip brackets must be installed exactly 24"
(610) from the front of the opening to the back of the
brackets and a minimum of 4"
(102) from the sides of the
opening. This depth will increase to 26⁄"
(665) for a flush
inset installation based on ⁄"
(19) thick panels. Failure to
properly position the anti-tip brackets will prevent proper
engagement.
Use all anti-tip bracket hardware as instructed for wood or
concrete floors.
IMPORTANT NOTE: For wood or concrete floor applica-
tions, if the #12 screws do not hit a wall stud or wall plate,
use the #8 screws and #12 washers with the wall anchors.
IMPORTANT NOTE: In some installations the subflooring
or finished floor may necessitate angling the screws used
to fasten the anti-tip brackets to the back wall.
