iH36 Mounting/Installation Instructions
MOUNTING THE iH36
We recommend the unit be mounted flush to the front edge of the cabinet.
1. Select and Set Template and Drill holes
a. Using a Template First, decide which mounting method/template you prefer, the inside the cabinet template (Mounting
Template A) or the under the cabinet template (Mounting Template B). Next, cut out the selected template on the line
indicated depending on whether your cabinet has an overhang or not. Position the chosen Mounting Template either
inside or under the cabinet with the arrow facing the front of the cabinet. Secure in place with tape.
b. Drilling There are 4 guide holes on the mounting template. We recommend that you start each hole before drilling by first
marking the center point of the guide hole then pressing an awl or nail into the mark. Always wear safety goggles when
operating a drill. For ease and accuracy of drilling, it's a good idea to drill pilot holes next using a 1/16" bit. Finally, use a
sharp 1/4" drill bit to carefully drill 4 holes through the cabinet. Make sure all holes are drilled straight, and not at an angle.
Remove any debris.
c. Remove the template
DRILLING TIPS: You may first wish to place masking tape over the opposite side you are drilling to avoid splintering. Hold drill
firmly to avoid the bit "walking".
2. Insert Spacers
a. Place the needed spacers into the mounting posts on top of the unit.
3. Mount unit to cabinet
a. From inside the cabinet, place a finishing washer above each hole and screw the
4 screws through any spacers into the mounting holes on the unit. Make sure the
unit is supported until the screws are tightened.
NOTE: For secure mounting, the screws must go into the iH36 at least 3/8".
OPTION: You may prefer to countersink the drilled holes from inside the cabinet if
you have the correct countersink attachment for your drill. This will make the screw
heads flush with the cabinet surface.
b. Tighten the screws using a Phillips head screwdriver.
CAUTION:
DO NOT USE POWER TOOLS TO TIGHTEN SCREWS
Once the unit its securely mounted, plug into a nearby 120Volt outlet. Note that there is a built-in cord wrap on the back of
the unit to wrap up any excess wire.
