STEP 11 INSTALL THE SIDE WINGBOARD PANELS – Be sure the
cabinet has been secured to the window sill and that the out-
side support brackets have been installed as shown in Figure
D. Raise the window sash and install the right and left side
wingboard panels. (See Figure G).
STEP 12 INSTALL THE WINDOW SEALING GASKETS – Measure
and cut the vinyl window seal gasket (grey color, Item # 12) to
fit the width of the window, and install as shown in Figure H.
Pull the window sash down behind the gasket. Measure and
cut the dark foam window seal gasket (Item #13) and install it
between the upper glass panel and the top part of the lower
sash. (See Figure H).
NOTE: FOR REASONS OF SECURITY AND SAFETY, THE
CUSTOMER MUST PROVIDE A MEANS OF PREVENTING

STEP 13 When possible, caulk the outside of the installation with
industrial type caulking to prevent weather leaks.
STEP 14 INSTALL CHASSIS – After installing the shell, slide the chassis
into the shell stopping approximately 3" from full insertion. Stuff
the chassis seal gasket one inch deep between the chassis
and the shell (see Figure I). Begin at either bottom corner and
go up the side, across the top, and down the opposite side. Then
push the chassis all the way into the shell for the remaining distance
so that the plastic front meets the front edge of the shell.
If chassis seal gasket is not installed, the operation of the unit
will be negatively affected. Operational noise and outside
noise will also be amplified.
STEP 15 Reattach the chassis retainer wire with the same screw as in
Step 3 (See Figure A).
