If there is a solid soffit above the unit with
clearance between the unit and the soffit of 1"
(25) or less, you won't need to block the unit.
Refer to illustration 5 below. For installations
with clearances of more than 1" (25), you must
block the unit with the anti-tip blocking kit
(wood block and hardware) provided.
Locate and mark two wall studs against the
wall where the Built-in unit will be installed.
Then locate the proper height to clear the unit.
The space between the unit top and the
bottom of the wood block must not be more
than
1
/
4
" (6).
Position the wood block over the unit and use
the screws and ‘L‘ brackets to lock it in place.
Make sure the screws extend a minimum of
7
/
8
" (22) into each of the two wall studs. The
wood block must be positioned securely and
must extend at least 3" (76) over the unit. Refer
to illustration 6 below.
To prevent the unit from tipping forward
and provide a stable installation, the unit
must be secured in place with an anti-tip
blocking device.

Protect any finished flooring before
moving the unit into place. All Built-In
models are equipped with rollers, so you
can easily move the unit into place.
To reduce the possibility of the unit
tipping forward, the front leveling legs
must be in contact with the floor.
