FURNITURE TIPPING RESTRAINT
Young children may be injured by tipping furniture. The use of a tipping restraint is highly recommended.
When properly installed, this restraint could provide protection against the unexpected tipping of furniture due to
small tremors, bumping or climbing. We recommend mounting this restraint to a wall stud.
WARNING: This product is only a deterrent. It is not a substitute for proper adult supervision.

(L) Brackets – 2pcs
(M) Long screws – 2pcs

furniture piece. Locate a stud in the wall behind
that furniture piece. Mark the location on the

center of the stud with a 3/32” drill bit. Attach a
bracket to the stud with the long screws
provided.

to be attached to the furniture frame at the top.
To do this, temporarily move the furniture into
its final position and mark the location of the
wall bracket on th e f ur niture frame.
3. Move the furniture away from the wall and
place a bracket on the mark. Mark and drill
holes for screws with a 3/32” drill bit. Attach
the bracket to the furniture with the short

screwed into wall and the furniture bracket is
