INSTALLING UNIT IN A SLIDING WINDOW

STEP 1:
ATTACH SUPPORT BRACE TO PLATFORM
Use adjustment bolt and hex flange nut to complete
assembly. Choose slot and adjustment bolt hole locations
that will create a 45 degree angle between platform and
support brace. Try assembly in the window to determine
if platform will rest properly, and allow proper slope. (
lower on outside). (Fig. 1)
NOTE: If you are planning to use a sliding-protection board
(See Step 5) on the outside of your house, hold board in
place when testing assembly of window.

may also require adjustments to the measurement. (Fig. 2)
STEP 3:

CAUTION
Property Damage Hazard-Failure to adhere to the
following precaution could result in damage to window
or air conditioner. Be sure wood stool or window track
is securely attached to the building construction. Use
longer screws in sub-framing if necessary.
STEP 4:
PEEL OFF PROTECTIVE BACKING FROM
TRACK SEAL.
Next, apply seal to room side of window track. Center of
seal strip should coincide with the line marked in Step 2.
The two screw holes drilled in Step 3 should be directly
above seal strip in the inner track. (Fig. 5)
STEP 5:
SECURELY ATTACH A SIDING-PROTEC-
TION BOARD TO SIDE OF HOUSE.
NOTE: Siding-protection board should be long enough to
span 2 wall studs.
NOTE: Adjust the platform assembly so that the air
conditioner will be 1⅛" to 1½" lower than the front (tilted
about 3º to 4º downward to the outside). After proper
installation, condensation should not drain from the
overflow drain hole during normal use. (You may see
condensation in periods of high humidity. However, if
condensation occurs during low or normal humidity, adjust
the slope slightly.) (Fig. 6)
