5. Adjust the platform assembly
so that the rear of
the air conditioner will be 3/16-inch lower than the
front. This ensures proper water drainage from the
air conditioner.
NOTE:
A projection below the base of the air
conditioner will require the rear of the platform to be
7/16-inch lower than the front to create the 3/16-inch
slant from front to rear.
6. Securely attach a siding-protection board
to the
side of the house where the platform assembly hit the
house. The siding-protection board should be long
enough to span 2 wall studs.
7. Measure the height of the window opening
from the top of the platform assembly. Subtract
20-5/8 inches. Mark this measurement on the plastic
window panel, along the longer side.
8. Clamp the plastic window panel
between a
board and a work table, and cut along the cutting line
with a fine tooth saw. Remove any burrs with a file.
9. Fasten the side channels to the sides of the
unit
using three screws (Item 17) per channel. Make
sure hook ends of channels face toward the back of
unit.
10. Slide the plastic window panel into the panel
frame
with the smooth side to the outside. Slide the
panel frame assembly into the side channels of the
air conditioner cabinet. Make sure the plastic window
panel is firmly enclosed on all sides by the retainer
grooves. (continued)
