tion.

2. CHOOSING PROPER LOCATION
FOR THE AIR CONDITIONER
This air conditioner is specifically designed for installation on
the roof of a recreational vehicle (RV).
A. NORMAL LOCATION
The air conditioner is designed to fit over an existing roof
vent opening. When the vent is removed, it normally
creates a 14-1/4" X 14-1/4" (±1/8") opening.
B. OTHER LOCATIONS
When no roof vent is available or another location is
desired, the following is recommended:
1. For one unit installation: The air conditioner should be
mounted slightly forward of center (front to back) and
centered from side to side.
2. For two unit installations: Install one Air Conditioner
1/3 and one Air Conditioner 2/3's from front of RV and
centered from side to side.
It is preferred that the air conditioner be installed in a relatively
flat and level roof section measured with the RV parked on
a level surface.
Note: A 8° slant to either side, or front to back, is acceptable
for 600312 and 600315 series.

C. AFTER LOCATION HAS BEEN SELECTED:
1. Check for obstructions in the area where air condi-
tioner will be installed.
2. The roof must be designed to support 130 pounds
when the RV is in motion. Normally a 200 lb. static
load design will meet this requirement.
3. Check inside the RV for air box obstructions (i.e. door
openings, room dividers, curtains, ceiling fixtures, etc.).
