ABSTRACT:
A tipover prevention apparatus for an appliance includes a wall-mounted bracket which secures an appliance tether cable extending horizontally across the wall-facing side of the appliance. The bracket includes a plurality of downwardly extending hooks for removably securing the appliance tether cable, each of which hooks includes an interior relieved area in which the appliance tether cable is positioned. A pair of forwardly extending ridges located on the extreme right and left edges of the bracket impart tension to the appliance tether cable, maintaining the appliance tether cable in proper position.
