2.Place the other chimney bracket on the wall so that its lower edge is 16³⁄₁₆" (41.1 cm) from the ceiling or soffit and level.
Align the center notches of the bracket and the centerline. Mark the centers of the bracket holes.
3.Drill pilot holes.
■If installing into wood, drill 4 - ³⁄₃₂" (2.4 mm) pilot holes.
■If installing into plaster or drywall, drill 4 - ³⁄₁₆" (4.8 mm) pilot holes and insert drywall anchors flush with the wall.
4.Attach each bracket to the wall with 2 - #8 Phillips head mounting screws. Tighten screws securely.
Complete Preparation
1.Determine and make all necessary cuts in the wall for the vent system. Install the vent system before installing the range hood. See the “Venting Requirements” section.
2.Determine the location where the power supply cable will be run through the wall.
NOTE: For wiring flexibility, the terminal box is external to the range hood motor. About 24" (61.0 cm) of wire connects the terminal box to the range hood motor.
Check that the lower chimney cover will hide the selected location.
3.Drill a 1¹⁄₄" (3.2 cm) hole at this location.
4.Mark and drill the terminal box mounting holes.
5.Pull enough power supply cable through the wall to allow for easy connection to the terminal box.

WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install range hood.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
6.Using 2 or more people, lift the range hood and place the mounting hood brackets over the mounting screws. Securely tighten the screws.
7.Level the range hood. Adjust the 2 leveling screws (see Step 1) as needed.
8.If not previously done, center the wiring hole in the terminal box over the hole in the wall, mark the 2 terminal box mounting holes. Drill holes as needed for your installation.
