to the remainder of the home.
CAUTION
THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE MOBILE HOME FLOOR MUST BE MAIN-
TAINED. (MOVE OPENING AND/OR REPOSITION HEATER LOCATION IF
NECESSARY).
2. Place the protective floor pad in position. For minim floor protection (See Page
s
12,20,21,23.)
3. Place the unit on the pad making sure the minimumum clearance specifications are met.
4. Lightly mark with a pencil the location of the pedestal on the protective pad.
5. Next, remove the four (4) screws holding the heater to the stand. Position heater out of the
way of the installation area.
6. Check that the pedestal stand is still aligned with the marks on the protective pad, now mark
the outside air opening in bottom of pedestal stand on to the pad.
7. Next, mark the center line of the outside air opening. Set stand aside for now.
8. Next, cut a 4 1/4" diameter hole in the pad and continue through the floor.
9. Now, reposition the pedestal stand and set on the pad being sure to line the stand up with
the reference marks.

the holes in the bottom side lips of the pedestal stand as a guide. Be careful to drill only
through the pad and not into the floor. Change the bit to a 1/4" metal bit and drill through
the floor.

LAG BOLTS.
