WALL MOUNT INSTALLATION
For Model No.: RAX2830SQB-WM-2 / RAX2836SQB-WM-2
Preparation before Installation
NOTE:
TO AVOID DAMAGE TO YOUR HOOD,
PREVENT DEBRIS FROM ENTERING THE
VENT OPENING.
-
Decide the location of the venting pipe from the
hood to the outside. Refer to Figure 8.
-
A straight, short venting run will allow the hood to
perform more efficiently.
-
Try to avoid as many transitions, elbows, and long
run as possible. This may reduce the performance
of the hood.
-
Temporarily wire the hood to test for proper
operation before installing. If the hood does not
operate, check the circuit breaker or house fuse.
If the hood is still not working, disconnect power
supply and check the continuity of all wire
connections.
-
Peel protective film off the hood (if any).
-
Use duct tape to seal the joints between pipe
sections.
-
If necessary, prepare back wall frame with cross
framing lumber for secure installation. Using
references on Table 2 and measurements on page
14-15, decide the level of the lumber. Refer to
Figure 9.
Hood Installation
CAUTION: USE HAND TOOLS ONLY. DO NOT
OVER TIGHTEN SCREWS. IT MAY CAUSE DAMAGE
TO THE HOOD.
CAUTION: If moving the cooking range is
necessary to install the hood, turn off the power in
an electric range at the main electrical box. SHUT
OFF THE GAS BEFORE MOVING A GAS RANGE.
And use a protective covering to protect cooktop
and/or countertop from damage.
1. Using references on Table 2 and measurements
on page 14-15, mark the leveling point of the hood.
Position mounting screws (provided) on the wall,
leaving 1/8” away from the wall as shown in Figure
10.
2. Optional step for adjusting hood-mounting bracket
height:
-
Loosen hood-mounting brackets at the back of
the hood, adjust brackets and tighten screws
as shown in Figure 11.
3. Align Hood-Mounting Bracket to the two screws on
the wall and hook hood into place. Tighten screws
to secure hood to the wall.
CAUTION: MAKE SURE THE HOOD IS SECURE
BEFORE RELEASING.
