Installation Instructions
[_ INSTALL HOOD MOUNTING SCREWS
The mounting screws must enter the horizontal
support or wall studs.
• With the template taped in place, use a punch
to mark mounting bracket screw locations.
• Drill 1/8" pilot holes in 4 of the punched locations
in the lower bracket. If the bottom 2 pilot holes do
not enter wood, enlarge the holes to 3/8" and install
metal wall fastener anchors (provided).
• Remove the template.
• Install the 2 top mounting screws; leave 1/4" gap
between the screw head and the wall. This will allow
the keyhole slot on the hood frame to engage the
screw head.

appropriate #10 masonry screw anchors. Drill
and install per the fastener supplier's instructions.
• Drive screws, by hand, into the fasteners to allow
anchors to expand. Remove the screws.
• Secure the bracket to the wall with wood screws
and/or fasteners.
