2. Find the hardware (bolts, washers, nuts) that attach the fume hood to
the skid and remove the hardware. Some hardware is on the sides and
some is on the back.
Sash Weight Release
To protect the fume hood from damage in shipment, the sash weight has been
secured to the back of the fume hood with screws. Simply remove the screws and
make sure the sash cables or chains are on the pulleys or sprockets before
operation of the sash.
NOTE: THE SASH WEIGHT ITSELF WAS INDIVIDUALLY
MATCHED FOR THIS SPECIFIC HOOD AND SHOULD NOT
BE EXCHANGED ON ANY OTHER UNIT.
Installing the Hood on a Supporting
Structure and Hardboard Work Top
The Protector Hood is heavy! Use caution when lifting or
moving the unit.
La Hotte Protecteur est lourd ! Prudence en soulevant ou en
déplaçant l'objet.
When installing the Protector PVC Hood onto the lower hardboard work top,
ensure that the structure can safely support the combined weight of the fume hood
and any related equipment. The hardboard work top is aligned flush with the
back of the fume hood for good airflow: this will provide the correct spacing
under the air foil for proper bypass airflow. The lower base cabinets are
placed flush with the front of the hardboard work top as shown in Figure 3-2.
The hardboard work top supports the PVC Hood and has a cutout to clear
the drain trough.
WARNING: It is important to support the rear of the work
surface and fume hood. The cross support provides support for
the bottom of the work surface. Install the cross support after
the base cabinets and work surface are leveled and before
installing the hood.
AVERTISSEMENT : Il est important de soutenir l'arrière de la
surface de travail et la hotte aspirante. Le support tranversal
soutient le bas de la surface de travail. Installer le support
transversal après que les meubles et la surface de travail soient
nivelés et avant d'installer la hotte.
