Plastic Window Panel; Side Channel - Gree 13-04685 Operating Instructions Manual

5. Adjust the platform assembly so that the
rear of the air conditioner will be 3/16 inch
lower than the front. This ensures proper
water drainage from the air conditioner.
NOTE: A projection below the base of the
air conditioner will require the rear of the
platform to be 7/16-inch lower than the
front to create the 3/16-inch slant from front
to rear.
6. Securely attach a siding-protection board
to the side of the house where the platform
assembly hit the house. The siding-protec-
tion board should be long enough to span 2
wall studs.
7. Measure the height of the window open-
ing from the top of the platform assembly.
Subtract 20-5/8 inches. Mark this measure-
ment on the plastic window panel, along
the longer side.
8. Clamp the plastic window panel between
a board and a work table, and cut along the
cutting line with a fine tooth saw. Remove
any burrs with a file.
9. Fasten the side channels to the sides of
the unit using three screws (Item 17) per
channel. Make sure hook ends of channels
face toward the back of unit.
10. Slide the plastic window panel into the
panel frame with the smooth side to the out-
side. Slide the panel frame assembly into the
side channels of the air conditioner cabinet.
Make sure the plastic window panel is firm-
ly enclosed on all sides by the retainer
grooves.
