Foundation for Installation
• Fix the unit tightly with bolts as shown below so that unit will not fall
down due to earthquake or gust.
• Use the H-beam support as a base support
• Noise and vibration may occur from the floor or wall since vibration is
transferred through the installation part depending on installation
status. Thus, use anti-vibration materials (cushion pad) fully (The base
pad shall be more than 200 mm (7-7/8 inch)).
Ⓐ The corner part must be fixed firmly. Otherwise, the support for the
installation may be bent.
Ⓑ Get and use M10 Anchor bolt.
Ⓒ Put Cushion Pad between the outdoor unit and ground support for
the vibration protection in wide area.
Ⓓ Space for pipes and wiring (Pipes and wirings for bottom side)
Ⓔ H-beam support
Ⓕ Concrete support
WARNING
!
• Install where it can sufficiently support the weight of the
outdoor unit. If the support strength is not enough, the outdoor
unit may drop and hurt people.
• Install where the outdoor unit may not fall in strong wind or
earthquake. If there is a fault in the supporting conditions, the
outdoor unit may fall and hurt people.
• Please take extra cautions on the supporting strength of the
ground, water outlet treatment(treatment of the water flowing
out of the outdoor unit in operation), and the passages of the
pipe and wiring, when making the ground support.
• Do not use tube or pipe for water outlet in the Base pan. Use
drainage instead for water outlet. The tube or pipe may freeze
and the water may not be drained.
CAUTION
!
• Be sure to remove the Pallet(Wood Support) of the bottom side
of the outdoor unit Base Pan before fixing the bolt. It may cause
the unstable state of the outdoor settlement, and may cause
freezing of the heat exchanger resulting in abnormal operations.
• Be sure to remove the Pallet(Wood Support) of the bottom side
of the outdoor unit before welding. Not removing Pallet(Wood
Support) causes hazard of fire during welding.

Preparation of Piping
Main cause of gas leakage is defect in flaring work. Carry out correct
flaring work in the following procedure.
Cut the pipes and the cable
- Use the accessory piping kit or the pipes purchased locally.
- Measure the distance between the indoor and the outdoor unit.
- Cut the pipes a little longer than measured distance.
- Cut the cable 1.5 m (4.92 ft) longer than the pipe length.

Slanted Uneven Rough
tube
90°
Burrs removal
- Completely remove all burrs from the cut cross section of pipe/tube.
- Put the end of the copper tube/pipe to downward direction as you
remove burrs in order to avoid to let burrs drop in the tubing.

Firmly hold copper tube in a bar(or die) as indicated dimension in the
table above.
Check
- Compare the flared work with figure below.
- If flare is noted to be defective, cut off the flared section and do
flaring work again.
