4.2 Installation
Before climbing on top of the
vehicle check that the roof is designed to
be walked on. Check with the vehicle
fitter. If it is not, a scaffolding-like
framework will be required.
To ensure proper air conditioner installation it
is essential that you first check whether the
roof is able to support its weight; if it is not the
roof must be reinforced. Select a fairly flat,
horizontal, central area of the roof and check
that there are no obstacles in the interior
which might obstruct diffuser attachment (fig.
1 ref. 6) or the outflow of cool air from the
adjustable vents (fig. 1 ref. 8).
The air conditioner may be installed in one of
two different ways:
•
by using a ventilation aperture already on
the vehicle (ventilation port)
•
by opening a new hole.
4.2.1 Using the existing ventilation port
This solution is practical as long as the port
size is 360 x 360 mm (fig. 2).
Proceed by removing the screws that fix the
port to the roof and then removing the port
itself.
Scrape off all the sealing material left around
the rim of the opening (fig. 3 ref. 1) and putty
screw holes and joints with silicon or other
products available from specialised shops
(fig. 3 ref. 2).
