strips if necessary). Fasten strips with wood screws about
3” in from each end.

3. Cut duct opening in wall or cabinet bottom.
4. Drill 1-1/4” electrical wiring opening in wall cabinet bottom.
5. Hold hood up against cabinet bottom and trace keyhole
slots onto cabinet bottom or filler strips. For larger hoods:
Two ¼" dia. holes are provided for secure mounting. They
are located in top of hood approx. 8” each side of center.
Add filler strips for these as necessary. Avoid blocking hood’s
vertical electrical knockout.
6. Screw four 7/8” wood screws from parts bag into exact
center of narrow end of keyhole slots marked on cabinet
bottom. Allow 3/8” of screws to project, so hood can be
fitted into place later.
