MOUNTING
1.Locate heater position on wall. This unit has special baffle plates and vent holes in the cover to ensure sufficient convection currents. Make sure that the heater is mounted so that the mounting label located on the end cover points up (Fig. 1).
2.To locate mounting holes, see Specifications Table for heater in question. In standard 16” stud center frame construction, locate wall studding and locate 1 upper and 1 lower mounting hole in center of stud.
3.Drill a pilot hole in metal or wood surfaces using a convenient small size drill.
4.Drill the 4 holes in accordance with sizes in Table 1. Insert anchors where applicable.
5.Remove cover screws.
6.Remove cover.
7.Fasten to wall with screws as listed in Table 1. Turn tight and then back off 1/2 turn, to allow for expansion and contraction.
8.Replace heater cover — fasten with screws and washers removed in Step 5.
