ensure all components have been shipped. The unit is easiest assembled in the upside down position
as shown in the instructions.
Assembly
1. Take all parts out of the shipping box and check if all parts are present.
2. Turn one roof vent housing (MIS-6778) upside down. (See Figure 8A.)
3. Insert 5/16" x 1-1/4" bin bolt with neoprene washer through hole in the side of roof vent. Place
jamb nut onto the bolt and tighten. (See Figure 8A.)
4. Slide flap assembly (MIS-6777) on to bolt. The bolt should slide through hole in the flap assembly
bracket. Install with curvature cupped upward and the brackets in the position as shown in Figure 8A .
5. Insert 5/16" x 1-1/4" bin bolt with neoprene washer through the other side of the roof vent, through
jamb nut and other flap assembly bracket. Tighten nut against vent housing side.
6. Apply a bead of tube caulking around three (3) housing sides of the roof vent where it meets the
hold-down angle.
7. Place hold-down angle (MIS-4404) on the assembled roof vent. The wide end of the hold-down angle
must face vent discharge. Once aligned, screw nine (9) #10 self-drilling (S-280) screws through the
roof housing and into the hold-down angle.
