STEP 5. Check the window sill and frame to be sure they are in
good condition and functioning.
STEP 6. CABINET MOUNTING – Raise the lower window
the height of the cabinet. Carefully slide the cabinet through
the opening until the lower sill plate channel rests behind the
window sill and the top angle rests against the window (see
Figure 58). Center the cabinet within the opening. Drill three (3)
/ " diameter pilot holes into window sill using the holes in the

cabinet sill plate as a guide. Install three (3) #12 x 2" long screws
(Item 4) (see Figure 58).
STEP 7. OUTSIDE SUPPORT MOUNTING – Refer to Figures 57
and 58. Assemble the support brackets (Item 1) to the
bottom of the cabinet with four (4) 10-24 1" long screws
(Item 2) and four 10-24 flat nuts (Item 3). Adjust the support
brackets, using a combination of the elongated holes of the
bracket and different hole locations in the cabinet, to bring
the bottom support bracket pads in contact with the wall. A
1" x 4" or 2" x 4" SPACER SHOULD BE USED BETWEEN THE
WALL AND SUPPORT THE BRACKETS WHEN INSTALLED
ON ALUMINUM OR VINYL SIDING. Drill
holes and secure the brackets to the wall with two (2) 12A
x 2" long screws (Item 4).
