This right-hand lid hinge secures and guides the appliance lid for smooth, controlled opening and closing—restoring proper alignment and preventing the lid from sagging or binding. What it does:

• Supports the lid on the right side and maintains alignment during use
• Guides smooth opening and closing to prevent sudden drops or catches
• Replaces cracked, bent, or worn hinges that cause uneven gaps or misalignment
• Helps restore lid stability so it stays open or closes evenly

• Disconnect power before beginning any repair and work on a dry, stable surface
• Support the lid while removing and installing the hinge to prevent injury or damage
• Typical installation uses common hand tools (screwdriver/socket); follow OEM diagram for correct fastener locations
• Inspect mounting screws and mating surfaces; replace any damaged hardware for a secure fit
