Whirlpool Range Anti-Tip Bracket (W11602886)

The Whirlpool Range Anti-Tip Bracket mounts to the floor or wall and locks the rear leg of the range in place. It helps keep the range from tipping forward when weight is applied to an open oven door.

Failure is often caused by the bracket loosening over time, pulling out of the mounting surface, or getting bent during moving or cleaning. Improper installation, missing hardware, or a damaged rear leveling leg can also prevent the range from engaging the bracket.

If your range is not staying secured at the rear, these symptoms can help you decide if this part addresses the issue:

• The range rocks or shifts when you push on the cooktop.
• The range tilts forward when the oven door is opened.
• The rear of the range pulls away from the wall after cleaning or moving.
• You cannot feel the rear leg drop into place when sliding the range back.
• The existing bracket is missing, bent, cracked, or stripped at the mounting holes.
