NOTE: For 18K to 24K models, the bottom channel has been
factory--installed, and their shapes may differ from the others, but
their functions are similar.
Step 4 —Assembly of the side shutters (curtains) to the
cabinet.
A. Slide the shutters into the top and bottom channels as shown
in Fig. 9. The shutters are identified (on each frame) as ”left”
& ”right”. Attach the shutters to the cabinet using (4) 1/4”
screws on each side.

Step 5 —Installation of Mounting Brackets and First Sealing
Strip
NOTE: Windows come in a variety of different styles.
Therefore, it may be necessary to modify or improve your
particular installation.
A. Attach the bracket assembly to 90 angle support brackets
(Fig. 10) using (2) 1 1/2” bolts Two bolts per bracket. Secure
with the (2) 1/4” lock washers and (2) 1/4”nuts. DO NOT
immediately tighten these bolts as it may be necessary to
adjust the depth of the bracket assembly, depending on the
depth of your window sill. See (Fig. 12).Install the two
leveling screws into the 90 support brackets. Test the bracket
assembly in the window before cabinet installation. If the
leveling screws are distanced too far away from the wall to
provide stability, it may be necessary for you to fill this area
with a solid piece of wood. See (Fig. 13).
B. Measure the inside window sill width and find the center as
shown in (Fig. 11). Align the V--slot in each bracket on these
marks and mount the brackets to the sill using 3/4” screws
provided. Brackets should be perpendicular to the inside
window sill. See (Fig. 11).

C. For proper condensation run--off it will be necessary to adjust
the angle/pitch of the window brackets. This is accomplished
by adjusting the distance of the leveling screw on the outer
wall. The maximum angle/pitch should not exceed more than
3/16”. See (Fig.12).
D. Cut the seal strip to fit the underside of the bottom window
sash. Remove the peel--off backing on the seal and attach it to
this sash. See (Fig. 14).
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in unit damage.
Use a solid piece of wood to provide stability. this will be
required when sills are extra deep (see Fig. 13).
