side body bushing of the rear panel. You may
need the body bushing when you relocate the unit,
so be sure make the customer keep it in a safe
place.
(2) After passing the connection pipe through the pipe
hole, connect the connection pipe to the auxiliary
pipes and wrap covering tape around them.
(3) For left-hand connection with piping, bend the
pipes as shown in Fig. 3-11.

Note:
• Bend the connection pipe so that the distance
between the pipe and the wall be 43 mm or less.

tra burrs.
• Cut the pipe a little longer than required.
3-2-2. Burr Removal
(1) Raise burrs with the burr stick or the burr remover.
(Hold the flaring end down to prevent burrs from
