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. 5) 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. 7).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. 8).
B. Measure the inside window sill width and find the
center as shown in (Fig. 6). 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. 6).

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
anglelpitch
should not exceed more than 3/16". See (Fig. 7).
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. 9).

Use a solid piece of wood to provide stability. This
will be required when sills are extra deep,
See (Fig. 8).
