Wall Construction
Your Over-the-Range
microwave oven should be mounted against and supported by a flat, vertical wall. Wall construction should be
a minimum of 2" x 4" wall studding and 3/8" or more, thick drywall or plaster/lath. The oven must be attached to a minimum of one
2" x 4" wall stud.
For proper installation the wall must be capable of supporting the cabinet load plus a minimum of 135 pounds, (the 85 pound weight
of the microwave oven and load weight allowance of 50 pounds.) To find studs, use one of the following methods:
I. Stud finder a magnetic
Usually 16"or 24"

II. Using a hammer, tap lightly across the mounting
to find a solid sound. This will indicate a stud

installation. After locating the stud(s), the center can be
found by: Probing the wall with a small nail to find the
edges of the stud and then placing a mark halfway
between the edges. The center of any adjacent studs
should be 16" or 24" from this mark.

Duct

Outside ventilation requires HOOD
EXHAUST DUCT. Read the tbllowing
carefully.
EXHAUST CONNECTION: The hood
exhaust has been desigled to mate with a
standard 3-1/4" x 10" rectangular duct.
If round duct is required, a rectaugular-toround trausition adapter nmst be used. Do not
use less thau a 6" diameter duct.

REAREXHAUST:If rear or horizontal

exhaust is to be used, care should be taken to
align exhaust with space between studs, or wall
should be prepared at the time it is comstmcted
by leaviug euough space between wall studs to
accolmnodate exhaust.
MAXIIVRJMDUCT LENGTH: For
satisfactory air movement, the total duct length
of 3-1 '4" x 10" rectaugular or 6" diameter
round duct should not exceed 140 feet of
