Temporarily wire the hood to test for

proper operation before installing. Refer

to step 8 & 9 and figure 8 on page 6.

•

Important: Peel any protective film

off the hood.

•

Use duct tape to seal the joints between

pipe sections.

•

If necessary, prepare back wall frame

with cross framing lumber for secure

installation. Refer to Table 1 and

measurements on Page 11 to decide

the level of the lumber. (Figure 2)

•

Loosen hood-mounting brackets at the

back of the hood, adjust brackets and

tighten screws as shown in Figure 3.

•

If necessary, remove the rubber stand

on the back of the hood and discard.
