4.1
Installation height
The recommended installation height of the wall mounting
bracket is 3500 mm (11.5 ft.). However, if the extraction height
is often lower than the standard workbench height (900 mm/3
ft), it is recommended to mount the wall mounting bracket at
3000-3250 mm (9.8-10.6 ft).
4.2
Tools and requirements
The following tools and requirements are needed to install and
maintain the extraction arm:
- wall mounting material (depending on wall type) +
appropriate installation tools
- wrench 17 (2)
- wrench 13 (2)
- box spanner 13
4.3
Unpacking
Check that the product is complete. The package should
contain:
- extraction arm including wall mounting bracket, tube, hose
500 mm (20 in.), 2 bushes and rope
- rotatable hood RotaHood
- hose 1650 mm (65 in.)
- counter casing
- bush (2)
- mounting material
If parts are missing or damaged, contact your supplier.
4.4
Mounting
The package contains no mounting hardware for the wall
mounting brackets, since the required mounting hardware
depends on the wall type. The wall mounting brackets can be
mounted on e.g.:
- a thin brick or concrete wall (min. thickness 100 mm), using
four threaded rods M10;
- a thick brick or concrete wall, using four cotter bolts
M10x120x60;
- a steel profile (e.g. H-profile), using four threaded rods M10.
For this purpose two square tubes (30x30x3 mm) need to be
mounted to prevent bending.
WARNING!
Never
use the product for:
- oil mist
- paint mist
- extraction of hot gases (more than 45°C/113°F
continuously)
- explosive environments or explosive substances/
gases
Note: this list is not all-embracing.
ATTENTION!

performed in accordance with directive TRGS 560 by
authorised, qualified and trained persons (skilled)
using appropriate work practices.
