After unpacking the WSD SLEEVE from the carton, remove
the FRONT PANEL. Place the WSD SLEEVE in the wall

of the SLEEVE (see Figure 7). Shim at the top of the
SLEEVE, midway between the sides. Drive one #12A x 2"
screw in the top of the sleeve, close to the shim. Install
screws from inside the SLEEVE. If the wall opening is not
framed with wood, use expansion anchor bolts or molly
(toggle) bolts (not provided).
The front panel removed in Step 1 above must be remoun-
ted back in place if masonry work is to be done and/or if the
"WallMaster" CHASSIS is to be installed at a later date.
