Use the diagram or the hood as a template and
mark the locations on the cabinet for ductwork,

CUT HOLES*
Cut holes at marked locations for duct and electrical
wiring. For the vertical duct, cut out ¾” extra toward
the front of the cabinet so you can move the duct
freely when installing the hood. It may also ease
installation by cutting the hole 10½” instead of 10”.
