STEP 6 Slide the cabinet into the hole far enough to allow the guide-

channel of the sill plate to contact the inside wall surface (See

Figure F).

STEP 7 Drill three (3)

⁄

" dia. pilot holes through holes in sill-plate

into framing and install three (3) #12A x 2" long screws (See

Figure F).

NOTE: ALTERNATE FASTENERS WHICH MAY BE USED FOR

SECURING THE SILL PLATE IN THE WALL AND THE SUPPORT

BRACKETS TO THE OUTSIDE WALL (NOT FURNISHED BUT

AVAILABLE AT LOCAL HARDWARE STORE).

STEP 8 Drill two (2)

⁄

" dia. pilot holes each cabinet side at the locations

shown (see Figure F) and install four (4) #12A x 2" screws (Item

# 4, page 9). Provided that Step 5 (hole construction) provides

a sturdy mount with solid vertical studs, no support brackets

are required. The installation must support the weight of the

unit plus an additional weight of 400 pounds on the rear of the

cabinet.

If support brackets are available, they can certainly be used for

through-the-wall installations as shown in Figure F.

If the reliability of the wall is in question, a window installation kit which

includes support brackets can be ordered (see Accessories).

STEP 9 If desired, trim around the cabinet on the room side with a suitable

frame moulding furnished by the installer (see Figure F).

STEP 10 Complete the installation by following steps 13 through 18 of SASH

WINDOW INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS, pages 13-14.

STEP 11 Refer to the OPERATION SECTION for instructions.
