Prepare the Window and the Support Bracket
Attach the support platform to the sill plate
with 3 type C screws. Loosely attach the
support angle to the bottom of the support
platform using 2 type A screws with washers
and nuts.
Attach the leveling bolt and nut.
Place the sill plate against the lower window
track and firmly against the vertical side edge
of the window frame. Attach the sill plate to
the window stool using 2 type B screws.
NOTE: To overcome interference of the support platform
with the window track or storm window, securely attach a
2
wide shim strip to the window sill. This strip should be
as long as the width of the support platform and flush with
the back edge of the sill. The thickness of the strip should
be controlled by the amount of interference.
Pull the support angle against the outside wall
and tighten the screws on top of the support
platform. Adjust the leveling bolt so the
support platform is level. This will allow the
air conditioner to tilt slightly for proper
drainage. Tighten the nut.
NOTE: DO NOT drill a hole in the bottom of the pan.
The air conditioner is designed to operate with the
bottom of the pan approximately half-full of water.
