mounting instructions
TOOLS NEEDED: 1) Electric drill with 1/4??? bit; 2)
STEP 1
If your cabinet does NOT have an overhang:
a)Place the Mounting Template in the desired location inside or underneath the cabinet (whichever has less obstructions, and will be easier for you to reach to drill holes), flush with the front edge of the cabinet and tape it down. Go to STEP 2.
If your cabinet DOES have an overhang:
a)Measure the thickness ???T??? of the cabinet overhang (see Figure 1).
STEP 3
If your cabinet does NOT have an overhang:
a)Eight screws are included with this unit, but you will only need four of them. Select the screw length which will go completely through your cabinet bottom, and provide at least 3/8??? of thread to screw into the main unit.
b)Insert the four selected screws through each hole from the inside of the cabinet going down (see Figure 4).

Screw
b)Fold the Mounting Template along the guideline that is closest to the thickness of your cabinet overhang.
c)Tape Mounting Template to the underside of the cabinet with the folded portion of the Mounting
Template flush up against the cabinet overhang
(see Figure 2). Go to STEP 2.
Figure 2
STEP 2
Use an electric drill with a ????? drill bit (not included) to drill all four holes marked on the Mounting Template (see Figure 3). To reduce splintering, place a small piece of masking tape over each hole location before drilling. Go to STEP 3.
Template

Figure 4
c)Hold the unit up against the bottom of the cabinet, and align the four holes on the top of the unit with the screws. Partially tighten each screw, but do not fully tighten the screws until all of them have been started.
d)Gently tighten each screw until they are firmly holding the unit in place.
If your cabinet DOES have an overhang:
a)Four screws are included with this unit. Make sure the screws will go completely through your cabinet bottom, and extend at least 3/8??? past the bottom of your cabinet overhang.
b)This unit includes two sets of four spacers of different length.The spacers can be put together to form longer spacers to accommodate various cabinet overhang thicknesses. Determine the best combination of spacers which is equal to or longer than the cabinet overhang thickness.
(Continued on next page)
mounting instructions
(Continued from previous page)
c)Insert the four selected screws through each hole from the inside of the cabinet going down (see Figure 5).
Figure 5
d)Hold each screw head down and push the unit and spacers onto the screws, then hold the unit up until spacers are firmly against the bottom of the cabinet (and fully nested within each other if you are using multiple spacers for each screw).
e)Partially tighten each screw, but do not fully tighten the screws until all of them have been started (see Figure 6).
Figure 6
f)Gently tighten each screw until they are firmly holding the unit in place. The top front edge of the unit should clear the overhang.
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of fire, do not place any heating or cooking apparatus beneath this unit.
Mounting Suggestions
1)If your cabinet has obstructions inside it which prevent you from using the template, cut out the corresponding area on the template, but do NOT cut out or through the screw holes.
2)If your cabinet has obstructions underneath it, which will interfere with the mounting of the unit, remove the obstruction before mounting the unit, or find another location to mount the unit.
3)It is recommended that you wear safety glasses while drilling to prevent eye injuries.
4)For wood cabinets, you may want to mark the hole locations with a nail, pressed gently but firmly into the wood so that a slight impression is made. This will also help keep the drill bit centered in the right location.
5)Hold the drill firmly against the cabinet to keep the drill from ???walking???.
