Installation Instructions
SECURE THE OVEN IN THE OPENING
SLIDE THE OVEN INTO THE
OPENING
Loop (do not tie) the correct length of
string around the conduit before the
oven is slid into place. This will keep the
conduit from falling improperly behind
the oven. For the single wall oven, locate
string toward the middle at the bottom
of the oven. For the double wall oven,
locate string toward the right side at the
bottom of the oven.
On a single wall oven, lift the oven into
cabinet cutout using the bottom of the
oven and the bottom of the door as a
grip. Carefully push against the front
edges of the door. On a double wall
oven, lift the oven into cabinet cutout
using the lower oven opening as a grip.
Carefully push against oven front frame.
Do not push against outside edges.
As you slide the oven back, pull the
string so that the conduit will lie behind
the oven in a natural loop.
Once the oven is in the cutout, place the
level on an oven rack inside the oven to
make sure the oven is level from front to
back and from side to side. Use shims as
required.
NOTE: If marks, blemishes or the cutout
opening are visible above the installed oven,
it may be necessary to add wood shims
under the runners and front trim until the
marks or opening are covered.
Once the oven is level and all the way
in the opening, remove the string by pulling
on one end of the loop.

DRILL THE PILOT HOLES AND
MOUNT THE OVEN
NOTE: Before drilling the pilot holes, make
sure the oven is pushed as far back into the
opening as it will go, is level and is centered.
Drill six 1/8” pilot holes through the
mounting holes (top and bottom) of the
side trim, for the #8 screws provided.
Drill ten holes for the Double Oven.
WARNING:
Mounting screws must
be used. Failure to do so could result in the
oven falling out of the cabinet causing
serious injury.
Secure the oven to cabinet with screws
provided.
NOTE: If the cabinet is particle board, you
must use #8 x 3/4” particle board screws.
These may be purchased at any hardware
store.
