Stove Tip Bracket

Al Carrell: " Unfortunately, you may have a danger zone in your kitchen that you don't even know about!"

Michael Holigan: " But, it's right here where you should expect it, and that's with the stove and oven combination. Unfortunately if you ever pull anything heavy out of the oven, and it lands on the oven door, it can tilt up your stove top, and any pots or pans can come down on top of you, and possibly burn you".

A.C.: " You know this doesn't have to happen, because when the manufacture sent the stove out to you, there was an anti-temp bracket. Sometimes its' not installed, and when it's not, you really have a problem.

M.H.: " It's really easy to check for, just grab the back of your stove, pull on it, and if it does tip up, the bracket was not put in by your builder.

A.C.: " If you don't have one, get one, and we'll show you how easy it is to install. Any time you're going to move any heavy appliance, you want to be sure and put some corrugated board in under there, so it'll slide across the floor, and that way you're not going to do any damage to your flooring.

M.H.: " On your anti-tip bracket, follow the instructions that are enclosed, and measure across how far you should place it, and then go ahead and screw it into the wall behind the oven and stove combination.

A.C.: " And then you want to slide the stove back into place, take the drawer out and take a look in there to be sure that the bracket and stove are engaged. Now, if you want to check it, and that's as far as it will move.

M.H.: " And now it's safe for you and your family. Now if you can't find a tip bracket that should have been with your appliance, contact your local appliance dealer, or you can write us, or contact us on the internet at the addresses on the end of the show, and we'll give you the 800 number for your manufacture".

A.C.: " However you get in touch with us... just do it".
