drill bit perpendicular to the wall. 1/2" bit must be long enough to penetrate through exterior.

3. Remove template from rim-joist and attach to building exterior, aligning pilot hole markings on template with holes previously

created in Step #2.

lines marked in step 4. The rectangular opening should be no larger than 8-3/8" in width by 8" in height, (See Diagram C).

6. Knock out block material exposing rectangular opening through the wall.

the inner flange of the Vent Hood Terminus, (See Diagram D).

8. Slide the Vent Hood through the wall while taking care installing the rain shield as shown, (See Diagram E). The nuts located on

the Vent Hood outermost casing should be facing up when sliding it through the wall. Mount Vent Hood to the exterior using
four #8 x 3" wood screws and spacers provided, (See Diagram E). Wall anchors are provided for installation into masonry wall.
