DRAIN EXTENSION extends a minimum of
9
16

STEP 4 The WSDSLEEVE must also be installed with a downward
tilt toward the outside of the building. If a level is placed
so that it rests on the FRONT and BACK UNIT REST as
shown in Figure 8, a properly installed unit provides a ½
bubble slope to the outside of the building.
STEP 2
STEP 3 Caulk the perimeter of the entire opening on the inside and
the outside between the SLEEVE and the WALL.
STEP 4
NOTICE
SLEEVE projections and leveling precautions
must be observed to prevent the entry of
water into the room.
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.
Note: The sleeve is made with a "built-in" slope front to
back. Placing the carpenter's level on the front and back
unit rests with the sleeve positioned on the sill will provide
you the downward slope needed for proper chassis
operation.
After unpacking the WSD SLEEVE from the carton,
remove the inner and outdoor weather panels (Save
panels on the event chassis is removed for service or
storage). Place the WSD SLEEVE in the wall opening
followin
g the instructions given in the INSTALLATION
REQUIREMENTS. Attach the SLEEVE to the INSIDE
WALL by driving two #12A x 2" screws in each side 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).
Please note that there will be an excess of two #12Ax2"
screws that will not be used.
Once the SLEEVE has been installed, check the LEVEL
again to be sure the ½ bubble downward tilt is maintained.
Note: Apply shims, if required, below the chassis inside
the sleeve front unit rest area, to ensure 1/2 bubble
downward slope front to back.
