WALL PREPARATION:

STEP 1 The wall opening required for a "WSD" SLEEVE is 17 1/4" high by 27 1/4" wide.

STEP 2 LINTELS must be used in opening of brick veneer and masonry walls to support the material above the "WSD" SLEEVE.

The following considerations should also be given:

A. Adjustable SUB-BASE SB–89 or other unit support must be provided for panel wall type construction and for

walls less than 8" thick

B. A minimum distance of 1" must be allowed on all sides of the unit to adjacent wall and floor. Where the sub–base

is required, the minimum distance from the floor to the sleeve must be 3 1/2". To minimize chances of short
cycling of the compressor, the minimum clearance between the ceiling and the top of the unit should be 24".
(See Figure 1).

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS:

STEP 1 The "WSD" SLEEVE should be positioned so that the DRAIN EXTENSION extends a minimum of 9/16" beyond the

OUTSIDE WALL (See Figure 1).

STEP 2 The "WSD" SLEEVE must extend a minimum of 7/8" beyond the INSIDE WALL.

STEP 3 The "WSD" SLEEVE must be installed level side to side.

STEP 4 The "WSD" SLEEVE must also be installed with a downward tilt toward the outside of the building. If a le

CAUTION: SLEEVE projections and leveling precautions must be observed to prevent the entry of water into the room.

SLEEVE INSTALLATION:

STEP 1 After unpacking the "WSD" SLEEVE from the carton, remove the FRONT PANEL.

For immediate installation o

Remove the rear WEATHER PANEL. Reverse grille and place lower edge into sleeve tab (Friedrich logo facing out). Align
slots with screw holes. Secure grille with screws.

Place "WSD" SLEEVE in the wall opening following the instructions given in the INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS section.
Attach the SLEEVE to the INSIDE WALL b
Shim at the top of the SLEEVE, midway between the sides. Drive one #12A x 2" screw in the top of the sleeve, close to
the shim. Install screws from inside the SLEEVE. If the wall opening is not framed with wood, use expansion anchor bolts
or molly (toggle) bolts (not provided).

STEP 2 Once the SLEEVE has been installed, ch

Apply shims, if required, to maintain the proper slope.

STEP 3 Caulk the perimeter of the entire opening on the inside and the outside between the SLEEVE and the WALL.

STEP 4 The front panel removed in Step 1 above must be remounted back in place if masonry work is to be done

and/or if the "WSD" CHASSIS is to be installed

PREPARACION DE LA PARED:

PASO 1 La abertura necesaria para la BASE DE EMPOTRAJE "WSD" es de una altura de 17–1/4" pulgada por 27–1/4" pulgada

de ancho (438 mm x 692 mm).

PASO 2 Deben emplearse zapatas (lintels) para sostener el material encima de la base de empotraje en aberturas de paredes

enchapadas de ladrillo o de albañilería. También debe tenerse en cuenta lo siguiente:

B. Deje una distancia mínima de 1" pulgada (25 mm) en cada lado de la unidad, la pared y el piso dyacente. Donde

se necesita una base inferior, la distancia mínima del piso a la base de empotraje será de 3 y 1/2" pulgada (90

. Para minimizar la posibilidad de corto circuito en el condensador, el espacio libre mínimo entre el cielo

raso (techo) y la parte superior de la unidad debe ser de 24" pulgadas (610 mm). (Ver Figura 1).
