Sliding Window Installation
Make sure unit is unplugged before removing chassis
from cabinet.
1. Choose the installation site. It is imperative that window frame
assembly and side of structure are adequate to support weight of
unit. Reinforce if necessary.
2. Slide open one window sash to install support platform.
3. Attach support platform to sill plate with three (3) 3/8” long self-
tapping screws (Fig. 3).
4. Loosely attach support angle to bottom of support platform using
two (2) 7/16” long machine screws, flat washers, and nuts.
5. Place support platform against lower window track and firmly
against vertical edge of window frame (Fig. 4).
6. Attach support platform to window sill using two (2) 1” long
self-tapping screws (Fig. 4).
If required, overcome interference of support platform with
window track or storm windows by securely attaching a shim
strip to the window sill. Strip should be as long as width of
support platform and flush with back edge of sill. Thickness of
strip should be controlled by amount of interference.
7. Pull support angle against outside of structure. Tighten two (2)
7/16” long machine screws on top of support platform (Fig. 3).
8. Adjust leveling bolt to position support angle in a level plane.
This will allow for proper angle. Tighten leveling bolt locknut
(Fig. 3).
Important: Unit must be level or tilted back slightly to facilitate proper
condensate disposal.
