Step 1

Check beneath the counter top for a set of mounting brackets. If none are present, purchase a kit from your local hardware or appliance store.

Step 2

Carefully pull the dishwasher out from beneath the cabinet.

Step 3

Slide the lip of each bracket into the mounting holes on top of the dishwasher collar. Bend the tab above the mounting holes over the bracket with a pair of pliers.

Step 4

Push the dishwasher back into place carefully. Fit an electric drill with a Philips screwdriver bit, and screw mounting screws through the brackets and into the underside of the counter top.
