Window Installation 5. Installation of Mounting Brackets and the 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) 1/4"X1 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. 6).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 shim this area with a solid piece of wood. See (Fig. 7). B. 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.6). C. Measure the inside window sill width and find the center as shown in (Fig. 8), and measure 12 3/5" either side of the center line. 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. 8). D. Cut the sash seal to fit the underside of the bottom window sash. Remove the peel-off backing on the foam and attach it to this sash. See (Fig. 9). ! CAUTION ! Use a solid piece of wood to provide stability. This will be required when sills are extra deep.
