Installing
Unit in a Sliding
Window:
_
Attach support
brace to platform as shown (FIG.6). 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 (3/16" lower on out side).
