  • Improper lifting can cause severe personal injury. Have sufficient manpower for lifting and mounting the cabinet.

Procedure

  1. Check the location to be sure no wires, plumbing, gas, or exhaust lines run behind the wall.
  2. Install two mounting bolts in the wall for the top cabinet mounting keyholes.
  3. With the shipping box upright, carefully remove the top and sides of the box.
  4. Raise the cabinet and mount it on the two top mounting bolts in the wall.
  5. Install two bottom mounting bolts but do not tighten.
  6. Push the cabinet against the wall; shim the mounting bosses if it will not align flush.
  7. Tighten all mounting bolts.
