FITTING THE WALL
BRACKETS
1.Draw a vertical line on the wall from the centre of the cooking appliance up to the ceiling, using a spirit level and marking pen. This is to ensure the correct vertical alignment of the appliance.
2.Draw a horizontal line through the vertical at 270mm. Mark the centre positions for the lower bracket fixing screws (1) at 110mm either side of the vertical line. Ensure that the distance between the lowest point of the hood and the cooking appliance beneath meet the clearance requirements quoted above.
3.Draw a horizontal line through the vertical at 45mm from the ceiling or from the maximum height of the chimney. Mark the centre positions for the upper bracket fixing screws (2) at 80mm either side of the vertical line.
4.Draw a horizontal line through the vertical at X. X is the distance between the centre of the top and bottom fixing holes on the
upper chimney stack. Mark the centre positions for the middle bracket fixing screws (3) at 95mm either side of the vertical line.
