Anti Tip Device Needed
The anti-tip bracket is designed to prevent the range from tipping forward or over if to much weight is placed on the open oven door. Many accidents from tipping have occurred due to hot stove top items spilling and burning individuals including children climbing on the open oven door. Small children have been crushed to death when the range tipped over after the oven door was climbed on by the child.
The image shows a simple anti tip bracket which is supplied by the manufacturer along with the range package but unfortunately often is not installed, creating a safety issue. The inexpensive device can be purchased at Home Depot or other home improvement stores. For more info on Anti Tip Devices visit our blog on this website.
