INSTALLING THE LFA 3.1 OR 4.1 ARM ON A WALL MOUNTING BRACKET

WARNING

Only qualified personnel should install, use or service this equipment.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

CAUTION

Leave the tape and plastic packaging on the extrac- tion arm sections until the arm is completely installed (including mounting the hood). The arm is spring-bal- anced to compensate for the weight of the hood and will spring out quickly if it is not mounted securely, with the hood in place.
