Mounting the auxiliary rails
Mount the auxiliary rails so they are flush with the housing return. The auxiliary rails are
the most visible hardware of the Model 600 unit. Any damage to the rails affects the seal
and appearance of the unit. For this reason, cut the rails with a hacksaw, band saw, or
jigsaw, but NOT tin snips.
NOTE: When measuring for the length of the rails, take into consideration the thickness
of the flooring that will be added later. If possible, obtain a sample of the flooring to place
on the floor when you perform the following steps.
