EUROCHEF - PRO WALL HOOD
STEP 3B: ALTERNATE MOUNTING METHOD
INSTALL HOOD TO SOFFIT OR BENEATH CABINETS
SKIP THIS STEP IF USING WALL MOUNTING METHOD
When necessary, the hood may be installed so that it is supported by the soffit.
• The soffit should be constructed with 2 x 4’s.
• Determine the installation location on the wall.
• Continue the centerline forward on the bottom of the cabinet or soffit.
• If ducting vertically the opening above the hood should allow for the 8" round duct and clearance to slide the hood back against the wall. Requires 8" Min. Opening For Ductwork and Hood Installation
•The 2 x 4 studs must be located as shown in the chart, Dim. A. to accept mounting screws.

•Drill 1/8" pilot holes into the studs at the locations shown in
the top view illustration.
• Affix enclosed paper template to wall
IMPORTANT: FRAMING MUST BE CAPABLE OF SUPPORTING UP TO 150 LBS
Mount Hood onto Soffit or Cabinet
Note: If mounting to the underside of a cabinet with a recessed bottom, install shims to fill the gap.
•Drive mounting screws into the studs until they protrude 1/4". The 1/4" gap will provide clearance to engage the key- hole slots in the top of the hood.
•Lift hood to installation position. Locate house wiring and route through the knockout (from the back or top of the hood).
•Lift hood onto mounting screws. Slide back against the rear wall.
•Tighten mounting screws.
•Add (2) security screws in top left and top right side of hood.
IMPORTANT: For additional support and to minimize vibration during operation, the hood must be secured to the back wall. Use wall anchors to fasten bottom back of hood to the wall.
